Three Rivers Chorale draws from people in the general area around the Rogue, the Illinois and the Applegate rivers.. Nice chorus and they sing some of their own tunes. Directed by Dave Marston.

Rogue River/Hellgate Jet Boat Trips

The river is amazing. You must go down the river either in rafts or tahitis, or with the Hellgate Jet Boat Trips. They are excellent. The dinner cruise is excellent (all you can drink beer and wine), as is the brunch trip (all you can drink champagne!).

Dutch Bros

If you've ever enjoyed the best coffee from the small drive-thru Dutch Bros stands throughout the Northwest, or if you haven't, you must stop at the Home of the great cup-o-java, Dutch Bros walk-in Coffee House. It has a coffee shop/sportsbar atmosphere, with stunning wall murals and contemporary detail. And the coffee drinks are perfect.

Hellgate Jetboats

This is one of the main things to do here in Grants Pass. It's very easy to find the jetboat location because this is a small town. We took the four hour cruise and banquet.
This trip went up the Rogue River where we were carefully navigated through the rocky walls. We saw abundant wildlife in the open areas. Even though we got splashed and drenched we enjoyed 360's on the river. Sometimes the other boats would do a 360 to deliberately splash us! The Country Banquet offered popular country-style Barbecued Ribs and Chicken, plus Fresh Vegetable and Ranch Potatoes. This was followed by Dessert and choice of Beer, Wine, Tea, Lemonade, and Coffee. One of the things that was nice at the Banquet was that they had our names at our place where we were to sit. That way we didn't have to ask others if a place was taken. It really was a great little trip.

This restaurant/cafe is absolutely breathtaking. The decor is amazing, and the food is beyond wonderful! They use high quality ingredients, and the desserts are unremarkable! Definitely give it a try, you will NOT be disappointed!

Favorite Dish: All of the desserts are wonderful. The cheesecake is to die for, and their cinnamon rolls and sandwiches are awesome!
