History

Power's Mansion Inn was originally built in 1884 by Harold T. Power, for his family to call their new home. In 1912, he sold it to the Mackay family, who used it to house a successful medical practice for decades. After new additions were added to the manor in 1982, and being closed down in 2004, the new owner Alfred Lee began its careful restoration. By 2006, he and his family turned this historically-rich location into a one-of-a-kind setting for people to exchange their vows.
