Life Northwest RV and Lodging

Horrendous experience. We were so excited to get out of town and this seemed like a great option, given the price and reviews. It was a nightmare. When we first walked into our room, we were hit with a scent of strong, unpleasant chemicals. The latch on the back door didn't work and therefore was 'locked' by using a wooden stick placed in the frame of the door. The mattress was lopsided/slanting. We had to kill two spiders in the bathroom. The towels & washcloths had a very musty smell. And, worst of all - there were very clearly many open rooms during our visit; unfortunately, there was a group of 5-7 people in the room directly above ours partying until 3am (turned out to be a bachelor party). The walls and floors in this motel are paper thin - you can literally hear full conversations as well as every step someone takes. This truly ruined the weekend for us (we were in town for the PNW half-marathon - getting 3 hours of sleep made for a brutal morning). The one positive was the woman working at the front desk. She was very pleasant and super nice. Sadly, they don't have staff there for assistance after 6pm (we called the front desk three times in an attempt to change rooms with no luck). You'd be much better off spending a few extra bucks and getting an AirBnB or another hotel in the area. If you decide to test your luck and give it a shot, I'd suggest requesting a room on the top floor. Rooms: Very low/poor quality

I am part of a work crew, and we spend three weeks in Linn County every summer. This season, we found Life Northwest, and this motel is hands down my favorite. A sentiment shared by everyone I spoke with on our crew. Kelly and the front desk staff are amazing. They make you feel so welcome and at home, which is a real treat when you spend the kind of time we do in motels. The rooms are very clean, nicely decorated and the furniture gives you a real home feel. All of the little things are great, water pressure, parking, quiet, and the view is amazing. My room has a small deck overlooking the Willamette river. I almost hate to post this review as this is the kind of place I will return to any time I am in the area. It's a hidden gem so I selfishly hope it doesn't become so popular I can't get a reservation...lol! The rooms have quality toiletries, coffee makers, and refrigerators. I have nothing but good to say about Life Northwest. Thank you for hosting our crew this season. I hope we get to stay with you next summer.

We have rented event space here several times, for a family reunion, a wedding anniversary and graduation party, and a school dance. The property and building are beautiful the price is very affordable, service is great. It is always clean and Life NE offers the use of chairs, tables, linens, and decor. We will continue to use this facility!

Rooms: Just a beautiful view of the river and wonderfully cozy room. Amazing for the price! Noteworthy details: Although, the bathroom door doesn't lock, so careful if you have kids! The bathtub makes up for that though.
