Weary city dwellers could escape hot urban summers and call a little piece of the country in the Oldest Summer Resort in America. Couples and families played Horseshoes and tossed balls under tall trees, enjoyed lake pleasures, entertainments, and shopping in the village, and returned to their cottages for socializing and well-earned sleep at night. Wendy and I became the proud owners of The Cottages in the fall of 2008. Longtime residents in the area, we knew that under the worn exterior was the jewel we remembered. The Berry Cottages were opened around 1946 to welcome returning GIs and their families for inexpensive and active vacations. The individual cottages offered privacy, space for socializing and active children, and kitchen facilities to control dining expenses. Their location encouraged guests to explore and enjoy outdoor and downtown activities. As chain motels became the norm in the late 1970’s, many similar communities died out, but luckily, the Cottages survived. Wendy and I discovered sound foundations and good construction. The original cottages’ assets remain - privacy, space, and kitchen facilities. Quite honestly, the location has only gotten better. We had a ton of fun updating, painting and redecorating.
