Hotel Millersburg

 photo tour:

I liked these doors. The hotel, built in 1847, was a stagecoach stop in its early days.

This is the rear entrance, which takes you in through the tavern.

You can't see it under the spider webbing stuff, but there is a cast bronze sculpture as a finial on the balustrade.

By the elevator on the second floor. Antiques and vintage furniture and art are everywhere in this hotel.

In the downstairs hall is a large portrait of Grover Cleveland, our 22nd and 24th President, who stayed at the hotel overnight in 1900. The hotel registration,which hangs beside the portrait shows his signature and that he stayed in room No. 6.

There is an outside courtyard attached to the tavern. We went out there for a bit in the evening. A nice space, and it has this small performance stage where they sometimes host live music. No such luck when we were there though.

Our room was huge! Two double beds, a table in the center, loveseat, beautiful bathroom, and best of all a fantastic view of the courthouse and the main street. It was noisy, at least for us country pumpkins, but I knew that would be the case if we stayed in town, and I didn't mind. Being right in the center of town is a complete change from our usual quiet nights!

More tomorrow.
