If you are staying for the weekend, Kelsey and Ryan planned a fun and local excursion for guests: floating down the Willamette! All expenses paid including: transportation, drinks/food, and kayaks/inner tubes. Please note: this is a 3 to 4-hour trip. No experience needed, but the trip requires a low to medium activity level. If a float is not your style, that's okay! Under the Things To Do tab, Kelsey and Ryan created a list of fun, Oregonian activities for you to choose from. Shuttle Services: We have shuttle services taking guests to the river drop-off point (Riverview Park Beach: Independence, Oregon). Guests should be in front of their respective hotels 5 minutes before departure. The Grand Hotel departure: 9:45 AM The Holman Riverfront Park Hotel: 9:55 AM Please RSVP by MAY 1st.
6:00 pm - 9:00 pm

After a full day of exploring Oregon and doing Oregonian things, guests will come together to eat, drink, and celebrate a wonderful weekend! Food and drinks are provided, and a vegetarian/gluten-free option will be available. Please RSVP by MAY 1ST.
