Green Lake Lodge

"Welcome to Green Lake Lodge.

The main entrance is on the north side of the building, accessed from the car park. The two-storied building is constructed from an attractive mixture of wood and weathered stone and looks as if it belongs here.

The central part of the building is the administrative and recreational hub. Entering the reception area, you will find the registration desk on the right. To the left, an area of comfortable chairs and low tables. A big open fireplace gives a welcome in the colder weather and there are impressive trophy heads on the walls. Ahead of you is the main restaurant, with a view south over Green Lake. Along the south side of the building, a shaded deck is furnished with chairs and tables, which are used to extend the dining area when the weather is good. Upstairs are the offices, and the quarters of the resident manager.

From the reception area the main bedrooms are to your left, the east end of the building. There are six single rooms, twelve double rooms, four family rooms and two suites available for guests. These are on two floors and all have south-facing views over the lake. The north side of the bedroom spur is given over to staff bedrooms, for live-in staff upstairs, and storage facilities, downstairs.

The west end of the building is given over to entertaining the guests. A welcoming bar, tables and chairs, comfortable booths around the walls, a dance floor and room for the band to play. The dance area is two floors high and a balcony rings the room with additional tables and chairs for revellers. There is a terrace outside accessible from the dancefloor area with extra tables in fine weather - a popular area for those seeking somewhere a little more private, for a kiss and a cuddle. The lodge is popular for wedding receptions and the like and when the Lodge hosts the start-of-season and end-of-season Balls is filled to capacity. The bar is open to non-residents as well as Lodge guests, as are the restaurant facilities.

At the far end of the west spur is a small indoor swimming pool, with a gym upstairs.

The staff look forward to welcoming you to Green Lake Lodge."

The location of Green Lake Lodge can be seen on Map 4.

Tom Holt's Office

When the railroad closed the Snippettsville depot following the abandonment of passenger services, the town council of Snippettsville decided to adapt the recently closed railroad depot as the new offices for their Police Chief.

In its original form the depot had an office, a waiting room, male and female restrooms and a baggage room.

The office became Tom Holt’s office. The waiting room was converted into an open-plan office housing Tom’s factotum, Jennifer, and with desk space for the deputies. Desk space was also available if needed for visiting liaison officers from State Troopers or Highway Patrol. The restrooms retained their former function, and the baggage room was converted to provide two holding cells, a kitchen, an interview room and archive space.

The Police Chief’s office is therefore to be found on Map 3 of Snippettsville, building #3 on that map. There is, of course, plenty of parking space.
