Hello, my name is “Kitty” and I am just waiting to greet our next guests…it’s my favorite pastime.  Because I live outdoors, I love it when guests wander in the gardens and go for walks because I love escorting them around our property.  I have been here since this old farmhouse became a bed and breakfast and I think it is the best thing that has happened here since Mr. Feller built it in 1865! Since I am a newcomer from that perspective, I couldn’t say for sure, but life IS good on the farm now that I meet so many new friends! Come and visit and I will show you around!

I love our guests!

When visiting the Feller House Bed and Breakfast, guests can meet the gals who will furnish their fresh eggs at breakfast if they choose or just enjoy the farm fresh eggs in the morning.  Della, Orpha, Goldie and others are our friendly hens.  Guests just might even hear our rooster reminding us it’s morning,

One sunny day earlier this month, I was entertained by several finches enjoying the sun and the water in the bird bath.

They were flapping their wings and splashing water on themselves and each other like it was the last they would see….just really enjoying themselves.  I don’t mind washing dishes when I can be entertained at the same time!

Fall is in the air…it’s a good time to visit the Willamette Valley!   There are many ways to get a “taste” of our bountiful valley.  Many fruit and vegetable stands and markets are overflowing with wonderful produce and many of our restaurants are featuring locally grown produce.  Aurora’s annual quilt show is another way to get a “taste” of local history and art.

Aurora Colony Museum will be displaying vintage, antique and new quilts in its quilt show “Bountiful Oregon” from October 14th to 23rd from 10 to 4:00 daily.  Visitors will be able to see quilts, demos, and a featured quilter, shop in the country store, and enjoy the coffee shop all in one visit!

Make your reservation at the Feller House and receive two free tickets to the quilt show.  Mention our Quilt Show Special for your tickets.

We have added four new feathered friends to our chicken coop!  Guests will be happy that we now have enough for them to have farm fresh eggs for breakfast.

Our community garden is rewarding us with lots of veggies to share with members as well as adding to our breakfast dishes.  The goats love it when we have extra for them too!

Two weeks ago we had two new baby goats born so there is plenty of frolicking going on in the pen.

Can’t forget Kitty….she lives outside and is always the first to greet our guests.

Looking for something fun to do this summer?  Why not take a little trip to Butteville and step back in time.  The Historic Butteville Store, established in 1863 and operated by the Friends of Historic Champoeg, is the oldest continuously-operating business in Oregon.

Play a game of checkers and have an ice cold drink or ice cream cone.  The store also features delicious homemade soups, sandwiches, salads, and desserts, and on Saturday evenings from 6:00 to 9:00 you can enjoy live music and dinner (reservations are required.)

While visiting, check out the great selection of Oregon history, and nature books,  unique gifts and French Prairie grown and produced agriculture products.

The Historic Butteville Store is located just three miles from Feller House Bed and Breakfast…why not make it a overnight too!

If you are a gardener, or even if you aren’t and just enjoy beautiful flowers, you will enjoy the Willamette Valley in spring and summer.  Beginning with daffodils in early spring and continuing into the fall, many gardens and nurseries are open for visitors’ enjoyment.  Currently, peonies and irises are in abundance here in the valley.

Pictured are Adelman’s Peony Gardens near Salem…a delight to the senses!

Nearby, are the colorful Schreiner’s Iris Gardens which are also beautiful view.

See our Specials and Packages tab on our website for details about how we can help save you money on your trip!

Join us here in the North Willamette Valley for the arrival of spring. Daffodils are in full bloom and tulip blossoms are emerging at the Wooden Shoe Tulip Farm with 40 acres of color at their height.

Always at this time of year when the kid goats start showing up and the daffodils shoot up and buds swell, I am encouraged and feel an excitement for all the things that will be full of new life this spring.
