Equinox House Legacy Tied to Lincoln Visit and Manchester History

The Equinox House in Manchester Vermont, a landmark since 1853, rose to prominence after Mrs. Lincoln and 20 year old Robert stayed there in 1863. It became a social center for wealth and fashion as Lincoln’s circle returned for summers and golf, while nearby Dr Sprague and Franklin Orvis shaped its medical and bottling past. The property later hosted an airfield opened 1928 and expanded through 1949, adapting through Prohibition era publicity and changes in ownership, yet preserving its famed hospitality tied to Lincoln years.
