Willows Lodge and the Barking Frog restaurant rest in the heart of one of Washington State?s premier wine destinations. The Lodge and restaurant were built to give guests a high-end experience incorporating excellent food, pristine service and comfortable surroundings in a relaxed Pacific Northwest setting.

Rustic Elegance in the Design | Refinished 100-year-old timbers decorate the property. Builders sourced these beams from buildings torn down in the Port of Portland, Oregon, and refurbished them to use in the Lodge?s construction. Designers also fabricated tables and other furnishings from these recycled timbers.
The resort boasts 92 fireplaces and 82 rooms. Guest rooms feature one fireplace, and certain meeting rooms have two. Several years ago, owners realized the need for additional meeting space, and a few bedrooms were joined together to create a single new area with two fireplaces making for an even more inviting space for meetings. In March, my daughter Brittney and I visited Willows Lodge. This time of year the weather is still cold. We entered the Lodge and were immediately enveloped in warmth from both the lobby?s enormous fireplace and the staff?s hospitality. Our large room encompassed a garden view, fireplace, soaking tub, refrigerator, and a king-size bed. The room afforded rustic elegance, and the 300-count Egyptian cotton sheets along with a snuggly duvet dressed the bed making the room extra cozy.
