History

The depot was built by the Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul and Pacific Railroad (Milwaukee Road) in 1884, with porte-cochère added in 1919. It served passengers including resort patrons until the 1950s and freight until 1970. Currently, it serves as a museum.[3][4]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978 and the State Register of Historic Places in 1989.
