Inn Details

Independence House is a classic 1895 Italianate on a quiet corner of the historic river town of Independence, Ore. Walk to our reviving Main Street, where you’ll find fine antiques, great food, or a peaceful stroll by the river.

We are two miles from Western Oregon University, and a short drive to some of the best wineries in Oregon. Enjoy some peaceful “porch time,” or order a gourmet box lunch for a day trip spent exploring the area. Nestled in the wine center of Oregon’s picturesque Willamette Valley, Independence House is less than a half hour from Salem, Corvallis and McMinnville. The ocean beaches, Mount Hood and Silver Falls State Park are about an hour's drive away. And if a lazy "Sunday" drive is more to your liking, the Willamette Valley offers wonderful views in all seasons.

Nature-lovers, bicyclists, romantic couples, writers and artists, and people seeking quiet all find what they want here.
