Bayou on the 9 - McMinnville, OR

Watch the golfers drive the fairway, as you sip a glass of wine and kick back on your private deck at this charming McMinnville getaway. As the lower level of a separate residence, you'll still have plenty of privacy at this daylight basement flat and easy access to wineries, galleries, and local hot spots.

Make the quick three-mile drive into the heart of McMinnville to wander through the wine tasting rooms, or explore the local artisan shops. With easy rounds of golf across the street at the Bayou Golf Course, everyone will have something to delve into. Just a short drive to Linfield College, you'll be able to attend events on campus without the hassle.

The open main living area greets you with view of the golf course from the sliding glass doors. Grab a glass of local Pinot Noir and head out onto the deck to take notes on navigating the hazards, so you can avoid them when you play. Flip on the TV and surf the cable channels while you slowly slip into vacation mode.

Connect to the WiFi to map out your wine tasting tour, while you fire up the gas grill to barbecue a delicious dish. If grilling isn't your thing, the basic kitchenette features a mini-fridge, hot plate, and microwave to help you fix a quick meal to keep everyone fueled up and on the go.

After dinner, enjoy a game of Ping-Pong on the private table, or head back out onto the deck to enjoy the shimmer of the stars above.

As the day winds down, this two-bedroom, one-bathroom space has room for up to four guests to enjoy an escape filled with wine, golf, and local attractions. With a soft queen-size bed in each bedroom, everyone will be able to stay in comfort and style.

Bring your favorite mug and wake up with a cup of piping hot coffee from the Keurig on the deck, before heading to the Bayou Golf Course to make your tee time. Weave your way through the oaks, pines, and well-manicured landscape to set your ball on the lush green.

You can head into the heart of McMinnville to visit the tasting rooms of several of the area's best-known wineries, like Eyrie, Willamette Valley Vineyards, and R. Stuart & Co. Winery. Travel up through Dayton and Dundee and grab a sandwich at the Red Hills Market, before continuing on your way through the rolling hills, dotted with even more vineyards and picturesque picnic spots.
