04 Sagamore: Caretaking Complex - Complex Diagram
The Caretaking Complex is a cluster of ten contributing buildings and two contributing structures situated in from the
lake, south of the outlet and within 400 feet to the north and west of the adjacent Guest Complex.
This service group occupies slightly higher ground which, together with intervening forest, screens it from view and sets it apart from the Guest Complex. The buildings are organized along an unpaved drive that runs east-west between the main road and the drive of the Guest Complex.
The character of the buildings is generally vernacular. Except for the shingled siding of the New Men's Camp and small Ice House, and exposed log construction in the Woodshed, the predominant exterior materials are vertical board or board-and-batten siding above rubble wall, rubble pier or concrete foundations. Differences in the size, spacing and chamfering of battens indicate different periods of construction.
