the guest house never burned. The servants quarters burned around 2000. When and who divided the original large lot?. It was 4 acres. The railroad ran right through it about 200 feet from the lake.

Yes the railroad was on what is now Railroad Ave, a town owned and maintained dirt road that runs out to Smith Point Rd. I believe there are a total of 4 properties below the inn and above Railroad Ave. I must be thinking of what you are calling the servants quarters that was recently rebuilt. So were there 2 buildings that burned down on the property? How long ago was it that the inn keepers cabin burned?
