What Is Laurium Manor?
Today, the former home of Thomas and Cornelia Hoatson is the Laurium Manor Inn!
What Makes It Historical?
Thomas Hoatson, Jr. was the son of the Calumet and Hecla Mining Company’s superindentent, which gave him a personal connection to Houghton County, even as his interests stretched across the country. Co-owner of the Calumet & Arizona Mining Company, “Captain Tom” used funds from his many mining, railroad, and banking companies, to hire architects, Charles and Fred Maass, to build this 45-room, 13,000 square foot mansion for his wife, Cornelia, and their six kids, in 1908!
