Chippewa Lake Park had been in business since the 1880's. The Beach family, Mac and his son Parker, had owned it for most of that time. Then in 1969 Parker sold it. Nine years later the new owners shut it down and left, leaving everything just as if it had closed for the night. Just like the ghost towns of the old west, overnight it was deserted. The author has lived in Chippewa Lake Ohio for over 60 years and worked at Chippewa Lake Park in his teen years. He has been an avid collector of Chippewa post cards and believes he has a copy of over 90 percent of all the cards published. Through over 350 of these cards and photographs he has told the story of Chippewa Lake Park his departed friend. He has also included his own, never before published portfolio of nature's 35-year reclamation of the park.
