Any clues what was nearby these cabins. Some sort of landmark. Was it a place from your youth, about how many years ago.

I could be way off but have a vague recollection of something like that on rt3 near where pirates cove mini golf is now. half way between Meredith and weirs

You might check with the Lake Winnipesaukee Museum up by Funspot or the Meredith and the Laconia Historical Societies if that's the area you think it might have been.

Great American cabins as I remember were white with red trim and screened porch facing the water. Around 1967. I can remember catching hornpout from shore. I don’t know which lake it was on. Funny the things you remember and the things you don’t.

Ask McDude (one of the resident historians of the area), he might have some photos and memorabilia
