If you’re looking for a romantic getaway, you’ll want somewhere with all the comforts and amenities, and an interesting history wouldn’t hurt either. Seven Wives Inn in Saint George is just the place – it consists of two homes, plus a little cottage. The rooms are quaint and comfortable, the breakfast is delicious, but best of all? It has an intriguing, polygamist history! Check it out!
The Woolley-Foster House is the main part of the inn.
Ronald G./TripAdvisor It was built in 1873 by Edwin G. Woolley, a local judge. When it was completed, it was the largest home in Saint George. When polygamy became illegal in 1882, Woolley hid his polygamist relative, Benjamin Johnson, in the attic. Johnson had seven wives, which is how the Inn got its name.
The home next door is also part of the inn. It’s called The President’s House.
