Kristin and Curt bought the property the B&B sits on in 2005 and worked with an architect and contractor to build the house that would become Chehalem Ridge Bed and Breakfast, opening for business in 2007.  Kristin runs the day-to-day operations at the Bed and Breakfast as innkeeper, chef, bookkeeper, maintenance wiz, marketer and more. Although Curt continues to commute into southwest Portland on weekdays as Principal and co-founder at Variant Investments, he is hands-on when it comes to the Bed and Breakfasts’ technology and landscaping.
