Augusta House Bed and Breakfast

You will not find a more comfortable place to stay in Eugene other than this fabulous B&B! Marilyn, the owner, was there to greet us on our arrival and her warm happy vibes fill her home and instantly put you at ease. Breathtaking views, a beautiful interior and the highest level of comfort are all part of the package.
One night ended in the hot tub underneath the stars with the smell of jasmine. It was so relaxing I wish I was there now. Marilyn cooks you breakfast in the morning and those are not to be missed. Fresh strawberries and yogurt, an assortment of muffins and the best frittata I have ever had! She also makes a killer scramble. We really enjoyed our conversations over breakfast, Marilyn is a perfect host!
I’ll be back for sure!

We stayed at August House in August on our drive to the Willamette Valley wineries and were bowled over by the accomodations. Marilyn, the owner, was there to greet us, show us the accomodations and give us tips for local restaurants and just in general welcome us. She is a very special lady and made the stay that much more enjoyable. The total house is beautiful with designer touches throughout. The Premier Suite where we stayed is over the top. Beautiful linens, beautiful decorations and not your usual B&B style but that of a 5-​Star resort. Sitting room had the 2^nd flat-​screen tv, desk with fax & laptop (for those on a working trip). Complimentary breakfast was served at a time preferred by us and was perfect; fruit; main course; coffee or tea. All in all the end of a perfect stay. We’ll definately be back on our next trip to the wineries. BTW, being from the SF Bay Area, we know the Napa Vly wineries but have to say that
the Willamette Vly wineries are much less crowded and more visitor friendly. We’ll be back!

We do not stay at B&B much because we actually prefer modern hotels– no squeaky floor or floral bedspread. While searching for a mid-​stop between Vancouver and Napa, Augusta House caught my eyes because of its style– bright, spacious, and yes, modern.
When we got there, Marilyn (Madam Augusta) was there to welcome us, along with Suki, her chocolate brown Cocker Spaniel /​Labradoodle. Suki was nervous about the strangers at first but soon became very friendly and affectionate. Marilyn gave us a tour of the house, and checked with us what and when we would prefer for breakfast. She has great taste and really takes good care of her house and her guests. After settling in, we got into this fancy hot tub and had an enjoyable and relaxing evening (still could not figure out how many functions that control has…) Our night ended on a sleep-​number bed with 37″ flat screen TV that played Mad Men on demand. My husband’s sleep number is 45.
We woke up to the delicious smell of sausage, eggs, potato, and muffins. The almond muffin was moist and super tasty, and after the berry yogurt salad, we could not finish the entrée. Marilyn prepared two take-​out containers for us to bring the leftovers on the road. I don’t think you can ask any better than that.
We did not get to explore Eugene this time, but plan to revisit so we can stay at Augusta House again!
