The White Pillars - Historic Masterpiece

Welcome to The White Pillars! Where Luxury Meets Casual


This turn of the century palatial colony style mansion has a rich history. On September 18, 1903, Mr. Walter A. Graham (1870-1925), a successful banker in Clarion for many years, married Katherine Ormston (1880-1953). Soon after they built the palatial home at the corner of Seventh and Main and moved in on February 7, 1906.
After his death, Katherine was left to raise their 8 children on her own. After her death, her daughter Ruth and her family lived in the White Pillars awhile longer.
There were several more renters and in 1963 John and Charlotte Ditz bought the home and turned the first floor into a gift shop. New Bethlehem Bank owned the building-no date known for when they purchased and for how long they owned it- until it was purchased by Pam Potyka Goble in 2011.
The home was designated by the Clarion Conservancy as a building of historical significance.
This is a one-of-a-kind place to stay with an abundance of history, character and charm with the luxurious style of a high-end villa. This is where luxury meets casual… where people come together to eat, drink and be merry!
This one-time colonial mansion is a great place for friends and family to gather. Perfect for family/friend reunions, bridal parties, work retreats. This beautiful two-story property has an abundance of space for everyone. Sit and enjoy each other's company in the open concept living space or gather out of the front deck and enjoy the quaint town. Please note the rental is the second and third floor of the property, the Chamber of Commerce occupies the first floor.
