The old Levitt House, built in 1877 by Sam Hopkins for Hiram L. Leavitt, later became the Bridgeport Hotel and then the Bridgeport Inn. In the Old West, weary travelers used this historic hotel as a stage and buggy stop to and from the Bodie gold mining town. Legend holds that Samuel Clemens was a guest there, and a bedroom was named the “Mark Twain Room.” Legend also holds that the hotel is haunted by the “white lady,” said to have been seen by various guests throughout the years.
