Editorial Reviews

Written by a longtime resident, Frommer’s Oregon is a highly personal guide, full of the author’s favorite finds and off-the-beaten-track discoveries. We’ll show you the best of Portland, and then take you along the coast to explore the most charming resort towns and hike past otherworldly rock formations on the beach. It’s all here: the unbelievably blue waters of Crater Lake; the world-class Oregon Shakespeare Festival at Ashland; hiking, mountain-biking, and skiing at Bend; art galleries and craft shops; microbreweries and fabulous seafood; and a host of incresingly renowned wineries. You’ll find a wide choice of accommodations, from romantic inns on the coast to wilderness lodges in the pristine forest. With Frommer’s in hand, it’s easy to design the Oregon adventure that’s right for you.

Helpful when visiting Oregon

This guide was very helpful in planning a trip to Oregon. Some of the less-famous sites are amazing - Oregon is a wonderful place to explore. Very glad we ordered it when making plans and used it almost every day when visiting.

Great vacation book

My husband and I live in Georgia and we wanted to visit Oregon to see my extended family. I hadn't been out there in over 10 years and I didn't know the fun places to visit. This book was a tremendous help. We drove a circle around the state and saw so many beautiful places. This book pointed out all of the small places that we would have probably overlooked if we didn't know to look for them. Wonderful resource! I highly recommend it if you're going to tour the state.
PS--my favorite parts of Oregon are central and eastern Oregon--just beautiful! My husband loves Crater Lake and the coast.

Excellent guidebook

We carried the book with us during a two week tour of the coast and found their recommendations and descriptions of sites and backgrounds to be very accurate. The book was a good buy for us.

Wonderful guide for Oregon!

I find the Frommers' guides to be most helpful when planning a trip and staying in an area for more than a day or two. The in depth details for motels, restaurants, and sights are great! My husband and I are planning a trip to the Columbia Gorge area and Oregon Coast in late spring and have studied this guide in detail. We used a Frommers' last year for a Bermuda trip and found it to be most helpful.

Very helpful, but want more!

This Frommer's travel guide to Oregon proved to be very helpful for our trip. The star system for recommended hotels, restaurants and sites proved to be right on, as far as my trip was concerned. It was particularly helpful to use the star system when selecting wineries to visit/taste because the vast number of options in the Willamette Valley area would have otherwise been daunting. Where I found this book lacking was in only a few areas: (1) add smaller, less known wineries to your suggested places to visit; (2) add a walking tour to your section on Portland; and (3) add many more restaurants in all price ranges and types to the downtown Portland section.
