Hollister Mansion
The property was in disrepair. There were broken windows. Many windows had flimsy paper blinds. The closets and benches were full of junk. The rugs were heavily soiled. A stair handrail was partially pulled from the wall. We found a dead mouse in a mouse trap. The main stairs still had carpet tacks present from carpeting that had been removed. Some of the light fixtures were not secure to the ceiling.

Great Location
Wonderful location to use as a base camp for nearby activities. Easy walking distance to restaurants and bars down on main street. The porch area in back of the house, complete with a grill - is a great place to spend an evening!

Beautiful Victorian home
We held our wedding in the Hollister mansion home and reception in a beautiful English garden style tent in the backyard. The house was great for pictures and served as the perfect backdrop. We love how everything turned out! The owners were also very responsive to our needs through out the entire week.

Great place for family gatherings. We were very pleased with the property and owners service.
Home was nicely decorated for Christmas for our 18 member family. Space was very adequate for all. Extensive use of kitchen went well. Gathering spaces were also very adequate for our family Christmas celebration. We were very satisfied with owners response to requests and questions we had pertaining to accommodations and kitchen supplies.

Fun at the Mansion!
We stayed two nights at the Hollister Mansion with 6 couples on a motorcycle trip weekend. The owners were very responsive and wonderful to work with. Staying in the house was like going back in time and we loved the vintage historical feel. The amenities offered were very adequate; kitchen was well equipped, beds comfortable, plenty of towels for everyone. Two showers available in the house and there was enough hot water for us all to get through each morning without anyone ending up with a cold shower. No one in our group has any real musical talent but it was fun to play piano, guitar and percussion in the music room like they would have in the old days to entertain ourselves (and believe me- we are entertaining!) The selection of books in the library is great; we glanced thru a few of the books on local history. We also enjoyed our time there hanging outside on the back porch. It was a two block walk down the hill to find a great coffee shop, restaurants and shops. Overall, very nice place to stay with a group if you are looking for something different and unique.
