Kettle Falls, WA :: Rochester Hotel
The lovely Hotel Rochester in old Kettle Falls, Washington, opened in 1891. The hotel was financed by a capitalist named W.B. Arisof Rochester, NY, who founded the Rochester and Kettle Falls Land Company. In 1919, the owner at the time, Henry Murno began dismantling the hotel, as it rarely found much success as a business.
