This Abandoned Building Became a LUXURY HOTEL ⭐ MEGA TOUR & Staycation Vlog
Вставка
- Опубліковано 8 чер 2024
- For the next three nights, we're staying at a historic landmark tucked away in over 300 acres of forest and it's only a 30-minute drive from Seattle! The building was originally completed in 1931 and operated as a seminary for about 45 years. When the seminary closed in 1976, the building sat empty for 45 years.
Upon decades of deterioration, the property went through a $57 million restoration. While preserving its history, the building transformed into a luxury boutique hotel called The Lodge with a restaurant, spa, two bars and an art gallery. There’s also a gymnasium where you can play pickleball! The Lodge also hosts weekly yoga classes, live music, afternoon high tea, weddings, corporate meetings and more.

Thanks to The Lodge for hosting our stay and sponsoring this video! We hope you enjoy our tour of this historical landmark. I visited The Lodge twice before for fun (once for lunch and once for cocktails) before this collaboration. Thrilled to sleepover on this third visit and share the extensive tour!

What happened to your other channel? Where you made food and tried different Korean dishes?
I haven't watched Miss Mina in a while, so to come back to watch everything that I missed is so great to know and see! My binge watching starts now.
I love when she uploads, it's my therapy. Her voice is so calming and I love her style of vlogging!
Edit: Mommy Oh's head bopping up and down at the gym made me laugh so much
I'm thankful to hear you enjoy my video style! Hope you enjoy this historic hotel tour ❤
@@MissMinaOh what the place called? And where is it?
I agree!!
What a perfect choice this was for a Mina and Mommy Oh video. It reveals Mina's talent as a purveyor of interesting and very watchable commentary on the food and travel scene. Thanks Mina!!
The building looks like a haunted house been abandoned decades ago only to be loved and taken cared of overtime.
Ik it looks very pretty and historical to the eye
im back to watch miss nina's videos Its been 4years since i stop watch your video and now I'm back ❤
As someone with gut health issues, my relationship with food quickly turned into an anxiety-ridden experience. So I love watching Mina and her mom enjoying diverse dishes that I probably could never eat! It's therapeutic and motivates me to take better care of my health. I have no choice but to ask if you take any probiotics or incorporate any probiotic-rich foods into your daily meals? Do you easily digest every meal you have during your travels?! That's amazing!
i remember she usually take walks in between whenever she travels on a food trip
Oooh great questions! Now everyone's body is different, so I can only speak for mine. I often eat kimchi. The one from Costco by Jongga has been pretty good so far. Sometimes I'll have it right out of the container to go with my main dish. Or cook it and make fried kimchi quinoa. When I'm traveling I tend to eat more adventurous and indulge in a wider range of foods. At home I reduce eating fried foods and anything too sugary (basically eat less of things that make me feel tired). Overall I try to listen to what my body is telling me. If I don't feel good after eating something, I'll take note and eat less of it in the future (or none at all depending on the situation). Also EXERCISE is huge!! Helps with digestion, relieving stress, boosting the mood, etc. Even if I eat "healthy" (since health means something different to every person and body), if I don't exercise, I start feeling depressed and have slow digestion. No matter what I eat, exercise makes life so much better in many ways. Also the timing and quantity of what is eaten can play a part. There's no one factor usually. There's so much to say about food and health. Also many opinions since everyone's health journey can vary so much. But I hope this helps you somehow!
Hi Miss Mina, every now and then I come on UA-cam to check your channel. I admire your passion to travel and calming voice!
I love your videos with your Mom. So nice to be able to travel and adventure together. Thank you💕🌻
Mina, i’ve been watching your vids since the world fell apart (2020) and like you’ve inspired me to be a better person. I thank you for that ❤
hello miss mina I've been watching you for 3 yrs now ahhh i literally love you and mommy oh and all of your videos plus I love how creative you areee! ur videos are very informative and very entertaining! u deserve so so much likes, views and subs💟💟💟💟
You have gained so much art inspiration from this stay. I mean, everything is just so aesthetic!
This s good for my mental health 😭😭🌸
I love mina eonnie because she gave us detail on everything 😍 feel like i was there too..
Hi Miss Mina-- Mommy Oh and your rooms are luxurious with nice treats. I loved the art galleries, and your dinner looked delicious too. The nature trail with its ancient trees, multiple beaches on Lake Washington, and oyster mushrooms seemed fun to hike and explore. Andre Feriante plays fantastic Spanish guitar! Thanks for the tour! Jenny Seattle 💜🥀🦋
The best vlog i've ever watch with nice & smooth voice and informative as well
This may have been my favorite place you've ever done I loved it I love to hunt mushrooms and I love that you are excited about them too. What an awesome property I would love to go there
So happy to hear you've enjoyed learning about this place! And seeing that there were oyster mushrooms at the park, I imagine there may be plenty more funghi popping up this next mushroom season 😍
What a lovely place it looks like a treat! ❤ I hope one day I can visit
Thank you Mina and Mommy Ho
Sabrina 🇫🇷🇬🇧

20:49 the tree on the right looks like he has a face (but only at that angle) lol! That place is awesome! Thanks for sharing 💜💜
I went to an open-market; this Thursday. My mountain-bicycle’s front wheel clamp sinched on me; mid-pounce! The screw at the end-cover, cracked completly and my front wheel confused me landing flat. I thought the clamp just got jiggled and went loose! Nope! The whole screw at the end-cover broke clean. I’m hoping those ‘REI-CO-OP’ mountain-bicycles start upgrading their density on the wheel-clamp screws! They’re such a dependable ride, and very exciting to ride everyday. And I mean, every single day. No matter what weather, the ‘REI-CO-OP’ mountain-bicycle; specifically the DRT models; are to me my go-to bicycle when living in an urban town. The maintenance is very limited and they can take a beating. Like a accidental drop on it’s side barely winces the whole bicycle. It’s very durable, and the ‘KENDA’ tires are extremely responsive on flat and groovy surfaces. I don’t recommend the bicycle to just anybody, because I don’t know when I’m going to come across another instance of technical-difficulties totaling the whole bicycle itself and I want all the CO-OP bicycles to myself; just in case I come across another wear-and-tear infraction. It sucks not having the correct size of bicycle, that’s why! I’m greedy for my bicycle! I like it! I don’t want a car! I want to one day purchase a dual-suspension worth more than $1,000 US dollars so I can attract the attention of criminals; they try to sabotage MY bicycle, and let karma catch up with them and infect the ears of people willing to hear their allabys. They’re great… the bicycles… them… those things… the bicycles… the bicycles, from ‘REI’ are great. I was totally ready to move it or lose it when my bicycle gave in from under me. I don’t wear knee-pads and elbow-pads, so I don’t try unusual maneuvers not intended for children to run away scared from. I ride my ability and level, and stay easy on the breaks; even downhill. It’s fun! It keeps me busy and grounded with my surroundings and environment. I’m not using over $10,000 US dollars just to levitate unknowingly everywhere a road can take me. Cars are easy to drive, but breaking away from using mobile-private-property automobiles is hard to get started on riding a bicycle fluently and be willing to die to stay on the bicycle and learn to survive properly in an environment that would run over squirrels. It’s not sad if you die from being killed by a monster-automobile, at least those dead squirrels didn’t die in vain. With the loss of one dead bicyclist as many as 200; maybe more; squirrel-souls stop playing in front of heavens gates and prance right through the bars, where they can get hefty and fat off of berries and milk they’ve never tried before.
This place looks amazing 😍
Mina love the gray tints😊
Thank you for sharing, Mina! You and Mommy Oh are beautiful inside and out :)

Now that was an amazing scrabble board. I wonder if the letters were bamboo-backed ivory like the Mah Jongg set I inherited.
I remember you making a YT short about Cedar + Elm, so this whole video was highly anticipated. Looking forward patiently for your Ladakh videos, much love to Miss Mina and Mommy Oh!
You've got a great memory! When I made the YT short at that time, I had no idea this collaboration was possible. Thrilled to learn and share details of this place! Thank you so much for your patience on the Ladakh video ❤ It'll be a time capsule video and reliving memories while editing it!
Greetings from Brazil, lovely channel!

Thank you so much for watching all these years and for enjoying the editing style! I'm thrilled to hear you've gained confidence to travel for there is so much beauty in the world, from food to culture to people to landscapes ❤
Nice monastery hotel but too isolated to my liking , it is an experience for sure why not 😆😱 if you need an escapade from a big city !!!
yay
Beautiful location, the food looks amazing… but the prices 😬
😍😍
That place gave me vibes of an old European institute; 0 coziness ( probably lacking textile !) and too much art out of place but the food ❤️🔥👌🏻🥳
I would LOVE to stay there. It's literally right across Lake Washington from my home, but so expensive. :(
❤
Bueno
Slay
I WANT TO STAY HERE
Your videos have always helped me through hard times cause i find calmness and peace in them.I remember i wated your 30-40mins vids when i had exams the next day before sleeping to calm myself down and feel more confident or when anything went wrong I'd come back to watch your vids to find happiness in hard times.Thank you for your hard work.
( ◜‿◝ )♡
Noma is closing.
Please please please tell me what do you do with the emty shells. As an artist i am really interested to know it
I'm curious what you mean when you say savory. It seems like you mean more than just not sweet?
Hello
🧐
BOY that woman can eat!
you mean "porridge"!
Those food and spa prices are outrageous. How does Mina eat so much and stay so thin?
Are those dishes $30 for such small amount
What is you job??? what you do?? how do you get this much money for travel the different country??
Como
Making hotelrooms with fridges should be illegal
Ever think of Bible inspired art like a Korean Noah's Ark; animals and water🎅🎬🦇☯☯☮☮🀄 ?
I don’t know why but I just don’t watch you a lot sorry😢
Where is the dance party ? Smh
