About Sheps Miners Inn

Sheps Miners Inn is an old and historic motel. Built in the mid 1800s it was originally a stage coach repair and rest stop. Later, the Inn became living quarters for miners and their families. You’ll love our Inn because of the coziness, the views, the people, and the location. Come visit us to unplug and relax! We are located just 66 miles from the Grand Canyon West Skywalk! This historic adobe inn is constructed with sand and mud from the local dry stream beds and the walls are 12 inch solid block. In the late 1800s this inn was initially built for the passengers on the Butterfield Stage Line to rest their weary bodies after the grueling journey through the desert. As the stage coaches gave way to the railroad, the rooms were converted to lodging for the miners and their families. When horseless carriages overtook the railroads for travel, the adobe building was extended to become an early motor court on the main highway through Chloride, which today is 2nd street.
