Was a wonderful stay, owner's of property were so nice and made us feel like we belonged. Rooms were amazing. First time at a B&B. Didn't know what to expect. Was so happy we stayed 1 night. But it will be one trip we will never forget.

Rustic charm
It was so nice to stay at Scott’s Creek Farm, a rustic and charming place. Our hosts were kind and friendly, and our room offered all that we needed - privacy, quiet. Of special importance to us was that they allowed us to bring our cat, Rosie, who travels with us.

Hosts were very nice. Property was hard to navigate at night. I got chewed up by mosquitoes in the yard. Maybe it’s just the time of year, but it was really bad. Couldn’t stand outside for a couple minutes without getting eaten alive. Still, the room was nice, and I enjoyed my stay. Not a B&B though. Breakfast was more of a continental breakfast rather than an actual breakfast.

It was very inviting and warm feeling, made me feel like I was staying at my family’s home. The owners were very inviting and helpful. I originally reserved the place for one adult and two children. I ended up having an extra adult which they did not charge me for the extra person. Had a wonderful experience and we would stay there again if needed. Great experiences and enjoyed the creek and wooded experience in the back yard which had plenty of space for our dog that we brought along.

This was a business trip and I chose this place instead of a hotel. I am so happy I did this. The weather did not present itself for walks along all the trails, but the area is amazing. The hosts were very accommodating and so welcoming! This place is fantastic and will stay over whenever I am in the area for business again. Thanks for sharing your place with me, I so loved my stay.

Quick overnight in the Portland area. Best word I can use for the place is “funky”. It was clean but oldish. Decor is quite eclectic. Bathroom facilities are quite in the open. Noise from the busy road was heard in the upstairs bedroom until 2 am. Owners friendly and nice enough.

Response from Monique and Don on 11 Mar 2022
We're sorry you apparently had such a bad experience here. Your review of 2 out of 5 is unusually low for us. We expect 4 or 5. We had just put in a new refrigerator, so possibly it wasn't yet operating properly. The rain always makes stays at rural feeling properties seem damp and muddy, though we know the room was dry and warm, the temperature of which, you could control yourselves. Possibly the unusually well stocked bathroom, unlike any hotels, may have seemed too personal, or busy. Cerainly the 2 acre exterior with hundreds of statues and decorations is unusual and may have seemed more than you'd bargained for. We believe that we are much quieter than any hotel, and far and away more private, with only one other apartment on the property. Even the crowing chickens are over 100 yards away. We do try to turn off all lights at night to produce a feeling of natural night calm, but that is sometimes frightening to some guests, as many are accustomed to bright light all night in hotel settings. We may have felt too far from the center of downtown Portland, though its only a 20 minute drive away. With winter still keeping our forest and gardens asleep, it may have felt desolate, but that is the nature of Oregon in the winter. All sheets are hand ironed, and everything is kept in the cleanest state possible. Our breakfasts are limited by city regulations to only cold choices, so the BnB status is a bit less than we would like ourselves. You may find a conventional hotel is more to your liking in the future. We wish you had let us know of any problems or inadequacies during your stay.

Well kept. It is NOT a hotel with room service or a restaurant, but has a nice kitchen with a stocked refrigerator (full size), range, and microwave. Larger area cabin with stairs, but also a bed downstairs. Bathroom next to front door, but has doors to kitchen/room on first floor and also to the bed in the upstairs room. Lovely place.

The hosts are truly lovely people. Bathroom and kitchen stocked with all things needed. Blackberries all along the back of property for your breakfast pleasure. Short neighborhood woodsy walk on property. If you like sleek and tidy, this is not the place for you. There is a ton of bric a brac inside and outside the cottage and the hosts collect many things. This is probably not the best place if you are sensitive to dust or mothballs but if you are game and noatalgic, this is like visiting your grandparents in the country. Beautiful garden as well.

Totally recommend
I got the room for my friend for her birthday so she could have a quiet night away from kids/hubs. She said the hostess was super nice and helpful. She said the decor reminded her of sort of old European flair, which she thought was really cute. The little gardens were also really pretty. I only had talked to the husband to tweak some of the arrangements, but he was also super nice and helpful.

A unique and comfortable place to stay
This B&B is a bit unusual because you feel more like you are staying at a friends home then a hotel. This place has lots of character and warmth. Our room was full nick-knacks and memorabilia that the owners must of collected over the years, and the bathroom is stocked with many soaps, and other supplies. It does have that 'farm' feel and we were very comfortable. The owners are super friendly and helpful, and if visiting Happy Valley the location can't be beat. My only criticism is that finding the driveway in the dark is difficult and a lighted sign would be helpful - we used GPS and drove slowly.

Comically cluttered
The owners seemed nice but I cannot recommend this place. Everywhere was clutter, the bathroom in particular was comically cluttered with every type and variety of personal hygiene product. This is not normal and kind of weirded us out.
Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2019
Response from Don and Monique on 3 May 2019
So sorry the many amenities we have provided created such personal discomfort. Our stocking of any potential bathroom, health, or emergency needs, for free, is usually met with delight, as no other hotels offer such amenities without requesting them from a concierge at a 4 star hotel, and at much added cost. Some guests have used over a dozen products for their needs, and while medical products are not typically found in hotels, as former healthcare providers, we wanted to offer as many potential healthcare and consumer protection devices as any guest might desire. The entire property, an active cut flower farm, as well as a 2 room B&B, does also have many art works and unusual figures and statues, and many farm projects. We are also surrounded by a forest and nature park, all of which, too, may feel busy for some who's tastes are more minimal, or were expecting a plain, sanitary hotel devoid of creative flourish's. For most visitors, the attempt at making the bathroom as home like in it's offerings, and utilitarian in it's needs, is usually a plus. Your previous experiences at motels, which offer no more than a bar of soap may have reduced your expectations, and the busy art work found throughout the property and in the bathroom is not always to everyone's tastes. Possibly the period Charlie Chaplin poster, looking down upon you as you are enthroned on the toilet, is too much of an intrusion. However, the bathroom is kept immaculately clean and we only use natural, sustainable products when possible for cleaning, and for our guests use. Multiple plants in every room are intended on helping to clean, the air, as various studies have shown, but can also add to the feeling of clutter.

We are sorry that the room was were not what you expected, as we are a higher end Airbnb style Inn, with a room in the main house and a detached apartment. With many decorations and activities available, inside and out, we can be either enjoyed as a unique and beautiful home for low art, or just too busy an experience. As a working farm, we also have many less than perfect surroundings and activities which make the experience here, either a bit too active, or a pleasure for those wanting a more down to Earth visit. However, you did expect a more hotel type residence, but we can't offer such accommodations. Too bad you didn't have more time to see the property with our waterfalls, forest, wildlife, chickens, and self picked vegetables and fruits. Regrettably, some guests don't see all of our posted information about our property and rooms, to realize we are not a hotel, but are a private home with extended uses and opportunities, not recognized by guests who are here merely to sleep.
