Lake Carey is a summer community of several hundred families in the Endless Mountains of northeast Pennsylvania.

As World War I drew near, the renamed Lake and its community were a fixture on the regional map.
Cottages with gingerbread porches sprang up almost overnight; hotels, steamboats, and picnic groves swiftly followed.
Lake Carey\'s story begins in 1874, when the narrow-gauge Montrose Railroad began service to the 262-acre glacial Lake named Marcy\'s Pond.
