Wolf Creek Inn to reopen April 1 Tuesday Jan 30, 2018 at 11:14 AM Jan 30, 2018 at 11:14 AM The historic Wolf Creek Inn will reopen under new management April 1, according to a press release from the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department. OPRD has awarded a management contract to The Public, LLC to operate the Wolf Creek Inn State Heritage Site, the release said. The 135-year-old inn, 18 miles north of Grants Pass, will begin offering full-service dining and overnight lodging April 1. Wolf Creek Inn has been a popular stop for Oregon travelers since the 1880s. The inn was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1972, and was acquired by OPRD in 1975. It is the oldest continuously operated hotel in the Pacific Northwest. The inn offers nine guestrooms, all with private baths. The two-story building retains the Classical Revival architectural style typical of early inns in the American West. Furnished with both original and reproduction furniture, the inn will be open daily for free guided tours. Visitors will also be able to eat lunch and dinner at the inn restaurant. The Public, LLC was founded in November 2016. Owner Andrew Shroyer previously operated Garden Creek Ranch in Hells Canyon, Idaho. Shroyer said the opportunity to operate the historic inn was "once in a lifetime," and plans to continue the inn's tradition as a relaxing retreat. "We're excited to honor the historical significance of the inn and join the great community of Wolf Creek," Shroyer said in the release.
