Sitting high above the Chautauqua grounds, the Hotel Conewago offered travelers a comfortable respite amidst the bustle of the summer season. Gretna Lake offered swimming, canoeing, and other water activities for summer visitors to the Chautauqua. Today, it still draws thousands of people each summer.
