Hi, Thinking of a trip to McMinnville/Newberg area. Looking for EV friendly B&Bs or resorts.

Here's what I have found so far:
The Carlton Inn, Carlton - Chargers at City Hall - 1800ft, 2 Blink J1772s (30A, I presume)
RR Thompson House, Carlton - Chargers at City Hall - 2000ft, 2 Blink J1772s (30A, I presume)
Oregon Mutual Insurance - 1 J1772
A couple of walgreens (J1772s)
Joel Palmer House Restaurant - appears to have 2 ChargePoint J1772 EVSEs
Stoller Winery has a wall outlet (not sure exactly what that means)
Le Puy Inn, Newberg. car charging station, but also a 9.9 kW solar array.

This was mostly culled from PlugShare/Recargo.

Are there any B&Bs that might let you hook up? I'm thinking Carlton may be my best bet at this point.

And, of course, the Woodburn SC is now open.

@123, Thanks, I saw that one in PlugShare/Recargo. My ideal is a B&B with a NEMA 14-50.

@efusco, Thanks, that's the right area.

It's a bit frustrating that so few hotels & B&Bs have made chargers available. I know I would book a room at a place that had one.
 
Sorry it took so long, finally got a reply from my friend at Wahle Vineyards...

We are off the grid at the vineyard so don't have that charger set up yet.

At the City Hall in Carlton nearby to the shared winery that I work at, there is
a public charger.

Additionally aerovironment(currently free) and blink have many chargers in our
wine region. Many of the Walgreens have them.

I make a fairly large loop through wine country when I go out and so far always
have enough reserve to get back to Portland.

My friends at Elk Cove have a Tesla and have put in a charger I'm told.
