Indian Point Park
East: 13165 Seeley Road
West: 12951 Seeley Road
Leroy Township, Ohio

A Grand River Reservation. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places by the National Park Service. Indian 
Point has one of the earliest architectural works in this part of Ohio. A tribe from the Whittlesey Culture lived
 here; a Whittlesey structure was built on the 100-ft ridge between Paine Creek and the Grand River. Two parallel
 mounds of their earthworks can be seen . The Whittelsey were an early people who lived from 900AD to 1650AD in
 stockade villages on high bluffs overlooking rivers and lakes. Because they had no contact with Europeans, the 
name of their tribe is unknown. (They are named after the archaeologist who discovered the tribe.) Charles Lyman,
 bought several acres at the Point in 1901. He had camped here often. In the years before World War I, Lyman used 
the area as a military camp for high school boys. More than 150 youngsters attended Lyman's Camp Wissolohican during
 its eight year period of existence. Lyman began carving the names of campers into a Totem Stone, which can be seen 
along the trail near the point. Later, the point became a Finnish camp, Kaleva Lodge.  During this time, a stone hut 
was built and used as a sauna, intact until the 1970s, when the park system dismantled it. The property was purchased
 from John Phelps in 1964. A plaque was erected here, in honor of James and Edna Phelps, his parents. (In 1802, part 
of the property had been deeded to his ancestors by the Connecticut Land Company.)
