#32 Our Favorite Haunted Getaway: Hot Lake Hotel (Ghosts Included)

Perched on the edge of The Grande Ronde Valley, The Lodge at Hot Lake Springs, also known as Hot Lake Hotel, has a rich and fascinating past. In this episode, we explore the history of the infamous Eastern Oregon landmark, from its early days as a luxury resort, to its later years as a hospital and sanitorium. Along the way, we share the ghost stories told in our childhood that still hover in the air, like the steam that rises from the lake. Now renovated, this boutique hotel is a beautiful, peaceful, and relaxing place to stay. Just don't be surprised if you sense something watching from the windows or lingering outside your door. But don't worry! If there are ghosts here, we are sure they are friendly... (at least we think!)
