Overnight stays are expected to begin in June
After years of planning and labor, the Worthington Mansion volunteers will celebrate the grand opening of the restored building, the newest old hotel on the North Olympic Peninsula.
Various ribbon-cutting celebrations take place over the weekend of May 20-22 at the mansion in Worthington Park, 151 W. Columbia St., in Quilcene.
“All of the volunteers who have ever worked on the project and the donors also are invited,”
said Brian Cullin, communications director for the Quilcene Historical Museum, which owns the mansion
The $1.6 million restoration of the 13-room structure took more than 43,000 volunteer hours. Funds were fairly evenly divided between private donors from fundraising efforts and funds from agencies, Cullin said.
“We’ve always operated in the black,” he said.
Once it is opened for overnight stays, the full facility will be booked for between $375 and $500 a night. The 13 rooms include four bedrooms — the place can sleep eight people — and two baths. It is ADA-accessible. Proceeds will benefit the museum.
