The Mount Washington Resort

This picture of the Mount Washington Resort Hotel was taken on Route 302 in Bretton Woods, New Hampshire.  The Mount Washington Hotel was constructed by a coal broker named Joseph Stickney from Waltham, Massachusetts who opened the Hotel in 1902.  The Stickney family owned the Hotel through 1942 when it was closed because of World War II.  The Hotel became a National Historic Landmark in 1986.  The Hotel is presently owned by the CNL Financial Group, of Orlando, Florida.  This is one beautiful Hotel, especially with the red roof.
