Summary

In February 1960, the Beaver Beacon reported two nearly completed deluxe units at Archie LaFreniere’s Isle Haven Tourist Court, planned for occupancy by May 1. The same notice says Walter Wojan was completing four cedar-log deluxe housekeeping units adjacent to the court.

Evidence and limits

The report establishes planned construction and a target occupancy date, not completion, ownership, permits, or the later history of any unit.

Open questions

  • Do resort advertisements, permits, or property records establish completion and ownership?
