“The former schoolhouse setting at McMenamins Anderson School lends a compelling sense of history, evident in repurposed classrooms and artful murals throughout the grounds. Outdoor seating areas with fire pits and lively courtyards with live music create a relaxed social atmosphere, complemented by a pleasant pool and on-site cinema. It feels like a destination where you can truly settle in and leave the car parked.”
