Stay the Night
The Meeker Hotel, built in 1896, is a well-preserved, no-frills historic building with 14 rooms and a café that is open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Rumor has it the hotel is haunted by several friendly ghosts. An early guest of the hotel was avid hunter Teddy Roosevelt, who later became president. The walls of the lobby are covered in big game mounts and biographies and photos of local historic figures.
