A Beautiful Sunday at the Allison Inn & Spa

and a visit to the Wine Country for

our Wedding Anniversary

Easter Sunday, April 8, 2012 was such a beautiful day and my husband and I went to the Allison Inn & Spa Resort to begin a celebration of our wedding anniversary.

The Allison, Oregon Wine Country's Premier Destination Resort, was our first stop for one of the best breakfasts I have had in a very long time.

We went early so we could just have breakfast and not Easter Brunch, we were not disappointed. Not only was our meal perfect, the service fabulous and the waiter attentive but the Pastry Chef put together a plate of scrumptious deserts with a beautiful message for us. We were treated with much honor.

The Allison opened about two years ago and is beautiful, with original paintings and artwork from local artists everywhere. The decor is not to be missed, they have not forgotten one thing when putting this beautiful resort together.

It is located on 35 acres and is on the outskirts of Newberg, Oregon entrenched in Oregon's Wine country. From what I have read the Allison is held in high esteem by the Travel Community.

From there we went into the wine country and visited a few wineries, Sokol Blosser being one of them. Perfect Day, perfect weather, beautiful countryside to explore once again and best of all a wonderful wedding anniversary.

Happy Anniversary ( and Easter) Mary - albeit a bit late to the party. :) The Alison sounds just marvelous - I'm going to have to make a note of it. Sokol Blosser is always a good stop and you're right, the day was perfect. So happy you had a marvelous time.

Good Morning Joan,

IT was a great place to have breakfast and walk around their grounds. A perfect way to begin the day, we had breakfast at 7:30 a.m. When you are treated like royalty it is the best of beginnings. I am hoping people will see this resort and investigate a bit.

Hi Debb,

A very worthwhile short trip to make. Actually the Allison is about 20 minutes from our home and the vineyards another 5 minutes up the road. I would say we are pretty fortunate. I hope you had a beautiful Easter as well, the day was really perfect in so many ways.

Good Morning Patricia,

I am fortunate when speaking of husbands. He just made the reservations and then made it happen. We took our dog Henry so after dining we could take him for a long hike. That just made the day all that much better.

Good Morning Anna,

Thank you so much for joining in the conversation, you are appreciated. It was a very good day and treasured to be sure, 23 years that went by so quickly it does not seem possible.

Hi Jane,

We love the wine country areas. We have been through the Napa Valley many time enjoying all of the different wineries and their fabulous wines, plus have stayed at some very nice resorts. Thank you so much for stopping by.

Hi Maureen,

I hope you do make it out there, it is worth the trip whatever that may be. The service as I said is wonderful and you are treated with such importance or at least we were.
