History

Russell Spencer Hines had this Victorian mansion constructed in 1895 with money acquired from his local mining, business and real estate ventures. The home is believed to have been designed by Utah architect Richard Karl August Kletting, who also designed the Utah State Capitol building. According to historic records, the Mansion was built as a showplace during Provo's recovery from a major boom-and-bust period in the area's early economic history. One of the first homes built by Provo's first generation gentry, the Hines Mansion is among Utah County's most historical residential landmarks.

The Utah Heritage Foundation presented an award of merit to Douglas K. Hardy for his renovation of the structure between 1975 and 1978. During that three year period the first level wings were added, and the cupola, a representation of the original, was rebuilt after being removed several years earlier.

In November 1995, Gene and Sandi Henderson purchased and remodeled the Mansion as a nine-bedroom bed and breakfast. Many of the new rooms have distinctive turn-of-the-century style.

Sandy and John Rowe acquired the property December 24th, 2002. The Rowe's, along with most of their extended family, then enjoyed a fabulous old-fashioned Christmas in the Mansion to christen their new venture. Assisted by their daughter, Megan, John and Sandy are continuing the Mansion's tradition of quality service and great hospitality.

After a 100-plus year history as one of Provo's most luxurious homes, an apartment house, various restaurants, an antique boutique, and various other uses, the Mansion continues to be a vital part of the unique heritage of downtown Provo.
