Governor Craig Uses State House as Lake Retreat
A state owned house on Lake Wawasee has been converted into a summer cottage for Governor Craig. The two story building formerly housed Walter Kober the state fish hatchery superintendent who now rents a cottage at 75 dollars monthly. Conservation officials say about 1500 dollars was spent on new furniture and the house will host conservation training meetings when the governor is not there. William E Clarkson says the setup provides easier access than the dunes and confirms similar governor cottages exist at Dunes State Park and Brown County State Park.
