“Dear Niece,
As you were not out to the lake with us, I will send you a view of the hotel. I suppose you and Loylia are having a good time now. From Aunt Maria” June 22, 1907
What a wonderful way to spend time in the summer! Vacationing on a Michigan lake, in a beautiful hotel with a big, white porch. I can imagine the guests sitting on the porch enjoying the sunrise with a steaming cup of coffee, or sipping ice cold lemonade after a long day in the sun. And, after dinner, enjoying a spectacular Michigan sunset while getting acquainted with the other hotel guests. Aunt Maria certainly knew how to enjoy a Michigan summer.
Clark’s Lake is a spring-fed Michigan Lake in the Irish Hills area near Jackson and Brooklyn in Columbia Township, Jackson County. Clark’s Lake covers 580 acres with reported depths of 50 feet and is home to a Jackson County Park.
