<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><span style="font-size: 16pt;">Part I &#8211; Point Lookout Hotel &#8211;</span></h2>



<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;"> The picture of Point Lookout Hotel that was carried in the November 1988 issue of <span style="font-size: 16pt;"><strong><span style="color: #0000ff;">The Chesapeake</span></strong></span> brought back poignant memories that I have really tried to put out of my mind. The last time I visited the Hotel, She reminded me of a skull looking with sightless eyes across the waters of the Bay. I say ‘She,’ because to me She was once a lovely old lady sitting there beside the beach smiling at the sea gulls and fishermen as they passed in their boats.</span><br /><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Today there is nothing left of what was there. She has been vandalized beyond description. They have stripped Her of everything, from Her furniture to Her kitchen equipment, to Her very doors – even to Her windows, so that now She is a mere hulk of herself and slowly deteriorating – soon to be just a memory.</span><br /><span style="font-size: 12pt;">I try not to think about Her this way, but instead, remember the happy times when She was alive with the sound of people laughing and enjoying what She had to offer. It is my hope that maybe my poor excuse for writing will somehow impart to you some understanding and feel for what I perceived Her to be.</span><br /><span style="font-size: 12pt;">She was not the first hotel built on Point Lookout, and she is not as old as she would seem, having been built just after the First World War. I first visited the hotel sometime around 1937-38 and thought She was grand with Her wide double staircase leading to the upstairs from the great oaken-curved desk. I have since learned that business-wise, She was in hard times and had been since the steamboats had stopped calling.</span><br /><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><br />The Second World War was a shot in the arm for Her! During the construction of Patuxent Naval Air Station, many a workman was billeted there, since housing in St. Mary’s County was practically non-existent prior to building what is now the Lexington Park Hotel, and the houses are known as Lexington Park (more commonly called ‘the flat tops’.)</span><br /><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Those years were the last years in which the Hotel was run year round. As pretty and pleasant as it is down on the Point in summer, it is just as desolate and cold during the winter months when the North East wind whips across the Bay, carrying cold and dampness that can cut to the bone. If there is anyone you know that lived in the Hotel during those years, I would love to hear from them.<br /></span><br /><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Following the Second World War, She had a number of managers who attempted to run Her successfully, ending up with what was called the ‘army’ just prior to my abortive attempt. Now, in reality, it was an arm of the Pentagon who operated the facility as an ‘R &; R’ for the poor overworked ‘Brass.’</span></p>

<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Being an enlisted man, with my face in the mud during the War while people I didn’t know tried to do me bodily harm, it never dawned on me that anyone in the Pentagon needed ‘rest and recreation.’ </span></p>



<p>I had always thought that the Pentagon WAS ‘R &; R!’ I guess we poor, misguided types just never knew the hardships of having a nine-to-five job and being forced to live in or near the Capital of these United States!!<br /><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><br />In some fairness to the military owners – they did improve the Old Girl while She was under their command. They installed a sprinkler system, put storm windows on each window, erected a helicopter pad behind the swimming pool (something every little hotel needs,) and saw to it that it was kept in as good of shape as possible. Something I tried to emulate, albeit, with far fewer funds than they had.</span><br /><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><br />The Army-Pentagon decided to sell the facility, because, (we have been told) the ‘Brass’ came down less and less, primarily because there was no golf course nearby! The poor devils had to drive twenty-one miles to the Pax River Naval installation to play golf!! And then after an exhausting time on the links, drive another bone-shattering twenty-one miles back!!</span></p>



<p>To the best of my knowledge, during that period, no civilian or enlisted men (other than those working for the facility) were allowed on the grounds.<br /><span style="font-size: 12pt;">I will not attempt to give you a full history of the old Hotel, rather instead, I will tell you some of the things that transpired while I was the manager, and give you an understanding of why it is closed.</span></p>
