Description

Circa 1890. Recently restored, the Tallman Hotel was built in the 1890s and is now a simple yet sophisticated country boutique hotel with cottages and the Blue Wing Saloon and Café. The state-of-the-art eco-friendly environment was inspired by the surrounding setting of Lake County's Upper Lake in California, just 21/2 hours from San Francisco and Sacramento. The rustic chic interior boasts antiques and artwork depicting the local flora and fauna. Relax in the parlor, swim in the pool or soak in the hot tub. Accommodations in the historic main hotel or garden rooms feature an assortment of amenities that may include Eastlake-style furniture, clawfoot tubs, Moulton Brown bath products and patios or balconies. Enjoy a continental breakfast in the dining room with a hand-painted mural of local wildlife.

This property has been featured in Via Magazine (March 2006), Eco Structure Magazine (March 2006), San Francisco Chronicle (June 2006), LA Times (October 2006), Sunset (May & April 2007).

Location: Country.
