Another view of the Deer Park Hotel...

Another image of the Deer Park. It is my understanding that post cards of this era were hand-colored, so it's possible that the hotel may have had different wall/roof colors than what is depicted on this card.

Parker's Dam...

My family and I were up at Deer Park a few weeks ago, and I took some pics while were we walking around the property...there isn't much left to suggest that an elegant hotel once graced the grounds...

There is an old dam that I have mentioned before Pemigewasset Dam . I have since found out that the name is Parker's Dam, and it's existed for quite some time. It dates back to the time when there were multiple logging mills in the area. The dam is located to the left of the Deer Park property and is a great place to go to fish (or have a cold beer on a hot day). This is how the dam looks now.
