Marial, Oregon

[edit]

Is Marial, Oregon considered a ghost town? There doesn't seem to be a permanent human settlement aside from the old Rogue River Ranch.

Quoting a brochure from the Bureau of Land Management on Rogue River Ranch: "The ranch structures remaining today represent the center of the old community of Marial. The ranch hosted a trading post with lodging in the second story, a blacksmith’s shop, and numerous outbuildings that served the early residents' social and commercial needs."[1] So most of the erstwhile structures appear to no longer exist. The nearby Marial Lodge has its owners as permanent residents.  --Lambiam 08:11, 25 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
