Camp Longwood
[Weber]| (from [[1]]|) ]] Camp Longwood is a Great Camp on Spitfire Lake built by George S. Brewster between 1906 and 1908. Designed by New York architect Robert F. Stephenson, it was built by Benjamin A. Muncil, known for his work at Camp Topridge. Accessible only by water, the camp is built as a series of separate cabins, sited to blend into the woods.
The camp was bought by Nan Bush and artist/fashion photographer [Weber] from Brewster's son, Edward C. Brewster.
