Journey Through Time Scenic Byway Hotels

"Relaxing, nice, great breakfast"

"I was a lil worried traveling with 2 kids, and staying at Biggs Junction, but I do think it was one of the nicer and safer hotels we could have stayed at. Would totally recommend... would have been more comfortable if my husband was with us, but that was more so general use/location and not the hotel itself."

"We were there to celebrate my oldest child's graduation. It was a nice trip and not far from the Mary Hill Stonehenge and museum. I loved the view from our room! It was so nice to be able to sit on the deck and watch the river and look at the dam! So many types of birds to watch as well! The staff were amazing and friendly! Unfortunately, there is no elevator and my husband has a bad knee, but he managed to hobble his way up the stairs. That was our fault for not requesting a bottom floor room. Would definitely stay there again and I have been telling my family to look into this hotel if they are ever out that way. "

"Great experience. Welcoming staff. Nicely updated room. Great pillows and towels! Comfy bed, great coffee and breakfast. Convenient, walkable location!!"

"Thank you"

"Great spot for stopping after long day of driving "

"clean, quiet with friendly and helpful staff. Very nice place to stay and close to lots of eating establishments, all within walking distance. Good continental breakfast as well. Recommended!"

"This property was so cool! Definitely a step into the past. Beautifully refreshed! The staff was amazing. Walkable downtown. Safe and quiet. The park is right next door. Very pet friendly. Gorgeous views. I want to come back in winter and check out Anthony Lakes ski resort!"

"Very unique. It's a step back in time. Don't expect modern resort but you will get friendly authentic service provided by local people who bend over backwards to fulfill your needs and interests. Dufur is a very small old rural historical town in, what some would call, the middle of nowhere. If you want seclusion and enjoy country walks or bike rides and meeting really interesting people the Balch Hotel is for you as it was for us. The people really are fantastic. Debr helped us with a sticky situation because of some booking confusion and I can't say enough about her spirit of problem solving and meeting her customers need"
