The former Green Book lodging for Black travelers reopened in January 2022 after restoration.
Magnolia House was built in 1889 and became a bed and breakfast for traveling African Americans when Arthur and Louise Gist bought it in 1949. The business closed in 1980 after Arthur Gist died. Following restoration the house reopened as a boutique hotel in January 2022.
