The Johnson home on left, the original resort hotel/dining room partially hidden behind the barn and the newer Villa dining hall on the far right. The Barn was eventually converted into the Charles Svensson home at 1203 Lake Street. In the foreground is the small farm that helped feed the guests.

Taken from an advertising flyer of the time:

* "We have our own vegetables, fruits, chickens, eggs, etc., prepare our smoked meats and have plenty of milk from our own cows. These, together with our good wholesome home cooking, has made for us a reputation of setting an excellent table." (See reservation Letter)
