Our daughter was recently married at the incredible Miller Farm Retreat. The working orchard setting with massive evergreen trees and Mt. Hood views is so beautiful, and the themed accommodations were very clean and comfortable. Our gracious hosts, Bobbi and Steve, have added rustic and historic details along with landscaping to die for. The spacious bar-dance floor were well used and enjoyed, as was the swimming pool by young and old alike. Sit and socialize, take a stroll, soak in the enchantment, visit a local fruit stand, and the list goes on. A memorable wedding weekend, to say the least!

My fiancé and I were lucky enough to stay here during a wedding and we WILL be returning for our wedding someday. This place is amazing, and truly one of a kind. Steve and Bobbi were GREAT to us. Steve was very polite and always helpful if needed, as well as Bobbi. We got to stay in one of the cabins with amazing, breath taking views from every window. My two small children LOVED the farm, swimming all day or just running around the beautiful gardens exploring. We also loved roasting marshmallows by the fire pit and after my kids went to bed I loved relaxing in the sauna or Jacuzzi. You don't know true serenity until you visit here.

We have been to Miller Farms retreat every year for three years. What a hidden treasure! We attended a wedding and reception there, it was top notch! The venue is an absolute gem and Steve and Bobbie are outstanding.

Bobbi at Miller Farm is the BEST! She has created a beautiful, magical, mystical GEM hidden up in Parkdale, OR! The view of Mt.Hood is spectacular, the rental homes (including treehouse!) delightful, and the hot tubs, fire pits, and heated pool are all icing on the cake. I couldn't have DREAMED of a better place to celebrate our big day. All of our friends and family were blown away!

The setting at the Miller Farm Retreat provided a backdrop for our
daughter's wedding that was magical. She was married in a small field of
clover standing before snow capped Mt. Hood, followed by a dinner
reception under giant old growth firs in a forest wonderland. The property was impeccably landscaped and efforts were ongoing throughout our stay to maintain that standard. The beautiful paths and gardens were the walkways to drinks and dancing for our guests. The tables were perfectly decorated with flowers from nearby farms; excellent local wines were served and the caterer was at ease with the property's career kitchen. The Farm was able to accommodate 20 of our family comfortably for days in unique and creative houses. We all shared the pool, bonfire pit, deck and meals in a beautiful and fascinating environment that was ideal for seamlessly blending a reunion of friends and family with an amazing wedding.
Steve and Bobbi worked with us continuously
throughout our stay to insure that all our needs were met and we always
felt comfortable asking for help.
We could not be happier with choosing this truly world class location for
our festivities. The Miller Farm Retreat was the perfect spot for our
friends and family to gather, bond and celebrate such a wonderful event.

A hidden gem!


My husband and I recently got married at Miller Farm Retreat and (though we may be biased) we both agree it was the best wedding either of us have ever been to! The garden is gorgeous and the view of Mt Hood is spectacular. We got married under huge old growth Douglas firs with a beautiful arbor provided by Miller. It was like a dream! They have hundreds of lights strung around the property making it come alive at night. Our guests were blown away by the beauty of the grounds. We barely had to decorate with all of the garden flowers and vintage touches scattered around. They provided all of the audio equipment, so we had a friend DJ and saved a bunch of money on music. The dancefloor and bar are large and were super fun! At the end of the night our guests enjoyed smores at the fire pit before heading home. The housing was great because our out of town friends could stay at the venue and enjoy the pool and hot tub. Everyone had a terrific time at the wedding and have been talking about it for weeks. It is definitely a hidden gem!

Amazing wedding venue! Miller Farm Retreat is one of the prettiest spots in the entire gorge. Great views of Mt. Hood, beautiful gardens and unique setting. Our wedding day couldn't have gone more smoothly. Steve was a great host, very helpful and made sure that we had everything that we needed. It is a great spot for a live band. Where else can you stay in a treehouse on the night of your wedding?!? All of our guests were blown away with the beauty of the location and we were able to create a really memorable evening for everyone. Parkdale has some of the best locals we've ever met. We had a local band play, local beer/wine, and dinner was catered by Apple Valley BBQ which is located right in Parkdale. Everyone went above and beyond our expectations. We were able to take our time cleaning up the following day which helped to keep our weekend stress-free.
Miller farm is surrounded by beautiful orchards. The only thing to keep in mind is that not all of them are on Miller Farm Property. Just stay out of the orchard to the south, which is owned by the neighbors and you will have no issues.

After losing our original venue three weeks before our wedding, we lucked upon Miller Farm Retreat. The location and setting is absolutely mindblowingly beautiful. The view of Mt. Hood is one of the best. The venue is located in the middle of a working orchard, and is surrounded by tall Douglas Firs. Bobbi and Steve were very flexible with our short notice wedding, but it was sometimes difficult to get a hold of them. Otherwise, everything was a breeze, and the property is beyond beautiful. Thank you Miller Farm!!!

My daughter had her wedding party stay there there several years ago and I am still telling people the HORROR story of how we were treated by the Miller’s. We went up there to confirm our details a month before the wedding and Bobbi had no idea about our weekend booking. She was not organized....she was not very pleasant to us and we were paying them a lot of money to stay there. Thank goodness we had the wedding at a different location, we just had the rehearsal dinner at MF. It is a beautiful setting, but that is all it has going for it. Look elsewhere for a wedding venue....getting married is stressful enough for the bride....you don’t need to add the problems you encounter staying at MF.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
