Twenty miles away from the eccentric city of Portland lies the Willamette Valley. Known for its lush rolling hills, fertile farmland, and, most notably, its thriving wine industry, this region of Oregon is quickly becoming Napa\u2019s most notable rival.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The drive from Portland to the Willamette Valley is undoubtedly peaceful, consisting of a two-lane highway that hugs acres upon acres of flourishing wineries. One of the wineries, located down a winding road just off the interstate, is home to The Allison Inn and Spa, a luxury resort that couples elegance with comfort.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Allison, which was built from the ground up in 2009 by seventh-generation Willamette Valley residents Ken and Joan Austin, strikes the perfect balance between modern and homey. The sprawling 35-acre space is surrounded by panoramic views of both the wine country and the surrounding farmland, which all 77 deluxe guest rooms and eight suites have different vantage points off.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Speaking of the accommodations, the rooms are as spacious as the setting itself. Each one has oversize windows that showcase the property, gas fireplaces that warm up the space, and large upholstered window seats that make for the perfect coffee spot. Not to mention, most feature sizable balconies with patio chairs as well as grandiose bathtubs that are accompanied by bath salts made at the hotel\u2019s beloved spa.<\/p>\n

A few floors above the spa lies JORY, a fine-dining farm-to-table restaurant that offers a fresh, creative menu that spotlights food from the hotel\u2019s very own one-and-a-half acre Chef\u2019s Garden. At JORY \u2013 which is named after volcanic soil that cultivates many of Oregon\u2019s grapevines \u2013 food and wine aficionados can enjoy local delicacies like pan-seared wild chinook, Alaskan halibut, northwest mussels, foraged mushroom soup, grilled lamb loin, and more. (A la carte, chef\u2019s tasting menus, and in-room dining options are available.) As for what to pair their meals with, diners can peruse an extensive menu that includes over 850 wines, most of which are organic, biodynamic, and sustainably produced by winemakers in the region. Although a wine list with that number of labels might seem daunting, fear not, because the team\u2019s insightful sommeliers will be there to help.<\/p>\n

As the name implies, one of The Allison Inn and Spa\u2019s most prized possession is, of course, the spa. This relaxing oasis features 12 treatment rooms (including a Vichy room) as well as a large indoor swimming pool, whirlpool, and sun terrace. The spa offers a wide range of treatments including, but not limited to, therapeutic massages, facials, and even signature \u201cpinotherapy\u201d treatments. (Think treatments that incorporate the valley\u2019s renowned pinot noir grapes.)<\/p>\n

To really take advantage of all resort has to offer, be sure to tour Rain Dance Vineyard, which is located just steps away from the lobby. Linger through fields of pinot noir and pinot gris, and enjoy a wine tasting on the property. Oh, and don\u2019t miss out on the llamas, which can be found in the pastures just beyond the vineyards.\u00a0<\/p>\n
