"Thank you for providing such a wonderful quiet, comfortable place of relaxation - exactly what we needed."

"We stayed here for our honeymoon, and it was incredible. The cabin was so beautiful, and it only made the outer beauty more astounding. We will definitely be back for another visit, but in the summertime. Thank you for everything. PS you are the nicest people we have ever booked with. Thank you for your hospitality."

"Thanks for the wonderful stay on our Anniversary!"

"This place is extremely relaxing and beautiful. Thank you so much for your hospitality. We are sad we have to leave."

"I've had such an amazing stay - this place is magical. I can't wait to come back. Thank you so much for everything, you guys are good people. Until next time, we'll see ya on the road.""

"Ah...the chance encounter of your beautiful wooded fortress. Somehow I don't believe it was chance you have created a wonderful sanctuary for us to become centered again and continue on. Thank you."

"Thank you very much for creating a truly special retreat from the routines of daily life. Your attention to detail in all aspects of our stay really puts WildSpring in a class al its won. The accommodations were luxurious, the breakfasts delicious, and the spa truly relaxing. We are returning to Portland revived, and we thank you for that. Keep up the great work"

"Thank you so much for opening your doors to veterans and allowing us to just get away. Everyone on the grounds was so friendly and the view from the hottub is great."

"Wonderful breakfast. Beautiful view from the deck. Friendly staff and amazing hot tub. Definitely a place to enjoy and recharge."

"The first restful pause on a long year's journey. We hope this marks a shift on the path. These days at WildSpring are a celebration and demarcation - onward and upward we go! Couldn't imagine a better place for the pause. Love the eclectic mix of Buddha’s, Mary’s, totem poles, animals and bells - something for everyone, all are welcome. We hold here with us our remarkable and special friends who made this possible. They bless us with this gift. Love & gratitude,"

"I've read about WildSpring for years and always wanted to come here and finally!! It's an amazing place - just what I needed - love it! Can't wait to come back - thank you!!"

"We're in love with the place."

"When I first saw the online site for your establishment, I was struck with the unusual use of "guest" and "habitat" in the name. We've spent a lot of time on the Oregon coast (north, central & south) both in hotels and in our motor home at RV parks. After our 3 night stay, I have to admit that you truly have created an unusual and restful habitat for gusts. It was relaxing and re-energizing here. Thanks for all of your hard work and thoughtful planning."

"Thank you for creating such a beautiful and magical place.The thoughtfulness of design is apparent everywhere. I expect to come back regularly."

"Words cannot describe the beauty & tranquility of your special piece of heaven here on earth. Look forward to many more trips to see you, Oregon and the Pacific Ocean."

"Wonderful Surprise! My wife booked WildSpring as a 30th birthday gift. I wouldn't have wanted to spend it anywhere else with anyone else."

"(To the tune: "Wild Thing") WildSpring, you make my heart sing. You make everything groovy. WildSpring. WildSpring I know I love you. Your cabins are my mother's arms. The view from your hot tub....It moves me. WildSpring. You give back everything. My soul is missing each day. Thank you WildSpring. C’mon....Thank you WildSpring"

"What a remarkable place! We have so enjoyed our two nights here. We hiked the Cape Blanco trail - really recommend it. It has everything - the forest, the beach. Very beautiful. Staying in our little cabin in the woods, knowing the ocean is nearby. This is a magical spot we hope we can come back to. Thank you for making our trip down the Oregon coast so unique and special."

"What a peaceful & restful stay at WildSpring. Rain Drops, wind whispering through the spruce, and deer munching on foliage."

"This is absolutely the most wonderful and beautiful place we have stayed. You have made WildSpring such a magical refuge. We hate to leave! However, we will be back!"

"Michiganders from (can't read) county celebrating our 30th wedding anniversary on the west coast. Enjoying coastal towns from San Fran to Portland and WildSpring has been one of the highlights. We'll pass the word to the folks back home. Hope to return sometime. Dean's breakfast alone would send us back this way. Thank you!"

"Another incredible week in Oregon was made even better by calling WildSpring our home for a short time. And the weather was absolutely fabulous as well! The best part of the trip, however, was when Matt proposed to me on Wednesday! Port Orford has always held a special place in my heart, but now I know it is etched on my soul Forever."

"Hot tub.....10:40pm....good stuff..."

"Thanks for a wonderful stay. You definitely made our Oregon stay a moment to remember."

"Our first time driving up the Oregon coast. Breathtaking! And your spot here is magical. thank you so much."

"Days out of time...magic in the woods. And such a gracious reception. Thank you."

"From New Hampshire we saw a sign in the woods the reflected our hearts - Bliss."

"Dreams dreamt can become dreams dreamt that move others to dream, and on dreaming do they see the tree w/n the forest as emblematic of the whole and as perfectly singular and beautiful on its own! Here's to seeing the trees w/n our own forests of dreams and tending them, planting and nurturing them, so that someday they too become and in their becomingness attract foe trees similar until another magical grove appears out of the mist."

"A perfect weekend in a peaceful and beautiful surround. Thank you for facilitating such a loving context - WildSpring - for my husband & I to come together again."

"What a fortunate stroke of luck that we heard about this oasis in the forest. It's been a perfect but too brief visit and we look forward to returning. WildSpring is a destination in itself."

"Just traveling through on 101 and happened to see your wonderful place in a magazine. We were very lucky that you had an opening for one night. This is a special place and we feel lucky to have found it. I only wish we could stay a couple of days and take in more of the magic. Thank you for sharing your dream."

"Thank you for a relaxing, wonderful experience. The tranquility and solitude were much needed by us. I feel relaxes & rejuvenated. You have a gold-mine here."

"My extended stay at WildSpring has been everything I hoped for this vacation. It was the perfect mix of solitude, tranquility and luxury. It was a great pleasure to go out hiking (Port Orford Heads, Cape Blanco) or agate hunting (3 times at Agate Beach!) and come back "home" at the end of the day The outdoor spa every night was superb. One night a doe and buck even wandered down by the spa during their feeding. One the first morning walking from the cabin to Guest Hall for breakfast, the smells and sounds of the woods brought back memories of happy summers from long ago. Thank you very much for following your dream and creating this place."

"This is my anniversary and I started out just wanting something special for my wife. What I got was something much more. Beautiful scenery, ocean views, a relaxing environment. Not to mention the best hospitality ever. This place is the best, I'm sad to be leaving but happy to know that we will come back. Happy anniversary sweetheart, and thank you Michelle & Dean. See you soon."

"This has been the most romantic experience of my life. I honestly can say that this is paradise. Heaven on earth. The weather was very cold and rainy when we arrived and then turned into this beautiful day of hiking and walking on the beach. The bed is so comfortable and I absolutely love every little detail about his wonderful place. I think we want to spend every anniversary here. I can't wait to tell everyone I know about how amazing it was here. Ahh....Heaven on earth!"

"Fabulous place you have here - we wish I'd known about it before I started planning my trip because we'd have stayed for much, much longer. Will definitely be coming back - hopefully sooner rather than later - to stay here and (?) me more. All the best."

"We were lucky to find a free space here on our west coast road trip and luckier that yo u persuaded Paula & Christophe to open for your guests. We planned the start of our holiday in Portland and its end in San Francisco, but left this portion to chance and having a small mystery tour. Last night we were on the ocean & woken by the tide crashing on rocks, this morning we wake slowly as light filters through the woods and rain patters on the roof. Magic!"

"Thank you for a relaxing and magical time. One week was just enough to go home and feel like we had 4 weeks of vacation. The breakfast and hot tub a perfect delight. We could not wanted for anything. Everything here was and is done with love and thought. Thank you for a wonderful memory."

"Days out of time...magic in the woods. And such a gracious reception. Thank you."

"Thank you for the amazing amount of thoughtfulness, love, intent and work that have commingled to create this beautiful WildSpring. As we rest and renew, sleep, soak, sup, walk, breath, wonder, wander & gaze, we feel held by your intent amid the great trees, who,as they sway and sing and make air, give us our very life. Thank you."

"This was camping in luxury. Great for us older people. Thanks for a lovely 3 days."

"My wive, Alexa, and I just loved this pace so very much. Perfect for our ten-year anniversary. So many things were wonderful here. The views, the sheets, the shower, the trees, the nice guy with the cross necklaces, the invisible water and dolphins, the sink in the guest cabin is my favorite item on the property. Oh and the hot tub is just sweet. My wife loves the bed and I had such a hard time getting her out of it. Oh and she just loves how the nice sheriff pulls everyone over and welcomes them to Port Orford. It seems a strange greeting, but there are so many of them that must be the reason. Got to have those sheriffs to make everyone happy. We will be back."

"Thank you for sharing this miraculous place it was perfect. So nice to see a dream come true!"

"What special memories we will take back to North Carolina! To comfort and beauty created by your dream and hard work will be with us from now on. We wish you God's blessings in the years ahead. as you share with others the warmth and charm we so deeply enjoyed. Sincerely"

"Seeing Stars

We arrive to flowers in a vase,
a peach rose, a dahlia, we think,
and some unnamable stalk
with its hovering nebula of yellow buds.

After a dinner of bread and wine
we decide on a night walk
and close the cabin door
on a constellation of crumbs.

The woodchip path, which leads
to the spa and bench beyond,
both overlooking the dark harbor,
is lit by moons for moths.

Look up! This is the sky
which inspired the myths -
historical honey, original milk
spilled on a black table.

Back in cabin number two,
seven candles light the bed.
One by one we blow them out,
each a wish, each a star."

"What a magical enchanted forest. Thanks so much for your beautiful vision and endeavors of love. It was all so splendid; we will stay longer next time. Let us know when your huge shaman arrives. We will celebrate together."

"We can't get away very much so this was somewhere close to go to for a weekend. What a nice relaxing trip! Thank you for having such a peaceful place that thinks of all the details. We had a wonderful anniversary here & would highly recommend you. PS Thank you for making Scott a gluten-free breakfast! So kind."

"Into the redwoods, into the redwoods, into the redwoods I find myself."

"What a magical place - what a gift to spend the last two nights of our vacation here. We will return to life at peace and refreshed. Perfection."

"Amazing! You have created a truly magical getaway. Don't ever sell this property! If you do, sell it to us!!! Until then, we will just camp out in the woods in your surrounding property hahaha It is so lovely here. We can't wait to come back and will definitely spread the word to our friends and families that Port Orford & WildSpring are the best the Oregon coast has to offer. Thank you for the deliious food, comfy bed, beautiful cabins, whimsical art, and kind hospitality. Oh, and the hammocks, hottub & every other wonderful thing about your home. This has been a terrific part of our vacation/honeymoon. Much Peace, Health & happiness to you both."

"It felt like we were visiting your home. Very personal - unique. Thank you. Breakfast was great. Hot tub truly hot. Views wonderful. Massage - exactly what we needed. Thanx, we'll be back."

"Thank you so much. What am amazing place. So much love & thought has gone into creating WildSpring! Breakfast was delicious and the scenery - hypnotic. I could stay in theose hammocks for hours - staring @ the trees. Mornings are breathtaking. I will definitely spread the word... PS All writers should hike the Blacklock Trail - magnificant views of the ocean!"

"The redwoods swaying, looking up from the hammocks, was our favorite thing. Lovely place - thank you!"

"We had a marvelous stay. The food and hospitality were great. It's a wonderful place to relax and we had fun exploring Port Orford. Hope to come back again."

"Best sleep Brad has had in years. I've never felt so relaxed while on vacation. Can't wait to come back!"

"Not knowing what to expect: We came. We saw. We relaxed. We ate. We drank. We enjoyed. It's a favorite place! Long life WildSpring! (Our home is) north ofSeattle, where it's 103 today)"

"Bliss! For my husband's birthday we wanted a place to relax, away from the daily grind. Wildsprings more than fit the bill. This unique habitat is one worth coming back to again and again. Dean and Michelle really have every detail thought out, from the extra candles to the fresh and local breakfast, to the little alcoves, of art strategically placed throughout the acreage. What a great two days. Smiles,"

"Wildspring was recommended by a friend who thought we would like this place. The question, who wouldn't? Wind in the majestic trees, sun on the blue Pacific. "Mama" deer with her twin fawns, serenity...and of course, your caring attention to detail. We are blessed to have been able to share your beautiful corner of the world for even just a few days. Thank you for a lovely stay! Peace,"

"What a very special & unique environment you have created at WildSpring. You are to be commended on such wisdom & fortitude! And now, we have been the fortunate beneficiaries of all that you dreamed. So thank you for being! Our Raintree cabin was full of wondrous delights at every turn with every amenity to create a serene and life-affirming environment. We loved every special little detail and have great appreciation for all your lovely choices in furnishings and decor. While it is true that we too live in another beautiful part of the Pacific NW, the OR coast is definitely unique unto itself. Aren't we all fortunate to be immersed in this great beauty. Thank you for all!"

"Thank you for helping us remember what it means to relax. We are always on the go all 24/7 & we forget to do things...what (?) looks like to take a deep breath and...relax! What beautiful land & view especially on the deck at sunset - sipping a wonderful bottle of Oregon Pinot & realizing how lucky we are to share this beautiful earth!"

"We came to celebrate 25 years of marriage and found a spot as wondrous as those 25 years together. Highlights: Every small detail of design and decor (some to be replicated in Boulder...). A whale sighted in the bay (NEVER to be replicated in Boulder!). The walk at the lifeboat House where we recognized the western cousins of wildflowers and birds we've come to know by name over the years spent living further east on the continent. Waking up under sheltering trees in a bed that was incredibly comfortable - so much so we almost missed breakfast (classic case of bed vs breakfast, and bed almost won). Tracking the dancing flight of swallows from the hot tub and enjoying them those talents & this place to call home. Thank you for providing such a lovely, tranquil, and soulful backdrop for us as we continue on our little journey together."

"What a wonderful get-a-way from the rush & go of life. Jeremy & I had no idea it would be just what we needed but it was & that and more. Thank you!"

"Thank you! My daughter and I are thinking about making this trip again next year! Beautiful Oregon and yummy breakfast!"

"Dear WildSpring - you made my heart sing!!! Thank you for being... (the mid point of my road trip) And creating...THIS Magical Space! And sharing (just when we needed it most!!) I (heart) your vision (you rock). Thank you both so very much!! In love since 1985."

“All the joys of camping without the ickiness! Love place to spend our 26th anniversary! The spa at night under the Milky Way with all the stars – WOW.”
