"Log cabin scene Dam Lake-Manitowish Wisc-The Win-Mar" ca 1930s |
Description |
Caption reads "Log cabin scene Dam Lake - Manitowish Wisc - The Win-Mar These buildings were located to the left of the Rest Lake dam, looking downstream. The buildings on the right in the photo were most likely part of the Mississippi River Logging Co prior to 1904, when the camp was sold to the Chippewa Lumber and Boom Co. In 1913 the property was then sold to the Chippewa Land and Improvement Company. The Win-Mar Resort had cabins here, both along the road as well as on Dam (Vance) Lake. (See Photos Catalog 2018.2.1 for another image of a cabin). The partial building shown in this image may be one of the cabins. The Pea Patch motel was eventually built on this site. |
