Circa 1892. Built in 1892, this graceful three-story Queen Anne Victorian with white picket fence and long green lawn attracts the attention of visitors to Grass Valley. The innkeepers have created Victorian style vignettes throughout the inn's five rooms and extend a warm welcome and genuine hospitality to their guests. Hearty breakfasts are offered and are sometimes accompanied by a magic trick or two performed by Peter, a member of the Magic Castle in Los Angeles. The inn is located above an old mining tunnel of the Empire Gold Company, according to the great grandson of Elam Biggs, Richard, who visits occasionally.
