Fodor's Expert Review Tu Tu' Tun Lodge
96550 N. Bank Rogue River Rd., 7 miles east of Gold Beach, Gold Beach, Oregon, 97444, USA Fodor's Choice
Pronounced "too-too-tin," this renowned and rather lavish resort is a slice of heaven on the Rogue River, and owner Kyle Ringer is intent on providing his guests with a singular Northwest experience. The units, with private decks overlooking the river, present rustic elegance; some have hot tubs, others have fireplaces, and a few have both. Two deluxe rooms feature outdoor soaking tubs with river views. Guided fishing trips and river activities are offered, and nearby are jet-boat excursions and world-class golf. The restaurant (closed November to April, except breakfast for inn guests) serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The latter—open to nonguests (reservations can be hard to get)—is a five-course prix-fixe meal.
