Historic Interest

Built in 1895 by the ice and lumber baron Albert Lewis. The area boasts of many architectural landmarks including Tiffany signature cemetary, the mansion with Tiffany transoms, handblown lead windows and is cradled in the majestic mountains. President Theodore Roosevelt was a guest of Albert Lewis and hence our Presidential Suite with original guestroom furniture similar to the Lincoln Suite at the White House.
