Following an open concept, there is one king-sized bed on the main floor, with two full-sized beds in the loft. On the main level is a wood stove, bathroom, and kitchen stocked with essentials to cover the basics. Enjoy the big, dining room table meant to mimic the tables Vikings would gather, feast, and celebrate around in halls throughout Europe during the Viking Ages.

We were able to maintain the original stone during the restoration process, along with most of the sturdy wooden bones. Our rustic furniture and distinctive decor are meant to create the ideal ambiance for relaxation before and after a long day of conquering the surrounding wilderness. Reimagined with inspiration from its historical European ancestors, The Scandinavian Hall aims to offer a space of suspended reality, where you’re protected from every attack on your serenity.

You’ll have full, private access to the east part of the hall. The west part of the hall is another short-term vacation rental. If you need more space, you can reserve both as our all-access Scandinavian Hall option.

I give my guests space but am available when needed. The in-app messenger is my preferred form of communication, however, guests can reach me via phone if needed. I rarely greet guests upon arrival, yet appreciate the opportunity when it arises. I have much respect for your vacation and space and will leave interaction up to you. Should any problems or emergencies come up, one of my team members or I will be available at most times of the day to respond.

A Scottish immigrant, John Shaw, hand-built this European-inspired hall in the early 1900s by chiseling every inch of stone he quarried locally. For years, John’s brother used the building as a mercantile store that sold all kinds of goods; groceries, farming equipment, hardware, shoes, furniture, tools, and tires. Throughout the early 20th century, it helped support and serve eastern Oregon community members and visitors. The Scandinavian Hall is an incredible monument of eastern Oregon history; it’s listed as an Oregon Historic Site through the National Registry of Historic Places.
