Photo page – The Villa tour

The ghost lady in the window from above elicits a different emotion when pictured from the inside of the building, as seen below.

The second floor, housing the Villa’s hotel rooms.

 

 

 

 

 

The original ceiling of the restaurant portion of the building is still visible on the first floor.

 

 

 

 

An order was taken from a regular during normal business hours at the Bar and Grill on the first floor.

 

 

 

Owner Jackie Hamilton descends the creaky steps to the Villa’s basement.

 

 

 

 

Hamilton pointed out some writing on the wall of the basement from Nov. 19, 1980 supposedly describing rabbits.
