What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Also in AFAR.
The cottages and suites are set within restored farmstead buildings, and feature substantial modern comforts.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
Downtown Walla Walla is a four-mile drive west, while country roads wind past neighboring vineyards toward the Blue Mountains.
The rooms
Restored cottages retain open timber rafters, warmed by gas fireplaces and heated basalt floors.
At the table
Dinners bring five courses of handmade pasta and estate wines, and mornings begin with country breakfast in the barn.
How it began
Jacob Kibler homesteaded the property in 1863 after traveling the Oregon Trail, and his family farmed it for a century.
