Summary
The lodge, located south of Columbus, was constructed in 1938. It is significant for its association with the Izaak Walton League of America and the fulfillment of its espoused conservation mission. From its inception, the Columbus "Ike" chapter actively pursued the stocking of fish and raising of wild game birds. Additionally, the chapter took a strong interest in enforcing state hunting laws and promoting innovative legislation dealing with wildlife, water, and habitat conservation.
