    My father and I visited Olson’s every year for YEARS. Dad and his brothers knew Cliff Olson and his family well. Dad kept a boat up there for 10-15 years and I visited at least half dozen times as a teenager.

    Dad is gone now but back in the late 60’s he almost bought a resort up there close to Olson’s. It’s sad to think that’s all gone. Wish there was some way to help.

    I worked at this resort in 1970 and now it is no longer there. Do you know what happened? David

      I can tell you what happened to Olsen’s Resort. We purchased the resort in 1993, remodeled the kitchen added a full service bar, renovated the cabins and the lodge, built new docks…I could go on. We sold the property in 2004 thinking the new owner would continue operating the resort. However, unknown to us, this person had other ideas and he completely demolished every single piece of the resort. I heard he intended to develop the property as a single family housing endeavor; however, I’ve also heard he never started the project. Regards, Steve Hunter
