Butte Creek Valley
The Wilson Ranches Retreat B&B https://wilsonranchesretreat.com was our home away from home the last week of May a few years back. We greatly enjoyed our stay.
It’s located on a 9,000-acre working cattle ranch in the Butte Creek Valley of Central Oregon. We stayed in a 4,300 square foot 1910 Sears Roebuck Ranch House with six ranch style guest rooms. The hearty country breakfasts were hosted by Nancy and Phil Wilson, just about as gracious and interesting folks imaginable. And, there were other fun guests to boot.

Being only a couple of miles from Fossil, the Retreat made a very convenient location for exploring the John Day Fossil Bed National Monument.
And, being close to the John Day River, it provided me a good excuse to get in a day of smallmouth bass fishing during our stay.
