  • WHAT IS THE COMPASS?

    the compass is the pilot project of advintures properties, a hospitality company focused on creating unique lodging experiences for adventure-minded travelers.


    its a space for people with a passion for luxury travel but are looking for a more bespoke experience than you can get from a traditional hotel chain.


    WHO ARE WE?

    we are a woman owned business, on a mission to create a network of experiential properties that foster community in the heart of wine country (hint - its why we call it advintures properties).


    hi! i am christie - the woman behind the business. after traveling the world for my corporate gig, sleeping in every type of accommodation you can imagine (for work and play), i came away inspired by all the unique ways people bridge community, hospitality and adventure. so much so that I knew it was my next calling.


    but while the compass was dreamed up by me, it was brought to life with the help of a whole host of friends and partners. its not mine, its ours!


    WHY HERE?

    mcminnville is magical - from the amazing happenings on 3rd street to the people who make this city feel like a community, we can't wait to share its magic with you!
