James B. and Mary (Church) Allen
This was the old boathouse, once a part of the Arlington Hotel complex
on Long Point. It was the former boat storage and servants quarters for
the Arlington Hotel. The
cottage now has a large glass window overlooking the lake on the lower
level. Originally there were two large doors to allow a boat to be
pulled in on the sand floor and moored to a piece of railroad track.
This part of the house is now the kitchen.
