Osier's This was owned and operated by Joseph Osier. More information in this site can be founf under Hunters Resort. Top Olejniczak's Northland Resort and Tavern This resort is located on Lower East Bay of Little St. Germain Lake and had been built and operated by the Komassa family in the 1920's. It consisted of 14-acres, 1000-feet of lake frontage, four cottages, a tavern, a home, and an ice house. In 1951 the resort was sold to Ervin Olejniczak and the name was changed to Erv's Northland Resort and Tavern. The resort is currently run by two of Erv's sons, Douglas and Alan and is now known as Olejniczak's Northland Resort. The tavern was permanently closed in the late 1970's and the building was sold to Ed Seeger who moved it to his house on Upper East Bay. The tavern building is now used by Mr. Seeger as a guest cabin. Top OK Resort This resort was more commonly known as Leisure Lodge. The original owner of this resort is unknown, but it was an early one on Big St. Germain Lake. It was one of only about a dozen businesses or individuals listed in a 1940's telephone book which still exists. The resort was eventually sold to a man whose last name was Weise. He built the two stone pillars on either side of the entrance to the resort on Half-Mile Road. He had a Y on one post and a Z on the other which represented the pronunciation of his last name. He operated this for many years, then sold it to Glenn Schmolze in the early 1970's. Glenn sold it in the 1990's to an unknown person. The supper club burned down and the cabins were sold. It is not known if the cabins were PSL'd (broken up into postage stamp size lots) or if they were condoed. Top |
