LOCATION LOCATION LOCATION: Never has it been so true. Centrally located near the famous Rogue River, our home allows you to venture out and explore the entire Rogue Valley and associated areas. At LOG HEAVEN dreams really do come true! As you approach with rising anticipation at every turn on a paved highway, you will find easy access at the green "Vineyard-style" gated entrance to our property. This is a unique opportunity to experience the best of rustic chic. We will welcome you with a warm fire or a cold glass of lemonade, depending on the season. You will have free use of our home which offers superb privacy for that long awaited vacation or respite for writing, reading or quiet solitude. Our intent is to welcome you and then allow you to enjoy our property as if it were your own, in peace and without distraction from the world outside. We live off site nearby and can be available for guest services and are only a phone call away. We offer extended stays for those who may be relocating or house hunting. We welcome the opportunity to negotiate a rate that will work for you. Just Ask! Two couples sharing works well due to the three story, two sleeping areas design. Occasionally, we accommodate a third couple or single parent on a portable queen bed located in a large office area with a main floor bathroom. Our home features quality and comfort, along with huge outdoor living space, deck furniture, hot tub and BBQ.
From this secluded lodging, you may decide to sit on the covered porch in a rocking chair and do absolutely nothing, covered with a quilt if brisk and in shade during the warm summers. A dip in the hot tub will soothe the soul or walking along a country road allows you to view wildflowers blooming, squirrels playing in the trees, birds visiting the many feeders, and livestock grazing in the fields. Enter a world of privacy in a remote forested setting, yet close enough to enjoy world class entertainment at the Britt Music Festival in nearby Jacksonville, a National Historic Registry town straight out of the Old West. Movies have been made in this quaint location only 40 minutes West. Visit the House of Mystery in Gold Hill, another 1850's site. Crater Lake is a seventyfive minute drive from Log Heaven but make time to stop for lunch and homemade pie at Becky's Cafe along the Rogue River Gorge. Fish the famous Rogue River near the lumberjack towns of Shady Cove and Prospect or take a short hike to Mill Creek Falls and see The Avenue of the Boulders. If you prefer theater, Oregon Shakespeare Festival in Ashland is world renowned for many theatrical productions, some of which involve William Shakespeare! Cabaret Theater is on the lighter side and Ashland is a twinkling paradise during the winter Holiday Season. Should you prefer to make a tour of the Southern Oregon Wineries, Log Heaven is ideally situated within a day's drive of over twenty-five local wineries including Weisinger, EdenVale, Bridgeview, Del Rio,Troon,Paschal,Valley View, Jacksonville, Crater Lake Cellars, Roxy Ann and many more. You may want to sample world famous bleu cheese at Rogue Creamery or buy some gifts at Harry and David's Country store. Two hours away is Cave Junction where The Oregon Caves will take you back in time and you can wander through the Chateau and take a cave tour. Once you reserve our home for your next getaway, we are sure you will return and tell your friends it is a "not to be missed" opportunity to enjoy LOG HEAVEN and Southern Oregon's Rogue River Valley.

Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 1998
Steve is currently a Captain for United Airlines and Sherry is a retired Management Consultant. They grew up next door to each other, here in Southern Oregon, have been happily married 42 years, and have family living and working here in Medford. Both are graduates of The University of Oregon and are season ticket holders for DUCK FOOTBALL. They have Navy in their background and adventure in their future, as they travel extensively, play bridge and golf, and love to entertain travelers. Having lived 18 years in Lake Tahoe, they enjoy yearly trips to Crater Lake for a snow fix!
Why the Owner Chose Medford
We are both from the Rogue Valley and moved here, next door to each other, in 1957. Since then we have lived in Eugene, Florida, Texas, the San Francisco Bay Area and in Incline Village at Lake Tahoe for 18 years. We have family here and needed our own accommodations when visiting. We moved back to Medford permanently in 2005. We have our LOG HEAVEN close to town but out far enough to enjoy peace and quiet, birds, animals, nature at it's best where it is always green with forested mountain views.
The Unique Benefits of this Country House / Chateau
Twenty different types of birds frequent the feeders. Water features bring animals close. Peace emminates from the decks as you enjoy spectacular views of countryside. A furnished log home is on a different wavelength of enjoyment due to its non-standard rooms and quality materials. A hammock allows one to lie back and read a book before getting in the hottub for a well deserved soak. Forested scenery blocks out the white noise of town. Rest and relaxation abound at Log Heaven.
