Sure, you could stay at one of the chain hotels in town but with a sweet B&B minutes from downtown why would you? Pat runs a cozy, clean and charming home away from home here. I absolutely LOVED my room with all of its vintage charm (check out that adorable guest towel in the 1920s-era bathroom!). Breakfast was delicious and I felt very well cared for. It truly is like staying at a friend’s house. Will definitely stay here for future trips to Corvallis.

Wonderful!
We came to Corvallis to a regional swim meet. We tried to book a motel close to the swim center, but they were full. Well thank goodness. We really lucked out with the Hanson Country Inn. It is a beautiful old home on a hill only tem minutes away from the swim center. Pat is a very lovely gracious hostess. There is ample parking. The breakfasts are to die for and we were there for three of them.

The Place to Go
What it is: a piece of art, a place to come back to feel safe and rejuvenate, a place to step out of the stream of chaos, information and foolishness and reflect on the actions of the world and your reaction to it, and at least a comfortable home like place to rest and stay while you are in the area. What it is not: it is not a chain hotel/motel, it is not brand new, it is not a party dive, it not the same every time and it is not a resort. Referencing William P's review, Pat does get business out of the way as soon as you meet her. And she does stay out of the guests business so she wont interact with you unless you do something wrong or engage her in some conversation. Oh, and the cat... I am a dog person but this cat has a great personality. It showed me to the room and after a short time we were getting along. Actually I enjoyed it's company more then anyone that knows me would expect and wouldn't mind if it stayed in the room. But after it got a rub down from me and then chased after my belt buckle as I dragged the belt on the floor, he left. Our experience: we arrived around 8 PM while it was raining and dark. As we approached the door we found a note asking guests to call a phone number to be let in. The house was built in the early 1900's and seemed to be built as a "boarding house." Although, we wiped our feet as we entered the house it was so clean that I wished to take off my shoes before I entered but was told it was not necessary and was shown to a room upstairs. The room is large, and filled with antique furniture. After being shown around the room and the adjacent sitting room and bathroom, we were pleasantly surprised by the presence of a snack and drink. We were asked when we would be down for breakfast and told that it would be ready for us when we did. The next morning, breakfast was ready when we were and simply great. After morning meetings, I got back midday and sat in the living room to read the local and national news paper. It was a bit cold out so I got up to get a sweater when Pat came out and offered to get the fire working in the fireplace. It really wasn't necessary but she did and offered me something to drink. I accepted some tea as long as she joined me and we had a pleasant chat which ended only by my schedule of an afternoon meeting. We got back after having dinner in town, and when we got to the Inn, we took a moment to enjoy the site of several deer comfortably grazing on the front lawn. The next morning breakfast was even better than the first. I asked if Pat would join us during breakfast coffee so we could get some information about the town and local events. She did and it was such a nice conversation. I was so comfortable that it was difficult to leave. Don't look for perfection but in its entirety the stay was perfect for us and the best we had in quite some time. For us there is no need to look elsewhere ... This is the place to stay.

September 12, 2016jerrymarshJust missing out on what it could be.
It must have been a beautiful location once upon a time. It was still nice, but the city is encroaching in. The house is beautiful, but showing it's age. The weekend we were there it was very hot. I did find a window air conditioner in a closet and installed it myself. It keep blowing the electric circuit which is why it was probably in the closet. The shower was truly awful. There was no water pressure and the water only fell out by gravity. Very nice breakfast. Overall it just showed its age too much.

I wouldn't stay anywhere else!
This was my first stay at a bed and breakfast and I must say that it far exceeded my expectations. I love historic homes so I was immediately smitten with the charm and character of the home itself as well as all of the antiques. The owner, Pat, is a remarkable artist and her art is displayed in the home which only adds to its beauty. My room had a very soft, wonderfully comfortable bed, a sitting room, and a huge, private terrace that overlooked the lush gardens. The roses and hydrangeas were in full bloom and the weather was gorgeous so I was able to enjoy the views. My private bathroom was just a few steps away and it had great moldings and a shower head tall enough for me (not always the case). It was decorated beautifully. The breakfasts were 5-star and I ended up skipping lunch both days since I was still full! I enjoyed a fruit-plate and muffin starter, followed by waffles with blueberry compote and a delicious cream. The poached egg and croissant with garden-fresh tomato, avocado and hollandaise sauce were divine! One guest ate 2! Beautiful presentation-both the plating and the dining room views. The staff were welcoming, attentive and friendly. I felt like I was visiting with family. The grounds were amazing with lovely gardens: vegetable and flower. Not from Oregon, I was in awe of the figs, English walnuts, blackberries, apples, plums, and pears all growing on the property. Amazing! The wifi was extremely fast, which is always a plus. The location was great with a beautiful view of the mountains, but only .5 mile from OSU stadium. We also enjoyed an afternoon at the ocean which is an easy, 1 hour drive away. Terrific place! I would never stay anywhere else and am actually returning in November. See you soon, Pat!
