Come visit the 1876 Heritage Inn

In 1882, the hotel was the sight of two days of negotiations concerning the city incorporation.

In 1886, owner of the hotel, Hugh DeYarman, serves as the fourth mayor of Orange City, serving a term of six years. Only five other mayors served terms as long or longer. Mr. DeYarman also served as postmaster of Orange City from 1889 to 1893.

Sometime during the early 1900’s, two additional wings were added to the west and east sides. The west wing addition added 10 hotels rooms, five upstairs and five with a shared bathroom between two rooms.

The East wing added a dining room and kitchen on the first floor and 8 rooms on the upstairs.
