Stagecoach Inn and Restaurant

Nestled along the Chisholm Trail, the Stagecoach Inn welcomed its first travelers as Salado House Hotel, then later as Shady Villa Hotel. Its storied halls bore witness to the comings and goings of legends like Sam Houston, Robert E. Lee, and the notorious Jesse James. Serving as a vital stop for stagecoaches, it became more than just a resting place; it became a piece of Texas history, being added as a Texas Historical Landmark in 1962. In 2024, The Stagecoach Inn & Restaurant returned to its original namesake, welcoming travelers and locals alike.
