The Historic Mining District,  just minutes from Quigley Cottage,  is a great fall travel experience.  The foliage is turning the vibrant colors of fall and the paths and trails are waiting for visitors .  Exploring the rich past of the largest silver deposit in the  United States is one of the best reasons to make that trip on Scenic Highway 1 to Philipsburg.  The Granite County Museum and Cultural Center is a treasure trove of information about Granite and the other ghost towns just minutes from our front door.  Pack a lunch and make a day of it.  Guided tours can be arranged at Quigley Cottage.
