A real getaway that's not so far away

Only 38 scenic miles east of  Roseburg, the Steamboat Inn may well be the most memorable part of your Umpqua Region wine country tour!  Who says you can't have it all?  

Steamboat Inn will soothe your nerves, pamper your palate, delight your senses and cater to your comfort, all in an unspoiled setting on the North Umpqua River in Southern Oregon.  Here the only sounds are those of a rushing river and local birds, the primary scents those of evergreens and blooming flowers.

Serious fly fishermen try to keep this all a secret, since the stretch of river where North Umpqua RiverSteamboat Inn is located is renowned for its summer and fall runs of wild Steelhead and has been for decades.  The upper stretches of the North Umpqua have been fished by fly anglers since the 1920s, and many of the anglers who came were among the best fly fishermen of their day. 

While many Inn guests come for the challenging fishing of the North Umpqua River, many others come for the lovely and secluded accommodations, the spectacular wilderness beauty, and Steamboat Inn's much-acclaimed food.

Dining at Steamboat Inn

Each evening, in the summer and on winter weekends, the staff at Steamboat Inn dedicates itself to a single purpose -- the dining pleasure of the Inn's guests and those with dinner reservations.  The "Evening Dinner" is far from the ordinary restaurant dining affair. 

At the dinner hour, the festive experience begins when guests gather in the library to sip an aperitif and enjoy appetizers.  The first course is served, and guests are invited to be seated in the main dining room at massive wood-slab tables.  The family-style meal, as the name suggests, consists of one sumptuous menu served to all guests.   (With advance notice, the Inn is happy to accommodate any food allergies, strong dislikes or vegetarian diets.)

Savory side dishes, homemade bread and Oregon wines accompany the meal.  The meal is  followed by a tempting dessert made for the occasion. 

The Cafe at Steamboat Inn

If you're passing by, either on your way to Crater Lake National Park or on the way back, stop in and visit a while. During the daytime, the Inn is not only a gathering place for fishermen, but for tourists and locals who savor "honest home cooking."  The daytime restaurant offers an early dinner special for those not attending the later Evening Dinner, as well as breakfast and lunch.  The menu features homemade soups, pies, breads and other delicious treats.

Whether for dining, lodging, fishing or all three, why not join us on the river.
