Waarom mensen ervan houden
- Authentic 1893 history you can actually feel
- No TVs in rooms forces a digital detox
- The massive, wrap-around porch with rocking chairs
Snel Overzicht: A legitimate time capsule that trades modern conveniences like TVs and silence for creaky floors and cowboy ghosts.
Beoordeeld door @Illflyyoujump: I spent the weekend soaking up the history here and it was incredible. From the live music in the lounge to the massive steak dinner, everything felt so authentic. Waking up to those mountain views was just the cherry on top. A true gem for history lovers.

Reality check
The 'continental' breakfast is often just pastries and yogurt, not the hot cowboy feast you might expect.
- You are a history buff or Buffalo Bill fan
- You want to disconnect from screens
- You appreciate creaky floors and antique furniture
Schoonmaak & Onderhoud
8.5
- Housekeeping: Generally excellent. Daily service is thorough, though dust can settle quickly in such an old building.
- Bathroom hygiene: Bathrooms are renovated and clean, with tile work in good condition. No mold reports found.
- Maintenance: Well-maintained for its age, though creaky floors and stiff doors are part of the package.
- Linens & towels: Fresh and standard quality. No luxury thread counts, but clean and crisp.
- Odors & scents: Mostly neutral to fresh, with a faint 'old wood' smell that adds to the charm rather than detracting.

Veelgestelde vragen & Verborgen tips
Alles wat je eigenlijk wilt weten voordat je boekt.
Is there really no TV?
Correct. None of the 22 rooms have televisions. It's a deliberate choice to preserve the 1893 atmosphere.
Is the hotel haunted?
Locals say yes. Miss Kate Arnold, a long-time employee, is said to watch over the inn, particularly near her former room (now part of the 3rd-floor hallway).
How bad is the train noise?
It varies. Some guests sleep through it, others find the rumble and horn disruptive. It's a fact of life at this location.
Is breakfast included?
Yes, a continental breakfast is included, but expect pastries, fruit, and yogurt rather than a hot buffet.
Are pets allowed?
Yes, but only in specific rooms and with a fee ($50 deposit). You MUST call ahead to ensure a pet room is available.
Is there air conditioning?
Yes, the hotel has been retrofitted with A/C, so you won't swelter in the summer.
Tips van Insiders
- ✨
Ask the front desk for the key to the 3rd-floor ballroom if it's not in use; it's a stunning space to see.
- ✨
The 'Buffalo Bill Bar' inside has the original cherrywood bar gifted by Queen Victoria.
- ✨
Room 306 is the 'haunted' spot (Miss Kate's room), though it's been remodeled.

💡The 'shower' in many rooms is just a handheld sprayer in a tub—you have to sit or kneel to use it.
💡The Wi-Fi is surprisingly fast for a place with no TVs.
💡You can hear your neighbors walking above you due to the historic wood construction.
💡The lobby fireplace is a prime spot for evening reading since you can't watch Netflix in bed.
