A Greek Revival-style mansion now open to the public, the Chatillon-DeMenil house dates to 1849, when the first portion was built for Henri Chatillon, a hunter and guide with Francis Parkman's Oregon Trail expedition. Sold to the DeMenil family a few years later, it was soon enlarged and transformed into the current Greek Revival form.

Thank you for joining us! We hope you have the chance to come back and visit soon.
We had our wedding here in May of 2016, and it was BEAUTIFUL! I loved having the freedom to decorate how we wished. I loved the freedom to choose a caterer of our choice. I loved how relaxed and informal it was, and how lovely at the same time. The team was very informative and kind and they really made us feel welcomed. I recommend them every chance i get. I had the best day and I wish I could relive it over and over! �

Our check was cashed, and a couple weeks later we received an email from Curtis informing us they can no longer uphold our reservation for our reception due to renovations and changes to the property that will be going on at that time.

If renovations were being planned for nearly seven months down the road, I don't understand why we were not informed that the ... read more
I’m a history buff/nerd and the Victorian era is my top favorite periods! I highly recommend going! I learned so much more from our tour guide, he was very knowledgeable on the House and the era!
