I know Sunbeam Lodge very well, having lived next to it from 1944 till we sold our house and boathouse. The original house has been torn down and a huge white house stands where my house used to be. The log boat house is still there and a log house has been built in back of it.
Your Sunbeam Lodge was owned by the Coty family.. They were from Manchester, NH and owned Sunbeam bread. The property was as you described..large house and 3 cabins. They sold to the Clark family. The cabin you are living in is not part of Veasey,s......Veasey was our caretaker and lived on the right hand side of the road about a mile in from the highway. He had cabins for rent just past his house down on the lake but not as far as the Cody house.
Do you know the story of your Sunbeam cabin? It used to be on Beaver Island and was brought across the ice one winter. Ben Ames Williams wrote " Leave her to Heaven" in your cabin!
