A Town With Chautauqua Roots
Mountain Lake Park was founded in 1881 as a Chautauqua-style summer resort on the B&O Railroad, drawing speakers such as William Howard Taft and William Jennings Bryan. Its historic district, with more than 60 original turn-of-the-century buildings, is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, and the old Ticket Office that once served the Bashford Amphitheater now houses the town museum.
The office has its own parking lot, which makes a quick stop easy. Check the USPS location page for current hours before you head over.
