Little Bohemia Lodge

Saturday, August 04, 2018

Went on a road trip with my hubby today, and spent some nice quality time together. We drove up to Manitowish Waters to see Little Bohemia Lodge. That is where the famous Dillinger FBI raid happened, and was recreated in the movie Public Enemies. They have three room preserved and you can still see the gunshot holes today. Just crazy!

It was a great day!

So glad you had a great trip. This is a fun thing to do - a peek into the past. I also enjoyed the room where they had the enlarged newspaper articles from those days, as well as one of Dillinger's dapper coats, etc.

I also laughed at Army Mom's comment thinking originally that your blog was about the terrible rooms that you were given at a lodge! Can you imagine walking into a motel room filled with bullet holes?? Anyway, that was funny. Thanks, Army Mom for a good morning chuckle!

We haven't stopped there yet. Lots of other places, though, in the area. Great pictures. May have to checked into it if it's close to our path back home later this month.

My DH and I went up there many years ago and one place we stopped to eat, the husband grew up only a block away from me - small world.
