For nearly 40 years, Pat and Kathy Butler have returned to Ashland and Country Willows, where theatre, cycling, and peaceful mornings have become a cherished tradition. Their story is one of love, routine, and the kind of place that feels like coming home.
The 2026 season of the Oregon Shakespeare Festival brings an exciting mix of Shakespeare classics, award-winning musicals, and powerful contemporary plays to Ashland. With its peaceful setting just minutes from the theaters, Country Willows Inn offers the perfect place to relax and recharge during your theater getaway.
