Many of the original Honey Lake settlers had an entrepreneur spirit, while in the throes of an establishing their new found home.  One such individual was Nicholas Clark who located on the west shore of Honey Lake, four miles north of Milford. In 1857, his place was an informal stage stop. Taking advantage of Honey Lake, he advertised having two fine boats, whether for fishing or pleasure, equipped with quality fishing tackle. This was the first of many commercial boating endeavors  on Honey Lake. It should be noted that in 1881, Clark had the only boat on Honey Lake.
