Pendleton Underground Tours

Pendleton Underground Tours Review

This 90-minute tour transports you below ground and back through Pendleton's history of gambling, girls, and gold. Originating in 1989, the Underground Tours depict town life from more than a century ago (when 32 saloons and 18 brothels were operating in full swing) to the 1953 closure of the Cozy Rooms, the best-known bordello in town. The Underground Tour eventually resurfaces, climbing the "31 Steps to Heaven" to those Cozy Rooms, where madam Stella Darby reigned. The secret gambling lairs, opium dens, and bathhouses that lie directly below the pavement will give you a whole new perspective of the streets of Pendleton.
