A reader raised concern about the location about an earlier post about Windy Hollow and its close proximity to Long Lake. Long Lake, which is an intermittent body of water is just south of where Highway 44 and the Western Pacific Railroad crossing, while Windy Hollow is just north from the same crossing.
Long Lake prior to 1900 was known as Anna Lake. George Best Long (1868-1925) had a homestead in the vicinity, hence its current name. He sold that property in 1925 for $500.
