As many of you already know, Early in the 20thC the Grand Trunk Railway System decided to build 3 wilderness getaways in Algonquin Park. Their belief was that if tourists had fun destinations to visit, the then-new middle-class interest in recreational tourism, would likely be a great driver of railway passenger traffic. This narrative shares stories from guests, visitors, leaseholders and staff from their heyday beginnings in 1908 and 1912 to their eventual demise. Enjoy

Well done Gaye! I'll keep an eye out for it when we're in the park. Visits to the HQ to buy a few things is an annual stop for us when we're in AP.
