We have stayed there twice, and look forward to going again. We love the comfortable, up-to-date rooms, the delicious breakfast, the warm, home-like hospitality of Shari and Joe, and the beauty of the surroundings. Every possible need of travelers has been thought of and provided in such a creative way, and they are so quick to meet any other request you might have. We enjoy talking with them over breakfast, and gleaning local knowledge about area attractions, restaurants. When you come "home" in the afternoon, home-made cookies are waiting. It's just a delightful, quiet, very nice place to 'get away". We can't recommend it highly enough.

An ideal B&B located on a very quiet road right in the middle of wine country--actually it is on the other side of the ridge from the Dundee Hills AVA. The rooms are extremely well equipped and nicely furnished. Very comfortable beds and clean bathrooms. Good rates. The innkeeper is a nice, knowledgeable, and as accommodating as any we have ever met. Good breakfasts and nice snacks. The grounds are very extensive, taking in their own vineyards, a large duck pond/stream, and lots of quiet places to walk and meditate. We have been there twice and would recommend that anyone visiting this part of the Oregon wine country go out of their way to make this their bed for the night

What a find! Even before we arrived, I knew this was a great place! The owners helped us via email to plan our trip, and consulted while we were there on places to go. This B&B is just beautiful--lovely gardens, ponds, fruit trees, and vineyards. It is relaxed and comfortable, nice decor, spacious bedrooms and baths. Mornings, we were greeted with fresh coffee and incredible home-cooked breakfasts. We returned each evening to homemade cookies and genuine smiles and conversation. What a sensory wonder... from the soft music and plush beds inside to the lovely sound of running water and beautiful views outside! And the location is fantastic--close to Dundee, Carlton, Newberg, and McMinnville, and to many, many wineries. Don't overplan your stay beforehand, since the owners are your best resources for the area. The owners deserve 10 stars for hospitality and helpfulness!

We were in Oregon for wine tasting and this B&B was recommended; we weren't disappointed! The hosts were charming and the Inn was very comfortable; it felt like we were home. The open areas were very conducive to our group gatherings at the end of the day. The yard was lovely and the breakfasts were delicious.

My wife and I stayed with Shari and Joe for a couple of days while trying to visit every vineyard in the Valley! What great hosts these two are.Upon arriving Joe and Shari took us on a tour of the grounds telling us about the many flowers and fruit trees as well as how they, a couple of midwesterners came to own such a place. It was a great start to our stay. The grounds of the Lobenhaus are immaculate with an almost Garden of Eden setting ! So many flowers and trees and birds of all varieties! The room was great with a comfy bed and decks to set on and enjoy wine. Breakfasts was delicous and helped us prepare for our days in the vineyards! Fruit,omlets, apple sausage just to name a few of the treats! Along with the pretty setting , Shari and Joe make you feel so at home and also provide valuable tips on what to see and what to do. And of course there are Mom's cookies to boot! We are already making plans to return in the fall to restock our cellar and enjoy ourselves! Larry and Susan

We have so much fun at Lobenhaus with Joe and Shari that there is no other place I would rather be for my Birthday. We wine taste, go to dinner and then come back and play games and enjoy each others company until the late hours. We then get one of the most fabulous Breakfasts in the morning along with great company and a Beautiful place. WE LOVE LOBENHAUS...

The pleasure of our recent wine country tour was considerably enhanced by a delightful overnight stay with Joe and Shari Lobenstein at Lobenhaus. My wife and I have stayed at many B &Bs all over the country. Lobenhaus would definitely have to rank way up at the top. With fall colors at their best, its location in the rolling hills near Carlton is quite spectacular. Our stroll along Abby Road before breakfast was like walking into a picture postcard. Breakfast was delicious and the menu thoughtfully prepared. I understand that the B & B facility, attached to the Lobenstein's home, was designed and built in large part by Joe. The split-level plan is attractive and very comfortable. After dinner in Carlton, we curled up in the living room to watch a movie on the giant big screen TV. One of the first things I noticed is that everything at Lobenhaus is immaculate. I'd like to know their secret for keeping things so spotless (probably a lot of hard work). Finally, meeting Joe and Shari, and having a nice visit with them, made the whole experience particularly enjoyable. We will fondly remember our time at Lobenhaus and hope to return in the future.

We decided to make Lobenhaus the hub of our 5-day visit to the northern Willamette Valley wine country. Joe and Shari made us feel at home from the moment we arrived by getting us orientated and settled into our accomodations. Everything is perfect from the one-of-a-kind breakfasts to the common areas and guest rooms. If you don't know the area, day trip planning and area dining is a cinch with Joe and Shari. You also haven't lived until you have had Shari's mom, Ruth, berry compote. A wonderful couple running a fabulous place. We did not want to leave. Jack & Terry Thew Naperville, IL

We wanted to stay at the best B&B to celebrate our 45th wedding anniversary! Lobenhaus B&B is definitely the top one. We were warmly greeted by Shari and Joe the hosts, who offered us fresh home baked cookies. Our room was very well decorated and was very clean and updated. The room had its own outside entrance onto a deck which overlooked a spectacular water feature which Joe recently completed. He also has a flower garden and pond in the front yard with cool shade trees. The back of the B&B has a lovely creek and ponds with bridges over to the other side to take walks in the forest and vineyards. The main room is inviting with 2 levels of TV or reading rooms which over look the large pond where wild life abounds: Ducks, Canada geese, beavers, deer and many song birds. The breakfast was hearty, homemade, with fresh produce from the local area and was enough to tide us past lunch. Their location is in the heart of wine country, and the Lobenteins offer a guest refrigerator to chill your wine pick of the day. Their location is perfect for day trips to the coast or mountains, as well as staying in the valley for many side tours, which Joe and Shari can tell you about. They can also recommend the best resturants to visit. Beautiful setting, great value, wonderful hosts!

We've stayed with Shari and Joe many times, ever since they opened. We have seen how unbelievable hard work from both of them have evolved into a wonderful Bed and Breakfast with beautiful gardens and vineyards. The breakfasts are delicious and Shari often serves something she remembers as a particular favorite. The rooms are meticulous clean and beautiful and regularly updated with new decor. The beds are extremely comfortable. Shari and Joe are very helpful in finding wonderful restaurants. We have been very pleased with suggestions of vineries to visit--often new, that we would never have found by ourselves. Most of all I enjoy visiting with Joe and talking about our common love of gardening.
