Seize your opportunity to stay in this rich piece of history with a group of up to 6 couples! If you don’t need the entire space, you can rent out the east or west hall separately. Both are mirror images of each other but have their own distinctive flavor. The Scandinavian Hall is not only a good option for lodging in North Powder, but it's close to Baker City and La Grande, both of which offer many attractions. Here, you are centrally located to everything, including Anthony Lakes Ski Resort!
The space
Following an open concept, both sides of the hall feature one king-sized bed on the main floor, with two full-sized beds in the loft. Each side has a wood stove, bathroom, and kitchen stocked with essentials to cover the basics. Enjoy the big, dining room tables 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.
Connecting both sides of the hall is a set of lockable double suite-share party doors.
Guest access
You’ll have full, private access to every part of the vacation rental when you book the all-access option.
Other things to note
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.
