Come Stay in The Nest B&B in Brownsville, Oregon

“Welcome to The Nest B&B, a cozy cottage in a tiny town. The Nest is your own private retreat located just a short stroll away from historic downtown Brownsville. Situated right next to the historic millrace which once powered the Brownsville Woolen Mills and sawmill, The Nest is steps away from antique shops, casual dining, the Linn County Historical Museum, and one of the best swimming holes on the Calapooia River.”

Guess that says it best… Linn County’s newest bed and breakfasts found in downtown Brownsville. Right there in the center of this neat “… small town, with fascinating people, classic houses, picket fences, old fashioned front porches and a lazy river that winds through our beautiful city park.“ Plus it’s a neat town and a great place to shoot a movie!

Mandy Cole said she and Tony Gorsline, publisher of Bedbug Press, are having fun running The Nest. This is their second year and business is just where they want it. Most of their guests are visiting friends and relatives (VFRs). Plus there are a few tourists who drive by and are attracted by the “The Nest B&B” sign and the look of the cottage. They drop in and spend a night or two.

The Nest B&B and home offices of Bedbug Press are at 308 Averill Street. That is a block off North Main Street and right across the street from the park behind Brownsville’s Community Library.
