Tucked away on a private lot in the Heart of West Linn you'll find the McLean House. This is perfect venue for your event or just an afternoon to enjoy the historic property. The West Linn Chamber of Commerce used this location for their 1st Opening Doors event in 2016. The weather was perfect to use the outdoor tent and beautiful garden area. They can host large or small events at this location. It was the perfect location for Afternoon Tea with the Ladies of the West Linn Lions Club and a Murder Mystery fundraiser.

This home has great historical value in our city, and is appropriate for many different uses. For instance, my sister had her lovely wedding reception here and the memories still linger beautifully. In addition, I have attended many other events here, including a volunteer appreciation dinner, a historic society presentation, and a holiday bazaar. The space is versatile and can be adapted for many uses. It has a fine kitchen that can be used by renters or taken over by the caterer for all occasions. There is ample parking and the grounds around the home are beautiful. I have enjoyed all of the events I have attended here, and the home itself has been a large part of the ambient environment for those events. I highly recommend this venue for your next upcoming event.

We helped host a wedding here this year. The facility is beautiful especially in the spring when the rhododendrons are in bloom. The staff was helpful and very friendly.

My son and daughter-in-law got married here. The setting is beautiful. The house is lovely inside. The bridal party used the house for hair and makeup and changing into their wedding clothes. We also used the entry and living room for gifts and the guestbook. The gardens are also beautiful and make a perfect setting for a wedding. The only downside is that the outside is maintained by the city and they don't have regular gardeners. As a result, we went over before the wedding (seven people!) and worked all day weeding and pruning everything so that it would look nice for our event. It seems to me that they should be able to afford a full-time gardener. There is also a freeway that runs in front of the house near the river. It is quite noisy at certain times of the day. Fortunately for us, on Saturday, the noise wasn't very noticeable when we were in the garden area for the ceremony and the reception. Overall, it was a lovely event in a beautiful setting.

Our daughter used this beautiful place for her wedding venue. The grounds are beautifully maintained and all of the flowers were in full bloom. It is a very peaceful setting adjacent to the Willamette River at the end of a cul-de-sac. The Friends of McLean house volunteers were extremely helpful and accommodating. The entire home can be used for wedding preparations, food storage and preparation, receiving guests, reception afterwards, outdoor gazebo for outdoor wedding weather permitting, large tent for reception or wedding if rainy, and an upright piano inside the house which is in tune and plays well. Highly recommend as a wedding venue or any other special event.
