Treat
yourself to Victorian elegance in the midst of the Napa Valley's
world famous wine growing region. Among the vineyards and neighbors
to some of the finest wineries and restaurants, a stay at the
Ink House is a nostalgic return to an era long past with all
the conveniences of modern comfort. Built in 1884, by Theron
H. Ink, this grand and historic landmark home is listed on the
National Register of Historic Places. Here at his "Helios
Ranch", Ink, a true pioneer, lived with his wife and children
and presided over many Napa Valley ventures. This Italianate
Victorian style home offers two first floor parlors, with concert
grand piano, fireplace, circa 1870 pump organ, crystal chandeliers
and original stained glass. Our guest bedrooms are situated on
the second floor, each room offering a distinctive view of the
vineyards, Victorian gardens and trees that were here long before
the house was even built. A small parlor is also located on this
floor. Each room has a queen sized bed,and bath, and are decorated
in period French, English, American, Georgian, Eastlake and Italian
antiques and family heirlooms. Rooms are centrally air conditioned
and heated for your comfort. The rooms differ in size and amenities
which are reflected in their rates. Throughout the house, you
will find a collection of distinctive original art. The house
is full of wonderful antiques, collectibles and heirloom pieces
that the Innkeepers hope all will enjoy. This is a home to be
lived in, so each guest is encouraged to be comfortable and enjoy
all the house has to offer.
