Silver Lake RV & MH Estates

You all should have seen Silver Lake Park back in the '60's when we had a cottage (mobile home) permanently parked there. It was a beautiful place - All trailers had skirting, all lawns were cut, the entire park was immaculate. I worked for the owners back then as a Summer job in '67 and '68, cutting grass and picking up EVERY scrap of paper. It was never fancy, but always clean and safe. The beach was nice and clean, and the owners had a raft with a diving board in the deeper water off the beach. The roads were always in good shape, and if a pothole developed, the owners repaired it immediately before it swallowed vehicles.. There were basically 3 sections in the park. One area had full-time residents, one area had Summer and weekend residents, and one area was reserved for weekend campers. There were NO trailers or campers of any kind allowed down by the beach. This was a perfect place for all ages. I was a kid at the time doing lots of frog and turtle hunting and fishing. There were also many retired couples there year-round. I've driven through the park a few times in the last 10 years, and cannot believe the condition it has fallen in to. There seems to be evidence of an attempt to clean it up, based on a quick drive-by a few days ago, but it will never be how it used to be. I'm including a mid-'60's aerial postcard of the park.

I had never heard of Silver Lake before this weekend and I am hooked! This is a beautiful, no-wake lake that is perfect for that easy pontoon ride or, better yet, kayak trip. Beautiful sand beach with roped off area for the kids. We were visiting relatives, but this looks like a wonderful place to live too.

My sister and Hubby has the best view of the lake! Really nice, peaceful, and great lake!

This used to be a beautiful place to live I know I live there for almost 12 years. It really went downhill after I left but now they have new owners in there making a comeback I recommend checking this place out

Very clean and friendly
