What a wonderful weekend. Joka and her husband Keith are wonderful hosts. They welcomed us into their home. It really feels like you are visiting your mom. Both of them sat with us in the afternoon and enjoyed a bottle of wine with us. Joka made Dutch toast for me in the morning. Their recommendations for wineries are spot on. My wife and I walked to tasting rooms in town, so no worries about driving. Fresh cut flowers in all of the rooms, and wonderful linens on the beds, I could go on and on. My wife and I tend to jump from city to city exploring the United States, so we probably won't be back, but many of the fellow boarders are repeat customers of many years. I highly recommend if you like B&Bs. If you love wine, you should stay at the Carlton Inn!Walkability: You can walk to multiple wineries from the Carlton Inn. With a car, you can add dozens more. I recommend K&M, which is in town, the owner really knows his craft.Food & drinks: Joka makes an incredible breakfast at 8:30. The cheese souffle was delicious. The poached pears were so aromatic. The bacon is thick cut with mostly meat, low fat. She also got a sense that I don't love omelets, so she made me Dutch toast (Joka is Dutch) instead. Wow, talking about a good host.

Yoka and Fredrick our host and hostess were wonderful. Felt like we were home. The home is lovely with great ambiance. Food was fabulous. We were hooked on the Dutch coffee Yoka made for us. Lovely people and cozy placed to stay. Our rooms were large and had all the comforts. Close to town and wine tasting. We would stay again. Had a "girls vacation" with wine tasting and restaurant hopping. Great place!

We stayed here for a wedding reception/baby shower weekend. This was a first time B&B experience for the hubby and I. So glad that this was our first experience. Joka is an amazing hostess, along with Maggie, the Bichon, who is super adorable. The breakfasts are something to be experienced (sad I didn't get pictures) and are the perfect way to start your day. Joka is not just an amazing hostess, she is also a wonderful cook. We stayed in the Sunflower room (Eola Hills Room), which is the only room without a bathroom in the room, however the hall bath is right there and it's private to you only so it was not a big deal. The Inn is walking distance to a quaint downtown with some great places to eat and wine taste. It is also central to driving to other little towns. If we are in the area again, this will be a must return place to stay.

Joka is a first-class host who is easy and comfortable to interact with. The Inn is charming with layers of interesting decor and amenities for guests. One evening, we availed ourselves of decaf and the available liqueurs set out then watched a lightening storm from the covered back patio. Breakfasts are delicious and her Dutch coffee is amazing! Our stay was for my husband's birthday, and Joka even picked up a treat to put a candle in so we could all sing to him. It's a wonderful location that is walking distance to the Carlton restaurants, wine tasting rooms, and shops. I highly recommend!

We had a wonderful stay at this B&B. Our only regret was that we stayed just one night. The house and our Garden Room were lovely, but it was the hospitality, including but not limited to a delicious breakfast, that will prompt us to return for a longer stay. Stay here and you'll be rewarded with a generous and supremely fun host, a comfortable and quiet room, and many fond memories. Thank you Joka and crew!

My sister and daughter and I stayed here for the weekend of my granddaughter’s wedding and loved it !!! Joka and Keith are the perfect hosts and their inn is really pretty. The breakfasts were delicious and she even made a special treat for my birthday. I’m hoping to get back there as it’s the best B&B I’ve ever stayed at!! If you’re going to be in the area it should be your first choice for a place to stay!!!!

This B&B was perfect! Joka (Elisabeth) was the perfect host. The location is close to town. Couldn’t have been a better experience!

Exact bed and breakfast one can ask for , except better ( Pro-tip: at the exquisitely done breakfast table, all guests realized they were having dinner at the French restaurant Cuvée the night before . A perfect combination a small town can offer. )

What an amazing place!! It’s beautifully decorated, at a super Convinient location (walking distance 0.3 miles to multiple wineries, cafes and restaurants), and the hosts would make you feel you’re coming home. It’s our first time here and we will definitely return! We have met with friendly hosts from other B &Bs in the area, but never like Yoka and Kief!! From the moment we stepped in their magical place, we felt welcome, comfortable and at home. They both clearly enjoy the company from their guests. We went there their guests and left feeling like their friends. Highly recommend this little gem!!

A fun place to stay with excellent breakfasts and well kept rooms. The inn keepers are a delight. The B&B is located within walking distance to downtown Carlton, home to several tasting rooms and great restaurants. It is also within an hour's drive to hundreds of Willamette Valley wineries and tasting rooms. We'll plan future visits to the area around staying here.

Doing an Oregon Wine tasting trip & we found this wonderful B&B. Immaculate inn, with interesting, warm & friendly hosts with great breakfasts and lots of great stories. It’s within walking distance of town with great restaurants and tasting rooms, and short drives to lots of other wineries. We plan on going back!

The Carlton Inn B&B is exactly what you would expect. Joka and company were wonderful hosts providing a warm environment, delicious breakfast and great company. The Inn is located just a few minutes walk from Carlton where you will find good dining and numerous wine tasting opportunities. Back at the Inn, a comfortable large back porch awaits for you to enjoy cool evenings sipping on the day's wine finds. Such a wonderful stay...highly recommended.

We had such a wonderful stay at The Carlton Inn. Joka was such a delight and incredibly accommodating. The room was comfortable and beautifully decorated. A delicious breakfast topped off a perfect stay. Hope to visit again next time we're in the Willamette Valley.

We were so fortunate to have found the Carlton Inn on a recent wine trip. Joka and company were wonderful providing us with comfortable accommodations, delicious breakfasts and great company. The Inn is conveniently located to Carlton requiring only a few minute walk to great dining and wine tasting. Our return trips to the area will always include a stay at the Carlton Inn. Thanks, K&B
