ENJOYING THE TOUR & LAKESIDE
Ticketholders will receive a map of the cottages. Please visit the homes in random order. Children, pets, photos, videos, food and beverages are not permitted in the homes.
LWC volunteers provide a free golf cart shuttle service to the cottages, marked with ‘Cottage Tour’ signs. You may also ride the historic tram on its planned route to all locations. The free Lakeside golf cart shuttles, marked by orange flags, also have predetermined stops. You may use these shuttles but not to go to specific cottages.
Be sure to allow time during the day to tour Lakeside and its beautiful gardens, visit local shops and restaurants, and browse the Lakeside Craft & Art Show taking place on the Hotel Lakeside lawn on the day of the tour from 9 a.m.-5 p.m.
