In 1884 Nathaniel G. Palmer built his spacious home around the site of a smaller home believed to be the residence of his father. His unique, Greek-Revival home, overlooking Crystal Lake and Eaton’s "Little White Church", was documented in the North Country Council’s Historic Buildings Inventory.
Nathaniel soon began taking in travelers, as well as the many visitors that came to spend their summers enjoying the mountains and lakes – his house became known as The Palmer House. After Nathaniel’s death in 1899, his wife, Mary, continued to take in guests and their son, Frank continued this until the 1940’s. In the late 1940’s, The Palmer House was purchased by the Buckelew family who started Camp Star Acres. It was later turned into a co-ed boarding school and was incorporated as The Palmer House School in 1961. The school closed in 1974. In 1976 the original building was purchased by Frank and Mary Gospodarek who converted it back to an inn and called it The Palmer House Inn. In 1986, the inn once again changed hands and was purchased by Walter and Jacqueline Spink, who renamed it the Inn at Crystal Lake. Recommended lodging by "New Hampshire Off the Beaten Path", this award-winning New England property is located at the historic 1884 Palmer House just minutes from North Conway in the tranquility of romantic Eaton Village - the White Mountain's hidden treasure.
