A Holiday Open House at the Red Brick Inn of Mountain Lake, a gorgeous Victorian-style home built in the late 1800s, located at 1301 3rd Avenue, was held this afternoon (Tuesday, December 6).
Guests were able to savor favorite Christmas treats, listen to live music, soak up the atmosphere of the holiday season in the historical setting and immerse themselves in plenty of Mountain Lake memorabilia.
Experience the Red Brick Inn during holiday season through the photographs below:
NORMA KURTZWEG OF St. James was on hand to provide a variety of music for Red Brick Inn visitors on her button accordion – from Christmas selections to waltzes – as well as celebrate her German heritage.
EVERGEEN AND GIANT pine cones help punctuate this holiday decor setting.
THIS ANIMATED SMALL Santa brightens the dining room with his Christmas candle.
A NATIVITY SCENE, handed down through the generations, is the center of attention in the front room of the inn.
ANOTHER PHOTO FROM the front room; one that displays the character of the inn.
THE RED POINSETTIA positioned at the upstairs landing is reflected in the mirror on the wall.
A LOOK FROM the front room through the doorway to the dining room captures guests gathered around the table in holiday fellowship.
ONE OF THE many Mountain Lake memorabilia items on display in every nook-and-cranny – and wall space – of the inn is this The Mountain Lake Observer from February 1948. Buzz Hotzler is deep in concentration reading about that year’s Mountain Lake High School Lakers boys basketball team – and their third straight Region 2 title.
