History

Established in 1997.

The 8,500 square foot antebellum mansion was built originally in 1854 as a private residence for a weathy shipbuilder. It was a hospital during the Civil War, and later broken down into small apartments. The building burned in 1992 and remained dormant until the current owners purchased the property in 1995. They spent two years restoring the property and have been AAA Four Diamond for 12 years as well as a member of the prestigious Select Registry for 12 years. Each room is a corner room with private bathrooms with marble floors and vanities. We have thin screen tv’s in each of the rooms and secured wifi. Complimentary beverages are available at all times, and complimentary wine is served starting at 5 p.m.
