The inn reopened in 1996 following a community restoration effort and is a member of the National Trust's Historic Hotels of America. Today the inn hosts weddings, receptions, galas, conferences, and private celebrations across several event spaces, including a Grand Ballroom that can be divided into smaller salons, a Rooftop Terrace overlooking Main Street, an intimate Library for rehearsal dinners and showers, and a Boardroom suited to executive meetings.
