lost acres celebrated it's 75+ years as a resort in 2023

                                                                                               LOST ACRES LODGE 1949
​     2023 was a big year at Lost Acres.  We celebrated the 75th+ years of the resort being a resort.  In putting together the history of the resort we are uncertain when it really came into existence but we think somewhere in the late 1930s or early 1940s.  We know for sure that the Lodge became 75 years old this year.  
We also celebrated our (the Mahaffey family) 20th year as owners of Lost Acres.  So, there were many fun things we did to celebrate all this over the past summer.  
     Over the summer and fall of 2023, we highlighted many of the families and people that have been coming to Lost Acres on our Facebook page.  So many people sent us wonderful pictures and great stories.  Look back at the Facebook posts over this past year to enjoy some of those pictures and stories.  
     We are now putting together a book with the history of the resort, as best we know it, so that the history does not get lost.  We have interviewed many past patrons over the past year to paste together the history.  And, by the beginning of next season we will have the history book completed.  Many wonderful pictures have been given to us as we put it all together.  More on that toward spring!
     We thank all our guests (now friends) for the past 20 years of our ownership of the resort.  It has been a labor of love re-building this wonderful place.  And, we look forward to many more years here.
