Southern Oregon’s beautiful Upper Rogue region is one of the prettiest places you’ll find in an already-gorgeous part of Oregon.  Beginning this weekend, you’ll find holiday fun at the Rogue River Lodge just outside Shady Cove.

     The holiday season is in full swing at the historic Rogue River Lodge with Christmas carolers, Santa Claus, and free hot cider this Saturday evening. Carolers from Eagle Point High School will sing traditional holiday favorites beginning at 6:30 p.m. Saturday, followed by a special appearance by Santa at 7 p.m. at the Rogue River Lodge outdoor pavilion.
   “This is a great opportunity to get into the holiday spirit and involve the entire family with a nostalgic holiday tradition,” said Anne Kimball, Rogue River Lodge owner. “The Rogue River Lodge provides an idyllic location to enjoy holiday traditions and special times with friends and family.”
    Children can visit Santa and tell him their Christmas wish list, and free photos can be taken by parents. Free hot cider will also be available. Children are welcome in the Riverview Room until 8:30 p.m. as well as our main dining room.
Families are encouraged to bring a canned food donation for ACCESS Food Share, which feeds the hungry locally through 22 food pantries.
   As part of its holiday season, Rogue River Lodge is offering $10 gift cards to the restaurant with every $100 gift card purchase.
On Saturday, Dec. 18, Eagle Point High carolers will again sing at 6:30 p.m., and Santa will visit beginning at 7:30 p.m. Last Saturday, December 4, the Rogue River Lodge held its First Annual Tree Lighting following the Shady Cove Middle School Christmas celebration and the Shady Cove Christmas Tree Lighting. The Trolley transported people from Shady Cove to the Lodge while enjoying Christmas caroling from the Boys and Girls Club of Shady Cove as well as kids from Prospect Charter School.
“Rogue River Lodge is more than a dining destination,” said Kimball. “We provide a venue with excellent food and wine, as well as community activities such as holiday events, culinary classes, wine tastings and winemaker dinners – highlighting Northwest Cuisine and locally sourced products.”
