LODGINGS

Ben Maddox House / 2.5*

601 N ENCINA ST, VISALIA; 559/739-0721

Sleep inside a sequoia tree? Only in a sense: carpenters built Ben Maddox House in 1876 out of lumber cut from the "big tree" sequoia groves in the Sierra Nevada. Ben Maddox was part owner of the Mt. Whitney Power Co., which brought the first electricity to the Valley. He and other citizens also spearheaded efforts to preserve the redwoods, riding on horseback into the mountains with a delegation from Washington, D.C. Today this stately yellow Victorian with its white-columned portico and four guest bedrooms is a sweet reminder of his local contributions. Some guests prefer the spacious Ben Maddox bedroom with its large Italian marble bathroom. Others may choose the Rose Room for its floral motif and its more private location at the side of the house. In summer, a swimming pool offers a cool escape from valley heat. Another big attraction is owner Diane Muro's cooking. Unlike most B&B hosts, she lets guests choose from a full breakfast menu. Be sure to ask for her homemade jams—a bitter-cherry tree out front provides a mother lode of fruit each year. On warm mornings you can take breakfast outdoors on a deck. $; AE, DIS, MC, V; checks OK; www.benmaddox.com; 5 blocks north of
Main St at Race St.

The Spalding House Bed & Breakfast Inn / 2.5*

631 N ENCINA ST, VISALIA; 559/739-7877

Few houses in California boast a porch as grand as Spalding House's. The mansion's wide, low-roofed outdoor "room" sweeps down one side facing east (toward the snowcapped Sierra Nevada, visible on a clear day) and offers guests a seat in a Craftsman-style swing. A fine example of Colonial Revival style, built in 1901, Spalding House was a lumberman's dream home. The public rooms still give evidence of a gracious ease that once cosseted a prominent family. The three guest rooms are sedate and of the period: no wild wallpaper or "theme rooms" here. What you will find is accommodations tastefully decorated with antiques, white linens,
and gauzy curtains. One touch of whimsy is in the Aviary Room, where a beautiful little sitting porch has been fashioned from what once was a colorful tiled aviary. The Cutler Suite was once a sleeping porch, and the Spalding Suite has a large sitting area off the bedroom. Owners Wayne
and Peggy Davidson are gracious hosts, and Wayne cooks a great complimentary breakfast in the house's vast kitchen. $; AE, MC, V; checks OK; 6 blocks north of downtown at Grove.
