Established by Zadok Pierce in 1875 as a hotel, grocery and feed store. It was sold in 1903 to the Reading Bros., of Bodie, who re-named it the W.E. Reading General Merchandise. Later on in 1945, Perry ^ Gerri Aikens acquired it and gave it its present name: The Heyday Inn. In 1980, W. Carlson & J. Ithurburu bought it from E. Groso, re-modeled the interior, leaving the exterior in its original condition. Re-opened for business in January 1983.
