still hoping that one of these
days they'll get a chance to
hear about the new Bard's
Inn motel, now ncaring com
pletion on the old Presby
terian church property in
Ashland.
A program was scheduled
on the motel a couple of
months ago, but the builder
was detained by a rounda
bout set of circumstances, In
volving delay of a plane ar
rival, caused by bad weather.
Then for yesterday's meet
ing a program again had been
scheduled on the new motel,
but this time the owners had
to be In Portland and were
unable to attend.
Meanwhile, the handsome
new motel appears as if it

cepting reservations for ac
commodations during the
Shakespearean festival. But
now it looks as if the owners

Eagle Point The Little
Butte motel, built in 1942 to
answer the plea for housing
at the time Camp White was
being built, was sold recently
to Mr. and Mrs. Raymond
Stotler of White City.
The motel, located on the
corner of East Main and South
B sts., is being partially re
moved to make way for the
construction of two new
homes. .
The main home was orig-
glnally built by a Mrs. Gil
breath and is constructed on
unique pattern with rooms
having rounded corners. The
house, built of red tile, will
be remodeled and either sold
or leased bv the new owners.
The long row of cabins at
the southwest corner of the
property is presently being
emodcled into a modern
dwelling , while all of the
smaller cabins have been sold
and most of them removed.
Stollor said the cabins were
not modern and he wasn't In
terested in fixing them up
for rentals.
At a latter date he is con
sidering the possibility of put
ting In a new motel on the
south end of the property.
The wash house is being re
modeled for a shop.
The large corner lot locat
ed directly on Main and South
B sts. Is is being saved for
commercial use with the pos
sibility of an eating establish
ment with covered outdoor
eating facilities being erected.
Mrs. Gilbreath sold the
Little Butte motel to the
Church of the Golden Rule,
which used it for retreats
after the war. Church mem
bers used the main house for
dining and meeting rooms and
slept in the cabins. After
about 10 years they purchas
ed part of the Hanley ranch
in Lake Creek, and the motel
was sold to Mr. and Mrs.
Louis Culy who again rented
it out as a motel. j
The Culys owned the motel
for about 10 years, recently
building themselves a new
home in the Ruch area and
selling the property to the
Stotlers.
