As a couple, we thoroughly enjoyed sharing both the Mixed light and Red Flight Win samplers. This was also our first chance to sample an "orange" wine, and Troon's Kubli Bench Amber, Estate blend was unusual and enjoyable!

This lovely winery with a scenic view down over the Applegate Valley would be a fine destination just for its excellent wines and its enticing patio areas (some of them covered) and a big fire pit. But what really surprises here is that this is believed to be the very first winery in the United States that also makes its own cheeses and its own meats too -- what a concept! Talk about eating and drinking "local." Wooldridge Creek is an enviable place, with friendly and helpful staff, where it is easy to wile away an hour or two in utter rural bliss, as we did.

8. Southgate Cinemas
Overall Ratings
3.5 based on 28 reviews
Reviewed By jerryandshirleyh - Grants Pass, United States
We are not drawn to big, fancy theaters where you need to purchase your tickets in advance because of limited seating in reclining seats. The folks working at the theatre are friendly and work hard to keep it clean. We go by ourselves on weekends, but meet with a group of 6 to 10 people for Tightwad Tuesday and are always able to get into the same theatre. Our grandkids live in the bay area and frequently need to pick up tickets in advance when they go to the show. That is seldom necessary here and they enjoy dashing in at the last minute. We hope against hope that this theatre doesn't change!
