Pine Cone Resort

 Have you ever looked at people on an old postcard and wondered what ever became of them or who they were?  Just a random thought.

Pine Cone Resort was on Kabekona Bay of Leech Lake.  According to the old map, it was located at the first spot after you turned off of 371 and on to the road that ran along Kabekona Bay.  If you drive in there today, you can see a beautiful beach and a strip of land between the road and the beach where the cabins used to sit.  It was right to the east of Bayview Resort.  

These pictures are from the 50's I believe.  I have seen postcards from the late 50's for Pine Cone Resort.

From one of the Chamber of Commerce maps from the 50's or early 60's judging by the cars in the picture on the Chamber map.  I wish they had put the dates on those old maps.    

Pine Cone Resort - Kabekona Bay.  Modern housekeeping cabins.  Excellent beach, boat launching, harbor, spacious grounds, boats, store.  Mr. and Mrs. Charles E. Tometie Jr. and Charles Tometie, Box 72 Walker.  Tel. KI 7-1474.

I don't know anything else about Pine Cone Resort.  I would love to find out more about it.  Let's hear your stories!
