The bay is flanked by Hurlburt Point to the west and Macdonough Point to the east, both of which are contained in Kingsland Bay State Park, a day-use facility operated by the state.
It is five bays wide and three deep, with a central hall plan.
At the time, there were no roads in the area, and commerce on the lake was of vital importance.
By then, roads had been built, to which much commerce moved, and the orientation of lake traffic became more north–south.
The building was used for many years as a farmhouse by local families, and was converted for use as a girls summer camp called Ecole Champlain about 1924.
