Shady Cove: Where Upper Rogue River Recreation Opportunities Abound

After starting as a small alpine stream near Oregon's Crater Lake the Rogue leaves the steep Cascade mountains and enters a peaceful little valley that lies halfway between Ashland and Crater Lake. Here, on the shores of a quiet Rogue river lies the community of Shady Cove. From Shady Cove recreation enthusiasts can raft, fish, kayak, hike, and more on or near the Rogue. And, after a day of outdoor activities you can catch a great meal and reflect on what tomorrow's adventures might bring!

For more info on the Shady Cove area please see below:

 

Shady Cove Lodging: For a nice riverside motel we suggest the Edgewater Inn. It has a great observation deck and rooms that look right out on to the Rogue. Another option that is a nice Rogue River Bed and Breakfast option just outside Shady Cove is the Rogue River Guest House. This friendly and unique place is also located right on the river in the historic town of Gold Hill, Oregon.

Shady Cove Dining: We recommend the Two Pines Smokehouse which is hmm, hmm, good! And it has a great atmosphere. Be sure to check out their smoked barbecue selection! This place just seems to go with what you did all day in the area and is a top Shady Cove restaurant.

Shady Cove Jet Boat Rides: There are no jet boat trips in Shady Cove itself. You will need to head to Grants pass and Hellgate Jetboat Excursions which offers a variety of trips up and down the Rogue river including tours through the rapid-filled Hellgate Canyon.

Rogue River Fishing Guides in Shady Cove. We, again and again, recommend Rogue Excursions for great Rogue salmon fishing trips and steelhead trips. Call 800-797-4293 for info.

Shady Cove Rafting: Most rafting on this section of river is self guided thanks a good selection of raft rental companies. We recommend Get Wett for Shady Cove raft rentals and kayak rentals.

There are also lots of hiking, biking and lake-based recreation opportunities at nearby Lost Creek Lake.
