Experience elegant accommodations in this beautifully restored Queen Anne, Victorian mansion. The home was built in 1892 by the local lumber baron, W.C. Ellis. To highlight the unique architecture, seven colors were chosen to detail this beautiful "Painted Lady". Inside you will find seven fireplaces each with ornate wood & tiled mantles. Walk through pocket doors into rooms with ten foot ceilings and parquet floors. Behold vibrant fall colors through stained glass windows. Ascending the beautiful open staircase from the oak paneled Great Hall, is only a sampling of the six species of woodwork through out the home.

A warm, friendly environment. We attended a murder mystery dinner a couple of years ago and had a fabulous time! Well worth the time and money. Would be a fantastic company party or family event.
