A True Merritt Story
As Seen In Jurassic World Dominion
In February 2020, film crews shooting Jurassic World Dominion set up right outside our doors — using our storefront, across from Merritt’s historic Coldwater Hotel, for one of the film’s downtown scenes. Small-town claim to fame, and we don’t get tired of telling it.
