The Historic Oregon Hotel was first
built in the early 1800's. The old building was swept away by
the waterspout in June of 1904. J. W. Carroll who had been in
the hotel business for some years rebuilt a new structure to be
completed and ready for occupancy on October 1, 1904. Mr.
Carroll expected to cater to commercial travelers, in particular,
and make Tthe Oregon Hotel second to none in Eastern Oregon.
The structure was destroyed by a fire in 1936. The third
and present-day Oregon Hotel was constructed in 1938 by Baxter
Paine.
New owners, Hugh and Skeeter Reed,
have recently done a complete renovation of the entire Hotel,
restoring it to it's previous condition and adding "Homey" touches
of their own. With nine and 1/2 suites, one hostel and 2
kitchenettes, The Oregon Hotel is able to accommodate anyone by
providing a resting place with style and comfort at a good
price. |
