Since 1982, the summer weekends have been pretty crazy for the folks at Rapid Pleasure Rafting Company. They load people into the vans with the rafting gear on trailers and drive approximately 10-miles up river to the fish hatchery, located just below Lost Creek Dam. After getting everyone settled in the rafts, along with basic instructions, the white water cowboys are on their own for the 3-3 1/2 hour trip down the beautiful Upper Rogue River, complete with an abundance of wildlife, and lots of fishermen trying to hook that big salmon! Stops along the way include a park about half way down where some people stop to enjoy a packed lunch, or a little further down river, there is a small "back-door barbecue" where hamburgers and hotdogs are served, or paddle up a creek to swim in the warmer water.

The Red Buttes pop up now and then on many southern Oregon back roads, usually just for a second. Their double-humped camelback outline is an instant giveaway. Also, they are red (orange actually). Highlight: Close-up exploration of the beautiful namesake peak of the Red Buttes Wilderness.

Red Lily Vineyards is committed to a single goal – producing the finest tempranillo wine possible. Our focus on this varietal was born out of our love of Spanish wine and the lure of tempranillo’s brooding, earthy character. Red Lily Vineyards is named principally for Bolander’s Lily, a rare species of red lily found in the neighboring Syskiyou Mountains. Red Lily Tempranillo is also a rarity–a unique expression of the complex and intense nature of this ancient Spanish variety.

Only one and a half a miles from the Britt Music Festival, Rellik is owned by Delando and Zoey Pegan, locals since 2016, and Bay Area partners Christopher and Jessica Wallace. The two couples joined forces to rejuvenate the former Caprice Winery. As part of a long range plan, the Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay vineyards originally planted in 1990 are being improved and expanded to include new varietals. The first wines are now available, made by Chris Graves. With indoor and patio seating areas, a scenic pond and eventually an onsite Rellik House (overnight accommodations), with a pool, firepit and BBQ area, families will want to stay and play. As if that weren’t enticing enough, fifteen alpacas and two llamas reside on the property to delight animal lovers of all ages. Prepare to love Rellik, an experience designed for pleasure down to the last detail.

Rogue Creamery online artisan cheese shop, where we are love the Caveman Blue! The natural rind gives this blue a delicious savory flavor. This year, we're also celebrating 80 years of making delicious, artisan cheese. Inspired by a sense of place, Rogue Creamery draws from the beauty and flavors of Southern Oregon’s Rogue Valley to create gourmet, hand-crafted blue cheese, cheddar cheese and TouVelle. The certified sustainable whole milk we use to make our internationally-acclaimed, gourmet blue cheese comes from our dairies along the banks of the rugged and scenic Rogue River.

Self guided tours are available; check-in at the Farm Stand for a map. Schools and Groups may schedule guided tours by appointment. In 2008 we set the goal of controlling our milk source. In order to do what we needed to find a viable dairy in the Rogue Valley that fit our needs and our budget. We found one late in 2011 and have slowly brought it back to life. This has been and continues to be an incredibly ambitious project. There were no animals and the place was derelict, but it was OURS! The Central Point team rejoiced when Todd Hayton arrived to lead the dairy team. With 25 years experience as a dairyman, Todd was ready to roll up his sleeves and help us in the last phases of rehabilitating our newly acquired, but sadly neglected, organic dairy in Grants Pass.
