Description: Known as the Old Homestead, the original structure of Mirabelle at Three Village Inn was built in 1751 by Richard Hallock. In about 1835 Jonas Smith, one of the country’s most prominent ship owners, purchased Hallock Homestead for use as a summer house. After his death in 1867 the house had a series of owners until 1929 when Mrs. Frank Melville purchased and renovated it for use as a Women’s Exchange. As people visited the area, she started serving tea, sandwiches, and refreshments. What began as a simple tea room in the 1930’s became in 1939 a large restaurant with rooms to accommodate overnight guests. A fine country inn was born, the Three Village Inn. In January, 2006, Lessings, Inc. took over the Inn, and Dan and Merri Laffitte became the fourth Innkeepers in the history of the Inn. In 2009 Guy and Maria Reuge joined our team and we became Mirabelle at Three Village Inn. Today, the Inn is open year round, serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner and a Sunday brunch. We are available for private functions, both business and pleasure, for groups from 10 to 200 people.
