The Lasker History

HISTORICAL BEAUTY AND GLORY

What began as a beautiful home built by Mr. McLemore Circa 1870 progressed to become a Home for Homeless Children after the Great 1900 Storm when Morris Lasker donated the home for that purpose.  Children roamed the halls from 1900-1990.  The home then became home to Heritage Christian academy and later an elegant event venue.  

 

The Lasker sat vacant for 4 years after Hurricane Ike until Richard and Linda Denson purchased the home and underwent renovations to restore it back to it's beauty and glory and on to share it with others as a Bed & Breakfast and event venue. The Lasker Inn is listed on the historic registry of homes.
