Holiday Farm (1827)

A sign on the house at 285 Bantam Lake Road in Morris names the building Holiday Farm and gives it a date of 1827. There are numerous postcards from the early twentieth century with images of the Holiday Farm House, described as being on the “West Shore, Bantam Lake,” indicating it was one of the numerous guest houses of the time where vacationers lodged by the lake. There was also a treehouse on the property.
