On our way home from the Oregon coast we stopped at one of my favorite local hangs, Mcmenamins Edgefield. Not only do they brew beer and make wine, they also distill their own spirits. It is a huge grounds with a 100 room hotel as well as multiple restaurants and bars. This is from their website.

A little bit about the property from their website as well.

"The stately main building, with over 100 guestrooms and hostel accommodations, is furnished in turn-of-the-century decor. There are no televisions or telephones in the rooms, encouraging tranquility as surely as do the rocking chairs on our verandas. Guests may choose from rooms with private bathrooms or with conveniently located common bathrooms down the hallway. We do offer complimentary WiFi around the Black Rabbit Restaurant, the Library and in many of our event spaces."

The building was originally built to be the Multnomah County Poor Farm. The history is really interesting and I'd explore it more here but I'm about to get in a plane and I want to post this before I do.

In addition to all the restaurants and bars they have a decent size outdoor concert venue where I saw Weird AL Yankovic last year.
