Established by Zodak Pierce in 1875 as a hotel, grocery and feed store, Pierce Station was sold in 1903 to the Reading Bros. of Bodie, who renamed it the W.E. Reading General Merchandise. Later, in 1945, Perry and Gerri Aikens acquired it and gave it its present name, The Heyday Inn. In 1980, W. Carleson and J. Ithurburu bought it from E. Grosso, remodeled the interior while leaving the exterior in its original condition, and reopened for business in January 1983.
