History of Yellow House

In 1801, a hotel was built at the intersection of Routes 662 and 562 in the scenic Oley Valley to serve as a stagecoach stop and country store for travelers between Reading and Philadelphia.  Over the past 200 years, the Yellow House Hotel has evolved into a restaurant and hotel with a fine reputation for its delectable bill of fare, pleasing atmosphere and comfortable accommodations.  The influence of the Yellow House Hotel on the surrounding area is evidenced by the name in which it provided to the resulting village... the hamlet of Yellow House.  Through the years, the ownership of the hotel has changed hands more than 26 times.  It has served as an integral part of the history of the area, housing a general store, the village switchboard and a post office.  Since its beginning, the Yellow House Hotel has remained a charming focal point in the area both inside and out.  Current owners, Carl and Patricia DeGrazia, continue to honor this tradition.
