I vacationed every year the first 2 weeks of august from 1955 to 1967 on Lake Shore Drive at a place called Gibbson's Sleepy Hollow Cabins. They we're owned by John and Clara {Belle} Gibbson. They're niece and her family who we're from Boston would come up for the summer to help maintain the property. I believe their names we're James and Dotty with their 2 children Jimmy and Dorothy. I also remember a local girl named Kathy who was a good friend of Dorothy and would be there almost every day. The Gibbsons sold the business to Walter and Marge Gardner in the mid 60s, and the cabins we're converted to condos in the 70s. I know this was quite a long time ago, but was wondering if anyone else remembers any of this.
