The benefit of local travel is to see places throughout California that are threatened or saved. An earlier posting from McCloud discussed the threats facing the McCloud Hospital, but today is a happy story of a place saved. The 1897 McCloud River Mercantile Hotel has been diligently restored by its owners and includes two cafes, candy shop, and retail spaces including the Mercantile itself. McCloud was a company logging town, but today it has become a destination at the base of Mt. Shasta. The McCloud River Mercantile Hotel is listed with the state office of historic preservation as a historic resource.
