Grand Opening and House Tour of The Inn at Palmetto
An original home of the city of Keystone Heights has been renovated to become a historic inn and bed and breakfast. The Inn at Palmetto, located at 555 SE Palmetto Avenue, will open its doors to the general public for a Grand Opening and house tour on Saturday, March 11, 2023 from 1:00 – 4:00 p.m. The Inn was originally constructed in 1925 as a winter home for Leona Clark Caughey, one of several native Pennsylvanians, who traveled to Florida and settled in the lake region to escape the harsh Northeast winter weather.
Inside of The Inn at Palmetto, visitors will be treated to a piece of history infused with modern conveniences. Thoughtful restoration has been done of the original fireplace, original heart of pine wood floors, and exposed stair treads which bear the stamp of the Keystone Heights Lumber Company. Along with these historic elements, the Inn has been remodeled with a completely updated kitchen, beautiful and modern bathrooms, and a porch that beckons one to sit and swing and invite friends to meet them on the porch at The Inn at Palmetto.
