Things To Do
Silver Falls State Park
This is Randy and Alexis's favorite place to hike. Located about 45 mins away, it is a perfect day trip to capture the 10 waterfalls! We recommend doing the medium length trail starting at the South Falls.
Visit the Pacific Coast
Our Favorite places - Pacific City - hike up Cape Kiwanda sand dune and celebrate your triumph by drinking beer at Pelican Brewing.

Saturday Farmers Market
Our favorite place to go on Saturdays in the summer. Tons of local artists, food, carts, and usually local performers.
Kayak the Willamette
Independence is a 10 minute drive from the vineyard and June is one of the most beautiful months. If you are staying a few days we encourage you to heck out the local landscape.
