The China Clipper Inn was built from the ground up in the 1990s and opened in 1995 by Earl Yarbrough, a Navy Commander, and keen nautical enthusiast. The majority of the units honor notable Clipper ships with marine names. Yarbrough also wanted to preserve the town’s traditional Victorian aesthetic.

3-Star Amenities
