Over the years, it served as a carriage stop, a hotel, a bar, a restaurant and a school, among other uses. It currently hosts an eponymously named [[Western saloon|saloon]] as well as a pizzeria. It was designated in 1961 as the "oldest commercial building" by the Lake County Historical Society and the Kelseyville Womens Club. === Gas Hill === Nowadays only marked by a sign atop a knoll along the southern stretch of Main Street, Gas Hill was the site of a [[natural gas]] pocket accidentally discovered in 1868 when digging a well. A match thrown into the hole triggered an explosion. Over the following decades, several successive owners attempted to commercialize the resource, but none succeeded.<ref>{{citation|title=Mauldin Files|first=Henry|last=Mauldin|volume=44|page=8633-8634|url=https://museumsoflakeca.wixsite.com/website/mauldin-files}}</ref>
