Join us for a fun-filled afternoon as we celebrate the famous Lakeshore Lodge. Staff will be in period
costumes as we re-create an old fashioned picnic from the 1890s. Hayrides (small fee), games, music, face painting and refreshments (small charge) will complete the “Days of Yore” atmosphere. Festivities take place on-site at the Lakeshore Lodge Day Use Area.
Lakeshore Lodge, built around 1870, grew from a local summer retreat into a popular and elegant first class hotel. At one time it boasted a dance hall, ice cream parlour, bowling alley, tennis courts, pool, baseball diamond, horseback riding, shuffleboard court, and 4 hole golf course. Changing vacation habits saw the closure of the lodge in 1972. Fire destroyed the main building in 1983. Admission: free with paid park admission
