Johnson House Update: We are pleased to report that through the generosity of our members and friends, the support of the Town of Three Lakes, the Three Lakes Community Foundation, a generous local charity, and a preservation grant from the DAR, we have achieved our funding goals for Phase 1 & 2 and the restoration work is more than 50% finished. Stop by and see the progress! More information on funding and the project here, 

The Museum is open for its 45th Season! Come visit our newest exhibit! We have created a nostalgic look at early lakeside living. Whether it was called the cottage...or the cabin, it was a cozy retreat at the lake. A place to make lasting memories with family and friends. Looking forward to hearing from you about your time spent at the lake!

Thank you to all our current & past members, donors, and supporters who have made this possible. Here’s to another great summer! Museum Hours: Tuesday-Friday 11-3 Saturday 11-2
