Punderson Manor

Punderson Manor

Uploaded: April 25, 2010

Description

The English Tudor style Punderson Manor House serves as the lodge and conference center at northeast Ohio's Punderson State Park. Construction by the original owner began in 1929, and following it becoming the property of the state, it was opened to the public in 1956. (If you have an interest in ghosts, this is the place to go as it has been the location of numerous "verified" sightings. And, yes, Monnie and I have stayed overnight there...but, no, we didn't have any ghostly encounters.)
