Lacawac
Lacawac is a historic estate located in Paupack Township and Salem Township, Wayne County, Pennsylvania. It was built in 1903, as a summer estate of Congressman William Connell. Six of the eight buildings remain. They are the main house, barn, spring house, pump house, Coachman's Cabin, and ice house. The buildings are in an Adirondack Great Camp style. The main house is a -story frame dwelling with a cross gable roof. It features two-story porches and the interior is paneled in southern yellow pine.
After Connells death in 1909, the estate was purchased by Louis Arthur Watres for use as a summer home.
In 1966, the property was deeded to a non-profit organization and subsequently used as a nature preserve, ecological field research station and public environmental education facility.
It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979. Lake Lacawac was listed as a National Natural Landmark in 1968.
