Historic Lodging in Southeast Washington
- Southeastern Washington is full of history, and it is home to many wonderful historic homes and commercial buildings. The region is also full of people who care deeply about that history and who have lovingly restored many of those homes and buildings back to their former glory, and opened them up for guests to share.
In this month's feature articles, we share with you five historic hotels and bed & breakfast establishments in Dayton, Waitsburg and Starbuck. We briefly tell their stories and the stories of those who have brought them back to life. - Victorian Lodging at its Finest: The Weinhard Hotel By Ken Graham
