Our Story
The journey began with a family dream and a lot of hard work. Growing up in a small-town motel, the owners learned early what true hospitality meant—working with heart, showing up every day, and treating each guest like family.
After years in a corporate career, that passion for real hospitality came calling again. In 2019, Hotel Pommier in Indianola was reborn through extensive renovations. With the support of family and community, it quickly became a proud local landmark.
In 2025, the vision expanded to Chariton, bringing a fresh, locally inspired hotel experience to another deserving town. And this is just the beginning, the mission is to revive overlooked towns by transforming old hotels into vibrant, community-driven hubs.
