We had a lovely stay at Arden Forest. The location is perfect, about a 10 minute walk to town through a quiet, leafy residential area. The off-street parking was convenient. The grounds were beautiful; I wish we'd had time to spend a few hours relaxing in the garden. Our room was great -very clean with a comfy bed. The shower temperature and pressure were so appreciated after a chilly night of camping just before our visit. We barely interacted with the hosts, which was fine. Overall, a terrific option for Ashland and a great value if you book a few months out. Highly recommended.

Spent a week at the Arden Forest Inn going to OSF performances. There is a nice Guest kitchen easy to access that is kept stocked w Kcups and a large frig where you can store your own milk and breakfast items. Our private patio made our stay wonderfully cozy. Pool was clean and refreshing. Very nice bed. We’ll be back.

Let me begin by saying that I have never given a 5 star rating to a hotel but Arden Forest Inn has earned it! Our room was very private and spacious. The attention to detail and special touches were evident throughout. The location is far enough away from the busy plaza but close enough to walk. Having a fully stocked guest kitchenette was another plus. We'll be back!

The innkeepers have wonderful taste in room decorations which makes for a relaxing "customized" experience. I stayed in the "carriage house" which is just off the main house. There is a swimming pool 30 steps from my room. The bed was very comfortable, and the thermostat worked well, thankfully, because the high temps were in the 90s. The backyard is lush and relaxing, with tables and chairs in several locations for games or quiet conversation. The wind chimes complement the surroundings beautifully. Yesterday while I was in the pool, a male and female deer casually walked into into the backyard, accompanied by their two fawns. The room was on the small side compared to the corporate inn/motel chains.

We would definitely stay here again and recommend The Arden Forest Inn. Our 3 night stay was very enjoyable; we walked to town for meals, shopping and also to catch our shuttle to white water rafting with Noah’s Adventures. (Noah’s is a top notch company! The lunch was delicious and very generous! We also enjoyed a dinner show at the Oregon Cabaret Theatre. (Generous and fair pricing for dinner) We had time to cool down after walking home from town in the refreshing pool! It felt like we had the place to ourselves! We were lucky enough to share the grounds with a Mama doe and her darling fawns. What a treat that was! The shared kitchen has a Keurig and coffee cups along with cream in the fridge that we enjoyed each morning. This place is charming and a perfect place to stay in Ashland! We went to Skout three times to have beer and once for dinner. It’s along the creek and across from Lithia park, which is a fun people watching (and deer) spot! Skout had the best street tacos!! Generous portions of meat and accompaniments! They also carry many beers on tap and allow several tastings! They carry gluten free beer too! What a fun weekend!

While past guests have enjoyed it, the owners seem to have run out of energy. We learned that they no longer serve the breakfasts that drew praise in the past. There are now only three rooms, which are “fine” but nothing special. The garden in back is lovely, but there are only hard metal chairs with no cushions and no lounge chairs at all. It is very convenient if you are walking to downtown or the Shakespeare Festival, but that’s the best I can say about it.

The innkeeper was very friendly and polite. Charming room with unique furnishings and art. Great location - walk to downtown. Good quality sheets, towels and toiletries. Lovely back garden. The building I stayed in - carriage house - is pretty old and could use carpet replacement, stepping stones, roof gutter repair. The convenient guest kitchen had a strong odor like someone was making kombucha or something.

Very clean, very quaint, and cozy comfortable. The best part though, was the 9:00am breakfast every day the hosts prepared and shared that usually lasted all morning because of the friendly and engaging conversations they provided. It was as if we were best friends even though we had just met. The best bed and breakfast we've ever experienced.

This is an adorable inn that is close to downtown Ashland and across the street from our daughter's apartment. The proprietors were so kind, the room was clean and cute, and we had a private deck outside our door. We were only there for one night, but we really enjoyed it and will come back!

Great Location. Beautiful yard with cozy privacy pool. Surrounded by plants and dears. Comfortable bed. Good pressure shower head. Hosts served a real breakfast with fresh fruit bowl and a main course - Haven't found such an authentic home-made omelet + biscuits anywhere else. Family enjoyed staying in the main house. As my suggestion, I wouldn't book the downstairs bedroom in the main house as the upstairs walk in the wooden floor makes considerable noise for people downstairs - I didn't see the others accommodation but for those matters, I definitely recommend a separate accommodation from the main house.

We had a lovely stay at Arden Forest. The location is perfect, about a 10 minute walk to town through a quiet, leafy residential area. The off-street parking was convenient. The grounds were beautiful; I wish we'd had time to spend a few hours relaxing in the garden. Our room was great -very clean with a comfy bed. The shower temperature and pressure were so appreciated after a chilly night of camping just before our visit. We barely interacted with the hosts, which was fine. Overall, a terrific option for Ashland and a great value if you book a few months out. Highly recommended.

The grounds were beautiful; I wish we'd had time to spend a few hours relaxing in the garden. Our room was great -very clean with a comfy bed. The shower temperature and pressure were so appreciated after a chilly night of camping just before our visit. We barely interacted with the hosts, which was fine. Overall, a terrific option for Ashland and a great value if you book a few months out. Highly recommended.

Let me begin by saying that I have never given a 5 star rating to a hotel but Arden Forest Inn has earned it! Our room was very private and spacious. The attention to detail and special touches were evident throughout. The location is far enough away from the busy plaza but close enough to walk. Having a fully stocked guest kitchenette was another plus. We'll be back!

Bed and breakfast converted into hotel. Very small and charming, casita like rooms. Nice guest “kitchen”. Close to downtown.

They no longer serve breakfast, but the hospitality was great, bed was very comfortable, and nice outdoor seating in a garden area where we were visited by deer. It is in easy walking distance of downtown with excellent restaurants and the Shakespeare Festival theaters.

We try to stay at Arden Forest Inn whenever we visit Ashland. Lovely comfortable rooms, nice grounds including a pool. Breakfast is a treat. Conversation at breakfast is often stimulating.

Great Location. Beautiful yard with cozy privacy pool. Surrounded by plants and dears. Comfortable bed. Good pressure shower head. Hosts served a real breakfast with fresh fruit bowl and a main course - Haven't found such an authentic home-made omelet + biscuits anywhere else. Family enjoyed staying in the main house. As my suggestion, I wouldn't book the downstairs bedroom in the main house as the upstairs walk in the wooden floor makes considerable noise for people downstairs - I didn't see the others accommodation but for those matters, I definitely recommend a separate accommodation from the main house.

Very clean, very quaint, and cozy comfortable. The best part though, was the 9:00am breakfast every day the hosts prepared and shared that usually lasted all morning because of the friendly and engaging conversations they provided. It was as if we were best friends even though we had just met. The best bed and breakfast we've ever experienced.

Disappointing that this property no longer makes or offers breakfast. (Owner told us he was tired of doing it!) Had we not seen the photos of the delicious breakfasts, we would have booked somewhere else! The grounds were pretty,but the very old accordion door on the bathroom was less than ideal.

This is a charming B&B a bit off the beaten track but walkable to to the Festival and downtown. The breakfasts were delicious and elegantly prepared.

We enjoyed every moment of our stay. Our hosts, Corbett and Bill were exceptional. The breakfasts were amazing enough to feed an army. Staying at Arden felt like we were staying with family. Even strangers became friends thanks to the warm of our hosts and the home.

I had a very lovely stay at the Arden forest Inn. Corbet and Bill were wonderful hosts, and we had some delightful conversations during our delicious breakfasts. The room was very clean and the bed was comfortable. I can't say enough about the breakfasts -- both the conversations and the food made it a memorable stay.

While past guests have enjoyed it, the owners seem to have run out of energy. We learned that they no longer serve the breakfasts that drew praise in the past. There are now only three rooms, which are “fine” but nothing special. The garden in back is lovely, but there are only hard metal chairs with no cushions and no lounge chairs at all. It is very convenient if you are walking to downtown or the Shakespeare Festival, but that’s the best I can say about it.

Such a peaceful getaway and easy walk to downtown ashland. I'm very happy that I decided to stay here to experience the neighborhood culture of Ashland instead of staying on the main stretch of Inns. There were so many deer and other wildlife in the garden! Also, the hosts were very nice and accommodating. 100% recommend!

Lovely property hidden in a quiet neighborhood, walking distance to downtown and Oregon Shakespeare Theatre. Could use a quieter bathroom fan but all else good!
