History of the LakeHouse
The Smith Family from Chicago built the house in 1892 as a summer home. Sadly, during the stock market crash of 1929, Mr. Smith jumped from a building in Chicago and his widow sold the property to Otis Colby.
The Colby Family operated a used car lot to the north of the house, as well as a produce stand across the street on the lake side for many years. The house thereafter was best known as the Colby Mansion. The Colby’s celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary in this house in 1957.
In the early 1990’s, the home was purchased by Attorney Donald Bleich and renovated for its new incarnation as a restaurant. The house was leased from 1993-2007 as The Mansion Grille and from 2008-2014 as El Cozumel. In 2014, the Bleich Family wanted to restore the magnificent old home to its original character and name the restaurant exactly what it was intended to be back in 1892…a lake house.
On behalf of the entire LakeHouse Staff, we welcome you and hope that you enjoy your dining experience.
