Park Place Cottage
In bygone days, the description for this updated 100-year-old Cottage was, “It sits a block away from & high on the hill for panoramic views of White Bear Lake”. You can still get glimpses of the lake through the trees & modern houses that dot the landscape. There are still several small cottages from the days when Wildwood Amusement Park was the 'go to destination' from the big cities.
