Zukey Lake Postcards

Cottages along Zukey Lake, Lakeland, Michigan, postmarked 1914. One man along the shoreline is fishing. Note the tent pitched to the right of the middle cottage.

Lakeland, Mich., Postmarked 1912. It appears that the same tent is pitched along the shore. The writer is beseeching the addressee: “Can’t you come and help the men fish. You would Have a good time. Come.”

These two postcard views appear to be of the same lakefront area of Zukey Lake. Though the bottom card has an earlier postmark, I believe it is a later view. There appears to be an addition added to the middle cottage, and there’s now a boathouse in the front.
