The Ellerbeck Mansion Bed & Breakfast

The Ellerbeck Mansion is a historic Victorian home nestled in the heart of the charming and historic Avenues District of downtown Salt Lake City. We are big enough to meet your business and travel needs, yet small enough to provide you with the intimate grace of Victorian times. Renovated and restored to its original charm, the Mansion boasts hardwood floors, original moldings and stained glass, and period theme decor.

The Ellerbeck Mansion is conveniently located at the corner of 3rd Avenue and B Street, in a quiet residential neighborhood just five blocks from the center of downtown Salt Lake City. Guests can walk to Historic Temple Square, the Church Office block, the new 21,000 seat Conference Center and downtown shopping. The mansion is a short 15 minute drive from the Salt Lake International Airport and just 30 minutes from a dozen famous ski resorts.

Old Deseret Village/This is the Place Monument

The Old Deseret Village re-creates the pioneering atmosphere of early Salt Lake City. Wander the dirt roads side-by-side with pioneer men and women, and watch out for the horse drawn wagons! This is the Place Monument, located near the Village, commemorates Brigham Young's famous words as he and his wagon train entered Salt Lake Valley for the first time, "This is the right place." The Mormon pioneers continued on from this spot and settled the Great Salt Lake valley.

The Great Salt Lake

The Great Salt Lake is the remains of pre-historic Lake Bonneville. One of the world's largest inland bodies of salt water, the Great Salt Lake is a beautiful place to swim, boat, or just enjoy the sunset. Antelope Island, accessible by car, is an animal preserve where you can enjoy antelopes and bisons in their natural habitat. Also located nearby are the famous Bonneville Salt Flats, well known among car racing aficionados.

Gardner's Historic Village

Originally a grain mill, Gardner's Historic Village is now a collection of historic homes converted into quaint shops. Wander through the "lanes" and pick up hand-made lace and quilts, original paintings, old fashioned candy, victorian reproductions, and other items. The shops surround the old mill which now serves as a restaurant. A museum explaining the history of the mill sits at the center of the village.

Park City: Historic Main Street

Park City is a historic town set in the heart of the mountains, only a thirty minute drive from down town Salt Lake. Wander the shops on historic main street, eat at the variety of restaurants, visit the factory outlet shops, ride the "Great Silver Mine Adventure", or visit the museum. If you miss the winter skiing, visit the Alpine Slides during the summer months.

Historic Homes Tour

If you enjoy historic architecture, be sure to visit the Utah Historic Society and pick up a copy of the self-guided walking tour. Tours vary in length, and take you through various time periods and architectural styles. This is a great way to get a flavor for the beauty of Salt Lake.

Shopping

Shopping is available at the Park City Outlet Mall and the VF Factory Outlet in Draper. Both are about a 30 minute drive from downtown Salt Lake. We can help you find your way! Two large retail malls are also located within walking distance of the Ellerbeck Mansion.
