Illahe Lodge Illahe Lodge is a fourth-generation family home and business. Illahe Lodge is our family's fourth-generation home and business. A.T. Thank you!

We provide meals with lodging in our country home while sharing life, stories, and history with our guests. The lodge was built in the late 1930s and early 1940s as my great-grandparents' retirement home. During construction, their friends and the folks that Grandpa Ernie and Grandma Florence had met while Grandpa was the caretaker at Jergen's Lodge (across the river from Foster Bar) started talking about coming for extended vacations in the fall when the half-pounders were running. Jergens and Bill Keck had drilled the first oil wells on Signal Hill in California and financed the movie production studios' move to what is now Hollywood. My great-grandparents didn't have that kind of money so they knew that, if their friends were going to come, they were going to have to charge them. That is the story of how Illahe Lodge started. Initially called "Schneider's Lodge", the name was changed to Illahe Lodge when my grandparents and father bought the lodge from my great-grandparents. When people stay at Illahe Lodge, they are guests in our family's home. Illahe Lodge is our home, not "Animal House." We provide meals, our standard beverages, free refills, and lodging. Guests are welcome to bring their own alcoholic beverages, if desired. (We don't sell or serve alcohol.) We allow smoking (to***co only and no e-cigarettes) in designated areas outdoors. (Please bring your own, if that is desired as we don't sell to***co products.) Questions or want additional information? You can send us a note through this page or our website, but the best way to reach us is by telephone at 541-247-6111. If we don't answer, please leave a message.

Pictures from Drift Adventures' trip that stayed with us on October 13, 2026.

The guests knew each other and were friends before the trip. They were mostly from Utah and Nevada. They told me that most of the people in the group worked in construction.

They all arrived at the same time, shook my hand, and introduced themselves. I promptly forgot their names, but they said that if I needed any help to ask for "Matt" and he'd be happy to help. I told them that I'm really good at pointing too... Laughing. They said that works too... It was a fun group.

Tim had a four boat trip here last night. After they left and I finished the dishes, stripped the rooms, started the laundry, and picked tomatoes (yes, I still have tomatoes), I went to Gold Beach for groceries.

The next group will be here on Friday. I have guests Friday, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday.

Our guests left after breakfast. Once I finished the dishes, I took my father to Gold Beach so he could check on something and I could get groceries for the upcoming groups.

By the time we got back, the temperature had cooled off to the upper 60s and I saw that a frost advisory had been issued for tomorrow night. I picked the tomatoes that had started turning red and closed the windows in preparation for any frost that materializes.
