It was Door County's
largest resort, built by
brothers Paul and John
Bertschinger. It opened in
1922 with a main lodge, 20
cottages, and several service buildings that were
expanded upon over the years. Some of the firsts at that
time were indoor plumbing. Refrigeration was by means
of an ice house with ice harvested from the bay during
winter months. A 9 hole golf course was purchased in
1926 and additional 9's were added in 1948, 1976, and
2002.
