Located in an old county poor farm, this lodging is now the center to an entertainment destination with a winery, brewery, distillery, golf course, movie theater and artists' studios.
Did not meet all AAA rating requirements for viewports/peepholes in some guest rooms at time of last evaluation on 03/23/2016. Facilities, services, and décor characterize an economy property.
I-84 exit 16, just s on 238th Dr, then just e. 2126 SW Halsey St 97060.

Pros: Great first experience with a hostel! The property was gorgeous. I wish I could have stayed longer!
Cons: I never used the pool/spa because I was unfamiliar with the grounds and since
I was by myself I was apprehensive about wandering around.

Pros: This place is fun and quirky. Well worth the visit.
The price/atmosphere/convenience made it feel like we got more than we paid for...very affordable.
The community bathrooms were clean and easy to access.
Our dormitory stay was interesting - supplies were plentiful and easy to acquire if we needed more.
We splashed around in the soaking pool (excellent layout)..sipped cocktails (easy to purchase and bartenders were eager to accomodate)...had a meal in a fun restaurant (service was acceptable)...did some wine tasting (live music for entertainment)...we were traveling through and had only one night.
Cons: The men's dormitory was hot. The pillow was too small.
One member of our group (woman's dormitory) had trouble with the lock on her locker - the front desk was very helpful in correcting the problem to suit our needs.
The wine tasting steward just poured the wine....no conversation / explanations / suggestions...very disinterested in making us feel important. We wondered if the live music at the wine bar was louder than the space required and it was difficult for the steward to make conversation?

Pros: There was a lot of things to do during the day or night! The grounds were amazing, beautiful & yet still old & historical feeling!! The best of both worlds
Cons: The bed was possibly from early 1900's not the most comfortable or quiet! Nothing a good massage at rubys spa can't cure!! I recommend an hour ,price is right!

Pros: It is a very unique place and you must stay at least one night
Cons: Though the room were very reasonably priced, we found everything else was very expensive. Understanding though, it would've been a very costly undertaking to restore and also expensive to keep up. It was hard to get used to sharing a bathroom but worked out AOK. Reminded me of dormitory days walking down the hall in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom.

Pros: I have visited Edgefield many times over the years but this was the first overnight stay and it was all the greatness I knew it would be.It was our anniversary and they gave us an unexpected complimentary treat. Classy and comfortable, relaxing and fun.
Cons: My only complaint and I almost feel bad saying now and not at the time. At 10:30pm we called for room service, which goes til midnight, and we were told they would deliver pizza but not tots so we he to come get it. So we waited the time given,got dressed, and went down there. Out food was not done and told to wait 10 minutes, had a drink and waited 20 minutes and still wasn't done they said. Ok finally it was given to us and it was COLD like it had been sitting out for at least 10 minutes and the pizza was under cooked. So disappointed but so hungry after long day. We ate most of it and still didn't complain to them. Maybe should have, if I owned a business I would want to know.
