Point Lookout Hotel Question

[MysticalMom (Premo)]

Remember the old point lookout hotel that was torn down some years ago? Anyone have any pictures of it they can share? Know the complete history of the palce? I used to have bunches of pictures but have misplaced them. Some of us were talking about it tonight at the bar and a few people didnt know anything about it.

When we were kids we would sneak in there to scare our friends, hold seances, listen and look for ghosts etc. (you know how dumb kids are) I had some pretty creepy experiences in that place though.

Just a memory that popped up out of the blue.....and with the way I destroyed my mind in high school I have to take them as they come.

That site showed some pics of the hotel in poor condition from the 80s and one where it looks pretty good from the 50s.

Since you found the old Pt Lookout hotel, I was wondering if you remember the old Seven Gables hotel close to the Solomons Bridge, I used to play there when I was a kid, one of my Dads relatives owned it then. He was a Westfall.
I've recently moved back to the area and of course it gone. Would like to find some pic's of it.

I remember the old Seven Gables. My grandmother has a painting of it that a local artist did (can't remember her name to save my life)

I still have some of the old tokens that were used I guess for some kinda slot machine, the last time I saw it was probably in the mid eighties, it was fenced off but you could go in and still find stuff below the floor boards. Any chance of taken a digital photo of the painting, and e-mailing it. I would really like to have it, if only in a picture.

Will do!

I live right down the street from where it used to be. I remember growing up, that was one scary looking place, all run down and over grown with weeds :eek:
