Meet the
Family
The making of the newly renovated Roger's Creek has been a family affair. Michael & Rene Collins purchased the dairy in 2025, pulling in their daughter Jessica (and husband Jon) Tobiska and son Jon (and wife Alison) Booth.
This event center has been a big undertaking and each member brings some special skill to the table. At any given visit you are likely to see one of us- we can't wait to meet you!
The
Dairy
Like many locations along the Coos River, Roger's Creek Ranch has a long history. The land was originally owned by pioneer Stephen Rogers circa 1870. It was then owned by Reverend Neil Barnes who, with his son, also named Roger, ran the farm as a dairy in the 1930's.
After an accident that resulted in the death of the Reverend, the farm changed many owners and shifted its shape until we finally landed at what you see today.
Newly renovated, but still a piece of Coos Bay history.
