    Beautiful 150 year old home with very friendly and helpful innkeepers. They allow us free range in most of the house and then serve a wonderful delicious breakfast.

    The historical Victorian house was beautiful and such a homey feeling while away from home. The rooms were comfortable and the upstairs porch available to guests looks out on lovely gardens and agricultural fields. We looked forward to the indulgent breakfasts with fresh fruit and decadent coffee drinks. The hosts were friendly and welcoming. They checked in each day to see what we were planning and find out if they could suggest any improvements on our plans. All of their suggestions were fantastic and we definitely saw things we wouldn't have without talking to people "in the know"! We left feeling more like family than guests, so we highly recommend staying at Joslyn House!

    Minutes from Hood River. Diana and Eric are kind and caring hosts. Very knowledgeable about the area and all that is has to offer. Nice personable service and a tasty breakfast.

    Nicest people, greatest breakfast, best activity recommendations ever. I would not recommend staying here, though, if you have environmental allergies or are very sensitive to noise.
