Things to Do
wine Country Partners
McMinnville and the Willamette Valley are a wine enthusiasts paradise attracting travelers from all over the United States and the World. With that in mind, The Boutique Retreat has partnered with some of the best tasting rooms and wineries in the region to provide our guests with promotional tasting cards that offer complimentary or 2-for-1 tastings for guests that book on our website, and make a reservation for 2 or more nights. Tasting cards can be requested by contacting us 24 hours before the arrival time and providing us with the names of the preferred wineries & tasting rooms. Tasting cards will be left in the cottage(s) and ready for redemption upon check-in.
Since our partners have generously agreed to offer discounts, we encourage our guests to be gracious and considerate by purchasing wine or other products from our partners to enjoy at The Boutique Retreat or to take back home for those special occasions. Our partners include the wineries listed below. Please note that our inventory of tasting cards periodically changes, and we always recommend that reservations are made in advance.
