  Monty and Karen Turner, Run of the River Bed & Breakfast, Leavenworth, WA

Transplants from Las Vegas, Monty and Karen built and opened their log style bed & breakfast inn in 1986. "We looked for property in the Cascade Mountains near a river because we wanted to offer guests things to see and do in all four seasons," says Monty. Their spot on the Icicle River near the Bavarian style town of Leavenworth offers all kinds of outdoor activities. In the winter guests enjoy cross-country skiing and snowshoeing and in the summer and fall guests take on hiking, biking, fishing, and river rafting. "When we can we love to go biking and hiking with our guests, too," says Monty.

Monty's collection of mountain bicycles is available for guests to use on nearby roads and trails. "We also have a nifty Cannondale 18-speed tandem bicycle that guests can try," says Monty. During winter months guests are welcome to use the inn's Red Feather snowshoes, taking off from the front door of the inn! "Folks who don't take to skiing usually find snowshoeing easy to learn," says Monty. Jasper, the friendly airedale often enjoys a romp with guests too.

Melody and Bob have welcomed travelers since 1987 to their mountain lodge-style B&B located at the base of 11,235-ft. Mt. Hood. Bob, a gourmet chef, provides tasty breakfasts and sometimes-ribald conversational tidbits as well. "He always seems to have something funny to say," says Melody with a grin. The couple also offers fine dining in the evening, a prix fixe affair that often comes with seven delicious courses including dessert. Wines are extra. Reservations are a must (call 800-624-7384).

An active supporter of the Mt. Hood Recreation Area, Melody is president of the Associated Bed & Breakfasts of Mount Hood & Northern Willamette Valley and she has recently been appointed to the Clackamas County Tourism Council. The B&B Association members also host the Mountain Mercantile, a sparkling and fun holiday craft fair in mid-November at the Resort at the Mountain in Welches.
