Description
A Riverfront Sanctuary in the Heart of Southern Oregon
Now Offered as a 100+ Acre Multi-Property Riverfront Estate
Introduction
Welcome to Applegate River Retreat—a rare opportunity to own one of Southern Oregon’s most distinctive riverfront estates. Now expanded to include the neighboring ranch, this offering has grown into a remarkable 100+ acre riverfront legacy property unlike anything else in the region. With 84.13 additional acres across three more tax lots, a fourth residence, expanded water rights, and over 1,500 feet of combined Applegate River frontage, the estate blends comfort, privacy, scale, and purpose in a setting that feels like your own private park.
Whether envisioned as a family compound, a multi-home retreat, an income-producing hospitality property, or a peaceful homestead rooted in land and lifestyle, Applegate River Retreat delivers unmatched flexibility and infrastructure to bring your vision to life.
Riverfront Lifestyle Opportunity
The land itself embodies the essence of the Applegate Valley—natural, serene, and deeply connected to the river. With more than 1,500 feet of direct Applegate River frontage, the estate invites you to swim, raft, fish, or simply sit along the shore and listen to the current. The combined acreage offers a diversity of terrain: level river benches, gently rolling pastures, mature forest, and open meadowland ideal for gardening, small-scale agriculture, grazing, or creating new outdoor amenities.
Complementing the landscape, the estate now holds a total of 16.90 acres of certificated irrigation water rights, supporting gardens, orchards, pasture, and future agricultural ventures. With a mild four-season climate and rich soils, the property lends itself equally to recreation, homesteading, and sustainable living.
Trails weave throughout the property, connecting homes, riverbanks, viewpoints, and recreation areas—offering a sense of peaceful exploration found on very few private properties.
Four Homes and Expansive Amenities
The combined estate now features four unique residences, each offering its own character and purpose.
The Main House (~1,806 sq ft)
The largest home on the original retreat, offering two private bedrooms, a spacious sleeping loft with six beds, and two full baths. Wraparound decking, vaulted wood ceilings, and the soothing nearby river make it ideal for hosting large groups.
The Middle House (~964 sq ft)
A charming, recently updated two-story retreat with a main-level suite, loft sleeping space, two full baths, vaulted great room, wood stove, spiral staircase, and private patio.
The Log Cabin (~926 sq ft)
A classic getaway with rustic refinement—two king suites, 1.5 baths, warm wood interiors, covered porch, upper balcony, and a nearby fire pit.
The Fourth Home (2,245 sq ft + 1,008 sq ft attached garage)
This single-level, three-bedroom, two-bath residence is ready for personalization and serves perfectly as an owner’s home, caretaker’s residence, or long-term rental. The expansive attached garage provides additional utility and storage.
Retreat Amenities
The property’s amenities are designed for relaxation, recreation, and gathering:
World-class cedar sauna with wood-fired stove, shower, and lounge
“Good Vibes Only” game room with ping pong, foosball, and media setup
Private gym/yoga studio
Multiple storage buildings, carports, pump houses, and utility structures
Domestic wells and filtration systems supporting multiple dwellings
Pasture, meadow, timber, and riverfront environments offering diverse land-use potential
Every structure and space is thoughtfully placed, contributing to a lifestyle rooted in the outdoors.
Short-Term Rental & Hospitality Business
Applegate River Retreat is more than a home—it is an established hospitality asset. Permitted as a Bed & Breakfast, the property currently operates across three dwellings with flexible, proven rental models. Active listings on Airbnb and Vrbo hold excellent guest ratings, with revenue generated through nightly rentals, full-property bookings, and add-on experiences such as private sauna sessions.
With the addition of the fourth home and substantial acreage, the business potential expands dramatically—whether as a multi-home vacation rental, retreat center, wellness destination, or lifestyle lodging venture.
Applegate Valley & Jacksonville Location
Located in the heart of the Applegate Valley, the estate balances seclusion and convenience. Red Lily Vineyard and the Applegate Wine Trail are minutes away, while historic Jacksonville—renowned for boutique shopping, dining, galleries, and the Britt Music & Arts Festival—is only 11 miles from the property.
Despite its rural tranquility, the retreat is just 20 miles from Rogue Valley International–Medford Airport, offering easy access to major West Coast cities. Southern Oregon’s climate, culture, and outdoor recreation make this region one of the most desirable destinations in the Pacific Northwest.
A Place of Purpose and Possibility
Now spanning over 100 acres with four homes, more than 1,500 feet of river frontage, and 16.90 acres of irrigation water rights, Applegate River Retreat stands as one of Southern Oregon’s most versatile and inspiring riverfront estates.
Applegate River Retreat—where every day feels like a vacation.
