This is one of our all-time favorite places in Oregon! Autumn is the perfect time to visit the hot spring pools and gardens at Belknap Hot Springs. If you don't mind the roughly two-hour drive from Albany, it's well worth the time to visit. You can book overnight accommodations on their website, or you can pay a walk-in fee to visit the pools and gardens for a day.
For some indoor fun, check out Round1 in Eugene! Round1 is an excellent arcade and fun center that is about a 45 minute drive away from Albany. Here you can enjoy arcade games, bowling, billiards, ping-pong, and karaoke. This is one of our go-to date night spots!
