A new documentary series directed by Mark Stutzman explores the provenance of his beloved hometown, Mountain Lake Park which was founded as a Chautauqua settlement in the late eighteen hundreds. Victorian cottages, both showy and modest, still line the streets of this charming Appalachian town.
It began as a mountaintop retreat for city-dwellers escaping the summer heat on the B&O Railroad where they could drink in cultural events, and experience a spiritual renewal through the summer months
Funded in part by Mountain Maryland Gateway to the West Heritage Area, the Maryland Heritage Area Authority, and the Town of Mountain Lake Park.
