In 1920, Lamb designed for himself a private summer home in the
Adirondacks in the village ofElizabethtown, New York . The house, which is still extant as a residence, is situated on the Boquet River. The eight-bedroom manor, referred to today as Cobble Mountain Lodge, is a shingle and cobble stone design marked by the whimsy of a stone turret.External links
