| Of Interest: A defensible stone lockmasters house sits on top of the knoll overlooking the lock. Used as the lockmaster’s residence, the gun slits have been sealed in, but if you look closely, you can see where they were. Behind a row of cedars on the shore of the basin is “The Ark,” an old, very large “houseboat,” pulled up on shore many decades ago, now a private residence. |
| Notes: Gas is available at marinas in Cranberry Lake and near Seeley's Bay. No local services. Solitude lock. Full services (groceries, restaurants, etc.) are available in Seeley's Bay. |
