The food and service were amazing! I rate it a three because I think it's a little pricy (you pay per person instead of per room) all meals are paid for even though we only had dinner the night we arrived and breakfast the morning we left. However, I was not a fan of having no food to order, aside from the set meal times! I do have to give the front desk woman with thick blonde hair some credit. She gave me a handful of snacks (chips & granola bars) because we were starving after getting off of the afternoon boat (Jerry's rogue jets) arrived too late for lunch and evening snack time was 4 hrs away. You eat like you are a family. Dishes of food being passed down to the people next to you. Unlimited coffee, water, tea, hot coco, lemonade (IF you stay over night, otherwise either of those are $2 a piece). We stayed in the Gray cabin, there were cob webs and the wood on the bathroom was chipping/peeled off.. I feel like they may need to do better at dusting and it needs a new bathroom door. ONE major complaint is it was so incredibly hot and they have no AC and I'm sure that as a lot to do with the way the power is ran. I had to soak a wash cloth in cold water and place on parts of my body to cool off like My face, legs, neck and belly. 

They are 90 miles away from civilation and the only power they have is ran by a generator. The water is from a well. Lights off by 10 and you only have a small little light in the bathroom for when you have to go pee/poo. Which isn't a bad thing but it was pretty scary waking up and it was pitch black! It's nice and peaceful but there's only so little available to do. I live on the coast so the beautiful rivers, scenic views is nothing new (first time on the rogue though and it's def a beautiful viewing) I loved it but because of it being so spendy for a young couple I don't think I'll be back. One night was 330 dollars, that's too much for us but it was one year anniversary of being married and we love adventures. 

I do want to add that I love the sentimental value of the place and the history behind it. It's an amazing place and I learned a lot from looking at the pictures on the walls, the big photo albums and the little postings they have when you walk down the trails. The food and customer service I rate a 5! But being hot at night, having no other options to order food before meal times and the price, I rate it a 3. I'm 24 and I'm fairly picky. By no means am I high class. I've camped for a few days in a tent and ate hobo dinners, only showered in a river and used a bush to eliminate. I think some improvements should be at hand in the future. Maybe not ac but tiny little bedside fans could probably do the trick to keep you cool at night! That's my opinion 😜

Paradise Lodge is my new favorite remote destination!! The accommodations were comfortable and clean while the staff was nothing short of amazing. We took Jerry's Rogue Jets to access the lodge and were immediately welcomed at arrival. The staff took up our bags, led us to our cabin, and informed us of all of the "house rules". Coming from South Florida, full of hustle and bustle, I was unsure about the lack of electricity during certain hours and the remoteness of the lodge. However, those details made the trip even more special as we had to actually bond (imagine such a concept!). 

Our daily agenda looked something like this: Wake up, travel down to the main cabin for delicious breakfast (scrambled eggs, french toast or pancakes, bacon and sausage, oatmeal, yogurt, coffee); Spend the morning on a scenic hike; Travel back down to the main cabin for as much lemonade as we could possibly drink (or an Oregon-brewed beer); Watch the river; Play chess or the many other provided board games; Read a book in the most relaxing atmosphere while listening to the beauty of nature (running river, wind, etc.); Travel down to the main cabin for lunch (chef's choice sandwiches, pasta or potato salad, chips, KIND granola bars); Play some football, soccer, golf, or any of the other provided recreational activities; Explore some more; Maybe take a nap; Wait patiently for the never-disappointing dinner; Eat dinner (Chicken, ribs, tri-tip, or pork, chef's choice sides, excellent dessert); Then, at dusk, witness the wildlife enjoying the lodge probably as much as the guests (we saw skunks, deer, foxes, etc.); Lights are out at 10 p.m. (but, be advised that they do leave on the bathroom lights so that you don't have to pee in the dark... very important to note!). 

I have to throw in this review that I am an extremely high-maintenance eater (What can I say? I love good food!- it's the Taurus in me). I was nervous at first because of the remoteness of this location and wasn't sure what to expect. Honestly, I would give the food 5 stars in itself. The family-style meals were delightful, fresh, and full of flavor. To this day, we are still raving about the potato and pasta salads. Everything was made perfectly and the staff did not hesitate to bring seconds at request. If you'd like, you can purchase a bottle of wine (...great way to celebrate!)

Everyone should experience Paradise Lodge at least once. I am looking forward to future visits and can't wait to bring my city-slicker, South Florida friends to experience the natural beauty of the Rogue River. I would give Paradise Lodge 10+ stars if I could. Although it was not requested (or required), we were happy to give the staff a well-deserved extra tip. The hospitality was as good as it gets and everyone was happy to provide a helping-hand, information on the best hikes, stories about the lodge, smiles, and just someone to talk to. Thank you Paradise Lodge for a wonderful experience. I can't wait to see you again in the future!

Poor customer service at the reservation desk.  Food is not as good as in the past or as much variety.  

The brightest part of our stay was because employees Justin and Catie worked very hard to help my family and me feel welcome.  The were apologetic about a mistake the reservation desk made that resulted in us paying full price (twice, until I argued and got a refund for the second full price payment) to sleep in the guide shack.  Catie and Justin are wonderful, hard-working employees!

I've been staying at Paradise Lodge for years and have sent many friends there.  My experience will have me checking out the lodge downriver when I plan my next trip.

What a way to spend a night. Wishing we would have stayed longer. We did the Jerry's Jet boat ride to the paradise lodge.   The food was A+.  Rooms clean, and well kept.   A few of the  staff could use some additional training on customer service. The hikes in the area, are relaxing and beautiful. An experience worth having.

My family and I travel every summer and are always excited for a new adventure. We found Paradise Lodge and could not wait to check it out after hearing many positive reviews from friends in the Oregon area. Our group of nine included members of all ages and there were activities to keep all of us equally entertained. The journey to P.L. began with a jet boat ride from the Oregon coast. The twists, short stops, splashes, and river history kept all of us laughing, interested, and enjoying the ride. Once we arrived at P.L., the staff helped us to our cabin and welcomed us to a delightful lunch.
 
I highly recommend the hikes around P.L. My family enjoys family fun time and the fact that we could bring grandma on the hike with no problem was a great way for us all to share the afternoon (I am very lucky to have a young-at-heart grandma). There are more treacherous hikes for the experienced and many activities offered for the adrenaline junkie all the way down to the relaxer. Whatever your style, P.L. will have something for you.
 
My family is highly competitive. We were immediately drawn to the offered footballs, soccer balls, golf, the volleyball sand court, and the ultimate Frisbee course. This allowed for some recreational time and friendly competition. At the end of the day, we hung out in the Garden cabin’s conference room and played cards, Chess, and board games. At light’s out, you can tell ghost stories and maybe even play practical jokes on grandma.
 
Nothing beats local craft beer. Make sure to stop by the bar, pop open a brewski, and hang out on the hammock. The lodge offers books for you to borrow and staff for you to share stories with. People will be coming in and out of the lodge (those who hike in, water raft and need a place to stop, etc.). Everyone is friendly and having a good time.
