Getting There And Away
Please give us a call if you have any questions about transportation. We will send you very detailed travel options with your confirmation pack.
Driving:
North on I-5 (from Ashland and Medford Oregon and California )
- Take exit 61.
- Turn left at the end of the ramp.
- Go straight through the stoplight towards Merlin (you will be on the Merlin Galice Road).
- The road follows the Rogue River closely starting a few miles west of Merlin. After crossing over the high bridge in Hellgate Canyon, stay on the main road and keep the river on your right. The Galice Resort is on your right (and pretty difficult to miss).

Flying:
The Rogue Valley International-Medford Airport (MFR): You can fly to major airports in San Francisco, Sacramento, or Portland and then drive. However it is much more convenient to fly into our own Medford Airport. It is small, friendly, easy to get around, and has a fancy new terminal.
The airport is serviced by Horizon Air, United Express, Delta Connection, Sky West, and Allegiant Air. These carriers offer approximately 60 flights daily direct to and from San Francisco, Portland, Eugene, Seattle, Los Angeles, Phoenix, Denver, Las Vegas, and Salt Lake City. New flights and cheap fares are being added all the time - It is hard to believe that over 500,000 people fly in and out every year!
Allegiant Air has amazing deals on flights from Los Angeles, Las Vegas and Phoenix into Medford on Mondays and Fridays. You can find more information at their web site at http://www.allegiantair.com/aaIndex.php

The Portland Airport: (PDX)
The Portland airport about 4 hours from Galice. The drive is pretty, and many of our guests take an extra day or more to visit other places in Oregon. Crater Lake is between Portland and Galice, and the beautiful Oregon coast is about 25 miles from our take-out.
Car Shuttles to the Coast
If you are continuing on to the coast after the trip you may want to make arrangements with Galice Resort to shuttle your car to the take-out rather than returning with us. The Oregon coast is an amazing place to visit and explore - continue your adventure to where the Rogue meets the sea!
