1of5 Level 8 Jan 4, 2020

Its online [theoldwhiskeymill.com]

@Burner well so much for striking up a conversation πŸ˜‰

Sorry I missed this one. They have an excellent menu. PT may not be Seattle, but we've got a few good places for eats.

@1of5 people who ask questions that are easy to answer on google, are a pet peeve

@Burner unfortunatly his opinion of the menu isn't online.

No one goes to Pt Townsend by their own free will. Is that "haunted" hotel still open?
We should assemble a squad of skeptics to go tour it.

History
The castle was built in 1892 as the home of Charles Eisenbeis and his wife Kate. Mr. Eisenbeis was a prominent member of the Port Townsend business community. He had various business endeavours which included a bank, hotel, brewery, bakery, lumber works and brick works. Eisenbeis was elected as the town’s first mayor. Manresa Castle was the largest residence in Port Townsend during that time. It had 30 rooms and was called the Eisenbeis Castle. German artisans installed finely crafted woodwork and tiled fireplaces. When Charles died in 1902, Kate remarried and the house was left abandoned.

In 1925 an attorney bought the property and made it a vacation house for nuns who are teaching students in Seattle. However, this did not work out quite well and the castle became a training college for Jesuits. In 1968, the castle was converted into a hotel and was renamed the Manresa Castle.

Yeah, Manresa is still open. It's a popular bed and breakfast. The Ghost Adventures guys went there. And it was featured on the show My Ghost Experience.
