Lee’s Ferry

John D. Lee settled here in Dec. 1871 and established ferry service thirteen months later. After her husband’s death, Warren M. Johnson ran the oar-driven ferry for Emma Lee, 1875 to 1879, when the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints purchased her interest. Johnson served until 1895. He was followed by James S. Emett who sold to the Grand Canyon Cattle Company in 1909. Coconino County operated the ferry from 1910 to 1928.

Nellie C. Bailey House

Built in 1919, this home is an excellent example of a Prairie style bungalow. The home was built for Nellie Bailey, who had lived with her family for many years in the large Victorian home to the North. Like many of her time, she wanted a home with modern amenities, and had one built on her own property. The house has many elements common to the Arts & Crafts and Prairie style.

The home has horizontal bands of brick and stucco surrounding the home, with casement windows set within those bands. The hip roof features large overhanging eaves and a low-angled pitch. Like many bungalows, it features a large front porch which covers the entire front of the home.

Inside, the home is a collection of beautiful woodwork. Gumwood trim, in horizontal bands, was used in the living room and dining room. Quarter-Sawn Oak, Maple, and Vertical-Grain Douglas Fir, are used in other parts of the home. The home has been owned by three families since Nellie Bailey.
