About the Inn
When you first step into the lobby of the Myers Inn, you're struck by "something"--a feeling--you can't quite put your finger on.
The decor is a part of it, certainly. Your mind quickly takes in the rich heritage of family heirlooms, antique dolls, turn-of-the-century photographs, along with the fireplace, the meticulous woodwork and the wall decorations. But it's more than just the assemblage of collectibles that you're sensing. There's a warm and inviting feeling to the place, with subdued lighting and a crackling fire in the fireplace, much as it must have been a century ago.
In the earlier, more "proper" days, there were two lobbies here--one for the ladies and one for the gentlemen. Today, you'll want to sit together with your sweetheart, hold hands, and think about the little girls who once played with the dolls, the music that played over the windup Victrola, and what it must have been like that moment in 1900, over 100 years ago, when Ulysses S. Grant Myers and his bride, the new Mrs. Mattie Myers, sat perfectly still, waiting for the flash to go off and make the very wedding portrait we see today.
For modern-day guests, the Inn has been subtly transformed into a lovely ten-room B&B Inn, complete with all the modern comforts, including private baths, heating and air conditioning, large flat screen TVs, and even Wi-Fi. All this with a delicious breakfast in the morning. The Myers Inn. Your home away from home!
