You can have a great "holiday for 2" in Oregon - indoors and out! Attractive resort towns, an outstanding scenic coastline, and lots of accessible wilderness make a romantic getaway in Oregon an excellent choice.

And for romantic lodging in Oregon, there's not just the usual choice of B&B's and resorts, because the state has one of the best selections of romantic seaside inns and hotels to be found anywhere. Summer weekends can bring crowds to popular spots, but a quiet beach or town is usually only minutes away.

The Best Time for a Romantic Getaway in Oregon - probably mid-spring (May) or anytime after labor day in September when most vacationers have returned home. But for a winter romantic escape, the Oregon coast is home to some great little inns and guesthouses where you can sip some wine and listen to the crashing surf...

More of Oregon's Most Romantic Spots 

1. Multnomah Falls & the Columbia River Gorge - a definite highlight "inland" for any romantic getaway in Oregon. A wonderfully scenic wilderness and outdoor recreation area, with the second highest year-round waterfall in America. After exploring the many nearby hiking trails, wind down with a drink and dinner at the Multnomah Falls Lodge (we hear they have a great champagne Sunday brunch!).

Active couples should visit nearby Hood River, a windsurfing, kayaking and rafting hot spot. The orchards and wineries of the Hood River Valley and a scenic rail journey on the Mt. Hood Railroad are extra reasons for exploring this area.

They've got a choice of Oregon romance packages available to take advantage of the heritage-style rooms, spa facilities and fine dining. The Columbia Gorge Scenic area is only 5 minutes away, and the resort is just 20 minutes from Portland.

3. Willamette Valley Wine Country - How about a little taste of France in Oregon? Following the vineyards along the South Yamhill River is a great romantic day trip from Portland. Just an hour's drive from the city, you'll find rolling hills, sleepy little communities, and some fine Pinot noir as well. There are numerous tasting centers and wine bars, and some relaxed country inns, B&B's and restaurants in and around Newberg and McMinnville.

4. Ashland - This vibrant community just 15 miles from the California border is known for it's fine dining, good selection of romantic hotels and B&B's, and live performances of music and plays, including the Oregon Shakespeare Festival.
