Pearson General Merchandise store in Los Alamos. There are two other well-appointed full-kitchen residences. They can be rented together or separately. Magnolia, Olive and Jasmine are named after plantings in the beautifully landscaped courtyard.

Built in 1886, Los Alamos resident Charles Pearson established C.H. Pearson general merchandise store, which remained in operation until 1942. He sold a wide variety of goods including boots, shoes, caps, eggs, confectionery, tobacco, hardware supplies, liquor, to name but a few. The building remains intact with the original wood structure. The front of the building houses the highly regarded Clementine Carter wine tasting room, while the rest of the building has been carefully renovated with an eye to preserve its historic integrity.

Enjoy a glass of wine in the large, inviting garden anchored by majestic olive trees, or a meal with friends at the long table handmade with the old original wood from the building, all the while enveloped by the shade of the olive trees.

Explore everything the historic western town of Los Alamos has to offer! The perfect location, right in the center of town, across the street from the Michelin starred Bell’s restaurant, and an easy walk to all the shops, wine tasting rooms, eateries, and a quick drive to surrounding vineyards and neighboring towns.

We needed a place to stay to attend a wedding. Traveling with two daughters required us to find a place with more than one bathroom and separate rooms. This place was perfect, it was within 100 feet of the venue and allowed us to come and go as we pleased. It was clean, comfortable and provided everything we needed.

Absolutely beautiful, comfortable, charming space in which to unwind. Clean as a whistle. We loved being next door to Clementine Carter Wines, as well. Our favorite stay along the California coast.
