HISTORY OF THE MCKENZIE GUEST HOME:
The main building, standing tall as the original two-story hotel, once provided respite to stagecoach travelers and offered lodging and meals for the modest sum of 25 cents.
In the early 1980s, the esteemed Brown family acquired this storied abode, transforming the 13-room, 2-bath haven into a five-unit apartment building. Fast forward to 2002, the property blossomed into the renowned Wallace Guest House Bed and Breakfast, known for its warm hospitality and timeless allure.
In 2018, the McCormack family of Austin, Texas, seized the opportunity to become stewards of this historical gem. With almost a century of tales woven into its walls, the McKenzie Guest House stands today as a haven of comfort and nostalgia, inviting you to create your own memories within its storied embrace.
