Club House and Cottages

The Club House

NPS

The Club House and nine cottages that were once owned by the South Fork Fishing and Hunting Club are still standing in present day Saint Michael on Main Street. Park signs will direct visitors from Route 869. You can also pick up a copy of our park brochure in the Visitor Center.

Originally, the Club House and sixteen cottages sat on the shore of Lake Conemaugh. Much of present day Saint Michael was once part of the lake. The town of Saint Michael was established after the 1889 flood. There is a parking lot at the Club House for visitors who wish to walk around on the porch. Please note that the interior of the building is closed. Many of the remaining cottages are private homes and can be identified in the park brochure or by a plaque on the structure.

If you decide to view the cottages for yourself, please remember that none are open for touring. All of the cottages, whether privately owned or owned by the National Park Service, are private residences (plus one that is undergoing stabilization) and can only be viewed from the street. Please respect all private property. The Club House can only be toured at certain times. Please ask a ranger how you can do this. You are welcome to go up on the porch of the Club House for a closer look.
