Stay in Locke, an historic landmark. This charming studio apartment is cozy and comfortable. It's the perfect place to stay while exploring the little town of Locke and the beautiful Delta. It features a brand new bathroom and kitchen area with cabinets designed by a resident artist/cabinetmaker. The kitchen has everything you need if you are in the mood to cook. There is a Full size Murphy Bed and a single size roll out cot. It would also be suitable for an artist or writer as a retreat and escape. Ask us about long-term stays.
Visit our gift shops and galleries. We have an excellent Chinese restaurant-Locke Garden and there is always Al's Place (aka Al the Wop's) steak house and pub. Walk to the back of town to the Delta Meadows River Park where the waters of the Snodgrass Slough provide fishing and gentle waters for kayaking or canoeing. Delta Meadows gives a glimpse into a Delta of 150 years ago with sloughs, a natural island, and meadows full of wildlife such as black-tailed deer. The Delta is also a flyway for the Sandhill Crane in the fall and winter. Come see these majestic birds as the sun sets.
Experience this unusual historic town. An artist's retreat, a photographer's dream and a nature lover's paradise. Feel the cool Delta breezes in the summer evenings.
Experience a Delta Ecotour. Take a short walk to historic Walnut Grove. Public dock in Walnut Grove also.
Step into Locke and you will feel you have come to a place that is frozen in time. Walk into our house and you will feel at home.
