Parkside Picnic Basket

Parkside Picnic Basket

We offer a Parkside Picnic Basket as an add-on to your stay – perfect for an afternoon in Lithia Park, before an OSF matinee, or a leisurely drive through the Applegate Valley. 

Each picnic includes a homemade chilled main dish, a fresh side and/or salad, a sweet treat, beverages, and all the essentials you need for relaxed outdoor dining – packed and ready to go. Guests choose their menu in advance, and we take care of the details.

This is an optional add-on – please order at least 48 hours in advance. Pricing is $38 per person.
