Plant, Building, Window, Tree

The hotel, which is located a block from the Stone County Courthouse, was built by a man named John W. Webb during a time when the city saw increasing development and activity during the early 20th century. Webb saw an opportunity to provide a place to stay for people coming to Mountain View and decided to build the hotel. Other interesting features of the building include a porch supported by squared wood columns, and a decorative, curved bargeboard under the porch roof. The rest of the building is relatively simple in appearance. The hotel was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.
