The mansion is located walking distance from town. It has been very well restored and has many period pieces and decor. My wife and I have stayed in many places like this but I have to say...this place has something special. That is mostly due to Connie the owner. As soon as you book the reservation you get a huge email laying out what to expect at the mansion including directions and what to expect. The email then goes in and tells about the town and its MANY attractions and history and how to contact those business. Once we arrived, a note in the door said to "call Connie once you arrive and are ready to check in...LOL'! We thought this was great and gave it a very "homey" atmosphere. Connie also owns a bar/saloon in town called The Silver Queen, which has been featured on Ghost Adventures and is worth a trip there in its own merit and that is where she was when we arrived. She basically said...walk in the side door, go straight ahead and turn right and the door to your room is right there with the key in it. Let me know if you need anything else...LOL. We thought that was just the best! The rooms were very clean and comfortable and had AC, TV, Keurig coffee maker, private bath, and ours had a patio outside. We took a self guided tour around the house, as no one was there, and fell in love with the place. The big thing that sets it apart from any other place that we have been is the fact that the owner, Connie, is the one who literally cook you a three course gourmet breakfast every morning! Her meals were spectacular and the hospitality and conversation was amazing. She has lived they for 61 years and could answer pretty much and question you had and had a hilarious and interesting story to tell about whatever you wanted to know I was well! We met some great couples at breakfast and we are SURE to be back in the future. This mansion and the city, which exceeded all expectations as well, will definitely in regular rotation on our many adventures every year. You will NOT be disappointed when you stay here!

Our Host, Connie, was a native of Virginia City and a wealth of history and lore. The night was already made special at the Piper Opera House with a one-man show with McAvoy Lane as Mark Twain. In an unexpected turn of events, this Ghost of Mark Twain" was also a guest at the Cobb Mansion. We were treated to late-night shenanigans with an assortment of Bohemian guests who made our heads spin with delight. The atmosphere of the 1876 mansion, and being engulfed by the antiques in every room, made us treasure our stay even more. The Hop Sing room was a comfortable delight, and we can't wait to book a return stay -- it was Heaven for this writer and his Lovely Bride. Special Thanks, Connie!

Self check in with code at the doors to rooms make it easy. 10/10 recommend. Not a lot of snow right now but we will definitely be back with the family again next time we have a lot of snow. Possibly may even come back during summer to enjoy the lake. Price is reasonable, definitely worth every penny.

This place is located on a very busy street so you will be hearing cars all night long. The room has no air conditioning and it gets stuffy . We had to open the front door to get some fresh air. Our room was the Dream Catcher has a lot of windows with no blockout curtains so we had light in the room all night long and it was difficult to have a restful night. The worse part of our stay was that we had reserved the room for five days but we had an emergency that required us to leave two days earlier. We gave them 72 hours notice. The owner didn't even want to return our calls. My husband had to make several visits to the front office the front desk clerk Austin told us the owner is busy and doesn't need to call anyone. By chance my husband ran into her on the last morning when he dropped off the room key. We spoke with her for 10 mins and even asked her to split the difference and give us one night refund instead of the two but she refused. What a nightmare! It is a rip off ! I will NOT recommend this place to family and friends.

A very nicely appointed room on the top floor facing east. Great views, nice bed, nice linens, big bathroom, tiny TV - but you don't need that here. Reasonably priced all things considered. If you want to eat next door at the Cider Factory you might consider a reservation. The town empties out about 5pm and most places are closed. The restaurant booked out that night so we headed on to the Cafe Del Rio - also a great place to eat. There is a small bar in the Cider Factory with a very nice beer selection. We got a couple drinks and sat on the porch for a bit. I would not hesitate to stay here again!

A pair of quail were exploring the property during our stay. There are also courtyards between each of the houses where you can sit in the shade and unwind with a book or just bask with nature. We stayed in the Silver Street House, built at the turn of the century. It contains four rooms named after the four Irish miners who became known as the Silver Kings of the Comstock. Our room, William O'Brien, had the famous "One Hundred Mile View" down 6-Mile Canyon to Carson Plains and beyond. The room was equipped with a queen bed, old fashioned make-up table (I used it as a makeshift desk for my laptop), ceiling fan, window air conditioning unit, full bathroom, and small flat screen TV. As the morning sun broke through from the east, a quiet and beautiful day was just about to start. After a restful sleep, I wrestled with my mind to get up. Up on B Street, the town was so quiet and serene with a beautiful view of the valley and surrounding mountains. A lizard greeted us at the front of the Silver Street House while he was basking in the morning rays. I think he wanted us to take a picture as he posed for the camera. Edith Palmer's Country Inn provides a home-cooked breakfast to order. Breakfast is served in the Cider Factory which was originally established in 1863. There is seating inside and outside in the courtyard. It was such a cool and beautiful morning, we decided to enjoy our breakfast outside under the shade of a tree. A plated breakfast of pancakes topped with chunky raspberry syrup and whipped cream, bacon, and scrambled eggs were served along with coffee and choice of juice. The pancakes were fluffy and tasted like homemade. The syrup and whipped cream gave it a slight sweetness. The bacon was perfectly cooked with a smoky, salty flavor. The scrambled eggs were a bright yellow and fluffy.
