Wolfeboro Historical Society Photograph Archive Hotels and Resorts

An artist's sketch of the Glendon House was made into an engraving for advertising. It was used in The Switzerland of America tourist guide in 1879. The park-like setting was rather fanciful, as other commercial buildings were actually in the foreground. Built as the Glendon House in 1872, this impressive 4-story hotel with a mansard roof was in the center of downtown. Later, it was the Wolfeboro Hotel, New Wolfeboro Hotel, Hobbs-Is-Inn and Hotel Elmwood. It was razed in 1935 to build the present Wolfeboro Post Office.
