A Jacksonville, Oregon Bed and Breakfast

Can a house be both "magnificent" and "cozy"? Our guests think so. The magnificent perspective comes from the large scale of the house and it's elevated siting as well as the impressive foyer and great room. The cozy perspective comes from the comfortable furnishings and many personal touches along with the casual atmosphere created by hosts Tim and Gary.

TouVelle House is a handsome 3-story Craftsman style home which Judge Frank TouVelle had built in 1916. The house was designed by his wife, Elizabeth. The house is sited on a hill well back from the sidewalk and street on 1.3 acres which provides you with a quiet and restful retreat.

Even though it feels like you are in the country, we are located just two blocks from the varied shopping and dining opportunities in historic downtown Jacksonville, and only four blocks from Britt Park, home of the Britt Music Festivals. Everything in town is just a short walk away.

As our guests, you are encouraged to enjoy all of the public areas. Stickley and other Arts & Crafts style furniture fill the Great Room and create a wonderfully comfortable space to read, play cards or board games or just curl up in front of the fireplace. The 12' ceilings give the room a sense of grandeur, but the furnishings provide very comfortable gathering spots.

The Library provides a smaller enclave where you can catch the news on the television or choose from a selection of periodicals and books. You can also slip out the door to the side porch and enclosed garden for a quiet spot for your morning coffee. Along with complimentary high-speed wireless internet access, there is also a computer available to look up information on local attractions, or if you just have to check your email.

For the perfect spot to take a cup of tea in the afternoon you will find the Sun Room, with four walls of windows is wonderfully bright and cheery. You will also find a telephone for your convenience and information on local attractions.

What better way to spend a vacation day than doing nothing besides lounging by the pool! Our swimming pool, which is heated during the summer, and surrounding patio is a private haven where you can truly let your hair down and relax. In addition to the pool, you can always find a peaceful spot in the lawn and garden areas to retreat and watch the world go by.

In the morning you will enjoy a full breakfast in the Dining Room. Relax - this isn't a formal affair - just good food, good coffee and good conversation. Offerings may include poached pears, scones, spinach and mushroom frittata, or blueberry pancakes. Good, strong coffee is available after 7:00 am and breakfast is served at 9:00 am. 

Guest refrigerators on each floor provide bottled water and room to store your own items. Tea is always available in the dining room.
