Jacksonville is a city in Jackson County, Oregon, United States, about 5 miles (8 km) west of Medford. It was named for Jackson Creek, which runs through the community and was the site of one of the first placer gold claims in the area. It includes Jacksonville Historic District which was designated a U.S. National Historic Landmark in 1966. We spent 3 days at Plymale Cottage in this quaint and peaceful city where time almost stands still. With thanks to Shawn and Denise, for giving us a brief history of the city, for showing us around and exploring the surrounding areas. Wonderful place.
