By far the coolest place we have ever stayed. The Vintages trailer park in Dayton Oregon is a campground where you can stay in old vintage trailers that have been restored. See more of my work at www.tmcewenphotography.com
This blockhouse was originally part of Fort Yamhill from 1856-1866.  The eight-sided design made it easier to defend, as rifle ports could be placed every 45 degrees instead of every 90 degrees. 

In its later years the blockhouse was used as a jail before being rescued and relocated to Dayton in 1911.
