I have been searching and searching for what used to be on a piece of property along Scenic Rd.
I figured it had to be a motel or a restaurant.
I visited the Laconia Library today to see the "Are We There Yet?" exhibit. It was very informative.
I am pretty sure that what was on the property was Look Off Rock Motel and Cabins.
There is a sign post still on the property, but comparing the pictures I saw and the one that is there now, I suspect it may have been changed before the motel was gone.
I would like to locate some photos online so I can show my family. Does anyone know where I can find some?
I would also like to know if there is a book already in print or one being worked on that is basically what I saw on display at the library.
There is a fabulous book on Route 66 that a gentleman wrote and he had the before photos of what things looked like it their heyday and then he took current photos of what it looked like now.
I think this a fabulous idea and it would definately encourage folks to come and take their own road trip!
