“This little place was so charming! We absolutely loved it. It was perfect for a quick trip to Ashland for the Ashland Mountain Challenge enduro mountain bike race. Great location. We didn’t have to use the car at all once we got there! It was beautifully decorated, clean, quiet and very relaxing.”
This suite is perfect for a couple. You can also book our other Matriarch Suites at the same time to give everyone their own space for a large family getaway, reunion, or wedding.

THE SPACE
The Martriarch is located in the historic John and Charlotte Pelton House built in 1894. By its size and distinction as an example of Eastlake architecture, the house is regarded as a pivotal building in the Railroad Historic District of Ashland, and is on the National Registry of Historic Places.
So why call it The Matriarch? We chose to honor Charlotte who lived in the house until she passed in 1926, as well as the other women who have cared for this beautiful home over the decades.
The property is also home to two additional suites and a main house that can be rented at the same time for larger group gatherings.
