For nearly 30 years Fern Brook remained largely a picnic grove for family, church, industrial labor and lodge gatherings.  It was a popular site for family reunions. 

Postcard views of the park during this period are quite rare and show simple structures and amusements (like swings) in a mainly wooded grove setting.  These views are particularly rare since it appears the park, in its later reincarnation as a full amusement park, appears not to have produced postcard views.  This is in contrast to the wide production of postcard views of Hanson’s, Rocky Glen and other area parks.next
