Enjoyed a relaxing stay at the Bridge Creek Flora Inn the end of April. Found the place to be a true gem. We had the downstairs suite with private bath in the older house (c.1905). Loved the antique decor and down-to-earth welcome! Breakfast was super! Great sausage, farm-fresh eggs and a whole raft of tasty pancakes. Nice trimmings too, fresh orange slices, excellent coffee by the carafe, juice and cake. We were stuffed until dinnertime! Fossil is a truly quiet town, has benches all up and down the main drag where people visit. There is one tavern and one cafe. People wave, including the Sheriff. Behind the High School, on the hillside are fossils in shale that you can dig for. The scenery is awesome, ranging from piney canyons with sheer rock walls to desert sagebrush. The cattle look buffed. It is somewhat of a trip back in time.

Wonderful LITTLE town perfectly located if you want to visit the John Day Fossil Beds. Fascinating two old buildings for the inn. We stayed upstairs in the older building. Roomy and cozy rooms with lovely beds and quilts. Antiques everywhere. Fantastic breakfast. The hosts are extremely knowledgeable and friendly. The place smells old and mustly, small bugs were present in the bathroom, the carpets could use a good cleaning but we still loved it - what can you expect for a 100+ year old building. The metal sculpted woolly mammoth out front is a hoot!

Fossil is a quiet and peaceful little town. It's so quiet that you can hear almost everything happening in the town!!! We stayed Bridge Creek Flora Inn's victorian room with a shared bathroom, but there are rooms with private bathrooms at the Fossil Lodge (the same owner). Owner cooked and served the best hot breakfast I ever had at a B&B. If I have a chance to visit that area again, I will definitely stay here again.

  • Liked — Breakfast, dining room decor
  • Disliked — none
  • Any tips/secrets for future travellers? — Summer can be quite hot.
