Anniversary Hill Inn

[Soaringeagle]

Does anyone know anything about the Old Anniversary Hill Inn in West Alton? In the early 1800's It belonged to a farmer whose name was Carpenter. I thing It was after the Lakeshore Railroad ceased.

the guest house never burned. The servants quarters burned around 2000. When and who divided the original large lot?. It was 4 acres. The railroad ran right through it about 200 feet from the lake.

It is still there but has been a private home for many years. I believe the inn used to own all the way down to the lake and that there were cabins. Now I think the inn is on a one acre lot. The cabin just below it that burned down was recently rebuilt.

The Inn Keepers house was just below the house and that burned. It was never rebuilt. What can you telll me about the anniversary Hill Inn after Carpenter when it was an Inn

When did the inn keepers house burn?
There is a cabin that was recently built that replaced a cabin that burned.
If they had 2 cabins burn at separate times I would say they have some bad luck.

Here’s a listing from two years ago for what’s described as the guest house of the Anniversary Inn.

My family owned the house from 1962-1966. It had the name Shangri-La on the front of the house.

Sammy are you talking about the Inn or guest House. The Inn was on #11 between Elm St. and Chestnut ST. Later changed to anniversary Hill

Yes the railroad was on what is now Railroad Ave, a town owned and maintained dirt road that runs out to Smith Point Rd. I believe there are a total of 4 properties below the inn and above Railroad Ave. I must be thinking of what you are calling the servants quarters that was recently rebuilt. So were there 2 buildings that burned down on the property? How long ago was it that the inn keepers cabin burned?
