Historic Hotel and Restaurant in Upper Lake Have New Owners

The Tallman Hotel and Blue Wing Saloon in downtown Upper Lake have been sold. Bernie and Lynne Butcher, who renovated the historic hotel and built the restaurant next door, said they have sold the two businesses to Amar and Rajvi Alapati. The Alapatis own eight other boutique hotels. The new owners say they’re committed to continuing the high level of personal service the Butchers have provided over the last two decades.
