The historic Dole Mansion in Crystal Lake, home to the annual 4th of July Lakeside Festival for over 40 years and many other events, attracts tens of thousands annually. Built-in the 1860s, it remains the centerpiece of this gorgeous estate, an ideal setting for a farmers market and the perfect backdrop to market your business. It is adjacent to Crystal Lake’s lively Main Beach and Country Club; therefore, it’s a high visibility location which will capture the attention of many!
