Unbelievable Experience - Great Wine and Awesome Food

Phenomenal place to stay in the heart of wine country. The hosts are extremely nice and go out of their way to make your stay memorable. The included breakfast was one of the highlights of every day for all of us. Very tasty. Their wine is delicious and if you stay be sure to pick up a few bottles and joint their club. We are definitely coming back as this place has it all even for those in our party who did not drink.

Unwind in wine country!

It's hard to know where to start with this review as there are so many highlights to call out. From the magical location perched above the vineyards and the valley to our gracious hosts Kerry and Charlie to the amazing food and wine on offer, Balanza does not disappoint. What makes this property so unique is that ideally located between every place you want to visit across the region while also being somewhere you want to just sit back, open a bottle of pinot, and enjoy the many spaces around the home to unwind. We will be back for sure.

About the host

Hosted by Kerry Balanza

On our second visit to Oregon we bought "the farm" - a small farm in the Dundee Hills accented by Jory soil, a south-east facing slope, and stunning views of the valley. We never before imagined leaving our home in Texas, yet now we could see ourselves "retiring" someday to join the growing community of wine growers focused on pinot noir. We both fell in love quickly, and after planting our first vineyard in 2014 we realized that our hearts and future were fully rooted in Oregon.

Taking a leap of faith, we purchased a neighboring vineyard site and embarked on building our family home with private guest suites for friends both old and new. We love sharing the peaceful nature of Oregon wine country, the inspiring vistas of the Dundee Hills and the day-to-day operation of a small vineyard. We hope you make our home yours when visiting the Oregon wine country.

Why they chose this property

We were rambling down Archery Summit Road after an afternoon of tasting at some of our the most beautiful vineyards in the Dundee Hills - when we stumbled upon a small old farm. It was only days before a dream of owning our own small vineyard in Oregon became a reality. Both the land and wine community captured our hearts and now here we are.

What makes this property unique

Our property has 280 degree views of beautiful Dundee Hills vineyards. We enjoy an unobstructed view of the Cascade range from Mt Hood to Mt Jefferson on the east side (perfect for sunrise) and a rolling view of vineyards to the west which set off the sunsets perfectly. We have constructed our guest house, guest rooms and deck to enable our guest to enjoy these spectacular views.

We are also licensed as a winery and happy to share and make available our small batch, locally grown and crafted wines. Please contact for information about adding a private tasting or to arrange a welcome bottle for your stay. We do on occasion host private wine club member pick-up appointments in our BBQ barn or on our kitchen deck. Wine club guests do not have access to the main guest spaces in our guest house.
