Luxury Hotel On Tap for Oregon Wine Country

NEWBERG, OR-An 85-room hotel will launch development of a 433-acre tract here that also is slated for commercial and residential development.

NEWBERG, OR-An 85-room high-end hotel is slated to kick-off development of a 433-acre tract of land here in the heart of Oregon’s wine country, an area dotted with bed-and-breakfasts but lacking a larger luxury property. The land owner and developer is the Austin family of Newberg, which makes its money manufacturing dental chairs and is the city’s largest employer.

The 35-acre hotel development, which is slated to get stated next year, will include a separate but adjacent restaurant and spa. The master plan also includes as much as 1,000 for-sale residential units on about 300 acres, 33 acres for office/light manufacturing, 13 acres for retail/commercial and 50 acres for parks, open space and trails.

The project has long been a dream of Joan Austin, the family’s 76-year-old matriarch. “We have had many offers over the years from developers who wanted to purchase our property,” Austin says in a prepared statement. “We could have sold and lost control of the quality of the way it will look and feel.”
