Victorian Secrets is a cozy home in the heart of Newberg. A close walk to Rosmarinos Italian restaurant and The Painted Lady, as well as a cute coffee shop/bookstore, it is a great location in a safe and quiet neighborhood. The interior of the home is adorable with spacious bedrooms, and we enjoyed hanging out in the outdoor covered area in the mornings and evenings. We went for a girls wine trip to celebrate my birthday and it was the perfect spot for us! Rachel is a fabulous Vrbo host that is very responsive with great recommendations for restaurants and wineries to visit! My friends and I were so impressed with Newberg and Willamette Valley wine country that we are already talking about our next trip there in the future, and we hope to stay at Victorian Secrets again upon our return!
