Site of Winters' Hotel
The Winters' Hotel was the most ornate building in town. It was one of the earliest hotels here and the best known. A forty-niner later described it as "the hotel par excellence of the town; one could easily perceive that by its long white colonnade in front, and its too numerous windows in the upper story. A large saloon occupied the whole front of the building." In 1850 the Winters' was known as a gambling hotel, and later it became the stagecoach stop for the community. |
