Tu Tu' Tun Lodge

We have stayed at TuTuTun many times and loved it. This visit was our first with the new owners. It is not the same place. The landscaping is overgrown and full of weeds. The handrails on the stairs are very rough and splintery. We stayed in the Steelhead suite. We always stay there or the Chinook suite because we prefer to cook our own meals rather than be stuck with the overpriced meals and beverage now being offered. Our kitchen was overrun by ants. We notified the front desk and the response was "Oh" Registration is now in what was the Library, separated from the hallway by a curtain. Wine storage has now taken over the previous office and front desk. All the chairs in the lounge are covered by tacky fake furs. There no longer is an evening Happy hour with free hors d'oeuvres. That was always the highpoint of the day with guests gathering by the fireplace for conversation. When we told the registration how much we enjoyed that time, the response was "There are lots of great hors d'oeuvres available in the restaurant." Bar prices are exorbitant with a surcharge The scenery is now the only wonderful thing about the Lodge

I enjoyed two quiet nights at the lodge and it was relaxing but lacked the kind of intimate and stimulating atmosphere that an actual luxury hotel would offer. I stayed in one of the glass cabins. I enjoyed the heated floors but did not like the idea of the toilet being inside of the shower.. the bed was comfortable but honestly the room was tiny, I don’t think I would get this room if I brought my partner. Also there was no WiFi/service in the one I stayed “the falcon”. It was difficult to get in touch with my family. I had to get out of my bed and walk all the way to the lobby just to send texts, so that was annoying. There is lots of space to walk around and enjoy privacy which I did enjoy. I loved sitting by the rouge river and walking around. The reception made me feel a bit awkward as I ordered the smores and they didn’t really want to set it up for me both nights unless I annoyed them about it. I felt disregarded through communication and service. I’m not used to that at all. The restaurant is okay , I had great service from Morgan. She was very friendly and kind, she recommended plenty of hikes and scenic views for me , and made sure I got everything I needed. She really helped me feel comfortable I appreciate her. This is also a place for an older crowd like 50+. I’m in my 20s… id say this place is only luxurious for someone that has never been to any nice places. I don’t think it’s worth it at this price point in my opinion.

I attended the Winemaker Series this past weekend featuring Walter Scott Wines, and the experience was absolutely superb. The wine on its own was outstanding. The food on its own was outstanding. But together, the pairing elevated both to another level. The setting is pure Oregon dreamscape. Tucked away along the river, the lodge feels like a true escape. It’s calm, grounding, and quietly beautiful. You can feel your nervous system slow down the moment you arrive. The chef deserves special recognition. Exceptionally talented, thoughtful, and precise. Every dish felt intentional, balanced, and deeply satisfying without being showy. You could tell a lot of care went into how the food supported the wine rather than competing with it. We especially appreciated his explanation of each dish and the emphasis a place on buying local. Overall, this was a five-star experience in every sense. Incredible food, exceptional wine, a stunning setting, and an atmosphere that feels restorative. Tutin Lodge is a place I’ll be thinking about for a long time.

My family and I spent four nights at Tu Tu’ Tun Lodge over New Year’s, and it was an incredible experience. Our room was very comfortable, and the staff was consistently kind, attentive, and went above and beyond to make our stay special. We loved the river-facing sauna (including a cold plunge into the Rogue River!), the heated pool with a cozy fire pit, and every meal we had—breakfast, lunch, and dinner were all excellent. The glass cabins are stunning, and we’re already planning to return to stay in one. As wine lovers, we were especially impressed by the beautifully curated wine list—exceptional for such a remote location, with great options at every price point and a world-class selection for those looking to splurge. We came to disconnect and recharge, and Tu Tu’ Tun delivered. We will definitely be back!

We recently stayed at Tu Tu Ton lodge in the Steelhead Suite. This Suite is basically a small apartment that has everything you need for your stay. The view is perfect! If you love kicking back and watching the Rogue River, this is the room to stay in. It is located up the stairs above the check in office, so it does have stairs. The room has a wood burning fireplace, comes with wood and lighter so you’re all set to start a fire. Smart TV, nice size living room, dinning table, kitchen, big bedroom and big bathroom. The shower was perfect. The toilet I have to mention because it’s one of those boday ones with a heated seat. The lid goes up on its own when you start to lift it, and a small light comes on which is helpful at night. The bedroom has nice big windows. No TV in the bedroom. The bed was pretty comfortable, I liked the big heavy bedspread it had. The kitchen has everything you need, full size refrigerator, freezer, plates, bowls, glasses, wine glasses, coffee maker, tea pot, paper towels, regular towels, silverware, knives, plenty of cookware, microwave, stove, oven, all set for making meals if you don’t eat downstairs at the restaurant. The room has 3 bottles of wine and some snacks for additional prices. The ride into Gold Beach to Ray’s Market is about 15 minutes away. I would definitely stay in this room again! Check in was nice and easy, staff are super friendly without a doubt! That’s what makes coming here amazing! The groundskeeper, who has been working there for 18 years now, helped us up with our bags. He also got the fire going in the sauna next to the river. There is a swimming pool that is heated. There is a huge fireplace in the same room where the bar is so it was fun to get a drink and hang out there every night. Then the restaurant is next to the bar so everything is all right there. So what made our stay perfect was the staff. I have to mention Hanna, she was the bartender and also our waitress for dinner. She was amazing, so friendly and just made our stay there so perfect! The dinners were delicious and out of this world! Chef Derek really can cook up not only amazing food but his presentation of the food is like something you see on tv, it was just so perfect! I had halibut, NY Strip and scallops the 3 nights for dinner while my wife had the fillet, fish and chips, and halibut. All were so delicious! The bread is amazing so I would recommend that as well as the potato wedges! All in all it was a great trip! A very romantic trip we will never forget! Thanks to the amazing staff!
