Lake Park Addition Is
Valuable Improvement
HIRZEL-BoND co. PUTS PIcTUR-
ESQUE SITE ON MARKET
FOR RESIDENCES

The Lake Park addition to Eagle
River is one of the largest and most
recent developments of this section.
The owners and promoters, the Hirzel-
Bond Company showed excellent judge
ment and foresight in the requirement
of the beautiful property formerly
known as the Meihack Farm. It con-
sists of 80 acres within the village
limits of Eagle River. 1t is situated
between Silver Lake on the south
and Yellow Birch Lake on the north
The Silver Lake frontage has long
been famous as bathing beach and
frontage on Yellow Birch is equally
attractive, for boating and fishing 'ad-
Vantages. Lying as it does between
the two lakes, Lake Park has a climate
all it's own-protected from the early
frosts and with cool lake breezes dur
ing the hottest days of summer 1t
is easily accessible to town and is
without question, one of the most de-
sirable residential sections that could
have been added to Eagle River and
it has not been opened up too soon to
take care of the fast growing demand
for choice building lots.
Under the personal supervision of
Mr. Hirzel, a crew of men and teams
have been busy there since early
spring, plating the ground into lots
and laying out and building streets
and alley through the entire tract
Much care was taken to preserve the
beauty of the natural surroundings
The land lays high and gently rolling
between the two lakes On the east
it rises to table land overlooking all
of Eagle River and commanding a
beautiful view of the surrounding
lakes. Part of it has been under Gull
tivation, but enough of it is left in
tact to give an idea of its natural wild
state. On the high table land to the
east, a large hotel will be built. The
architecture of this hotel will be some-
thing unique in this section as it will
be built and modelled after the Euro
pean chalets, facing toward the vii
lage of Eagle River with wide veran-
das overlooking one of the most beau
tiful landscape views to be found any
where 1t will offer all of the con-
veniences and modern appointments
to be found in the large cities but
with just enough of the rustic atmo-
sphere to blend with the surroundings
and will remain open the entire year
The lands to the west have been SUBJ
divided into approximately one hun
dred village lots which will be sold
for residential purposes. Every lot
sold will be subject to building re-
strictions so that every builder of a
home there can be certain that the
beauty and desirability of his site will
be permanently preserved.
About 25 lots have already been sold
and one fine new home is now being
built there by DR.. Galligan.
In order that lot owners may have
from the beginning the means of MAX
ing the most of their common proper.
W, the lake frontage on both sides, a
Lake Park Homes Association will be
incorporated to run without stock or
profit for the improvement and care
of the property and each lot owner
will be entitled to a share and vote
automatically upon taking possession
of his purchase. The association will
be legally authorized to attend to the
proper methods of maintaining the
parks, tree planting, conditioning of
