Reviews from musicians

Great people in a small town on the coastal ridge of Oregon. Fantastic staff, only entertainment option in the town and they come to support it. They also provide food (not a wide variety but it's all very good, although not super healthy, necessarily. Killer burgers and sandwiches with a few huge salads), very comfortable (and clean) lodging, and a straight $100/man.
They have a nice B-3 as well!

Super friendly owners and staff, only entertainment in this rural area, good sound system, sleeping accommodations for band if needed. Good sound system, excellent Hammond B-3 with Leslie provided. Place is too small to pay big money, but pay is reasonable, and they prefer to book same act saturday night and sunday early afternoon, so it adds up. CD sales and tips were a plus.
