Does anyone remember either of these two places. Worked at the Camelot Inn as a busboy in the early 70's and as a repairman/handyman in the late 70's at Michigan Microwave. Michigan Microwave sold microwaves and repaired them and also vending machines. | ||

I remember Camelot. I lived downriver as a kid. It is noe Boomers. This is a nice Allen Park history site. I hope it works. http://books.google.com/books? id=0ot_YQpn-8UC&pg=PA57&dq=cam elot+inn+allen+park&sig=QKURQ6 K1dQmU3HDRlu6I7uyZQIY#PPA57,M1 | ||

Was the Camelot Inn now whats called the Allen Park Motor Lodge on Southfield Rd? I've lived in Allen Park my whole life, but I'm 24 so I wasn't around back in the 70s. | ||

I guess that answers my question. Great link, Dodge. There are some good pictures and info in that book. I am always intrigued looking at pictures of Allen Park going back to the early 1900s. | ||

Little-buddy: Was the Camelot Inn known for it's prime rib? Somehow, that's what popped into my mind when I read Camelot Inn. I've been there a couple of times. In the 70's. | ||

9936sussex, the Camelot Inn was know for it prime rib, suit and tie after 6pm and the Fox Trot nightly since 1963. They had a 3 piece band that played most nights and the owner and his buddy once they got drinking would get up there and sing. As a busboy you could have anything to eat except the trout,and as much as you wanted to eat and drink(pop,milk). So it was a good deal for a young guy who loved to eat, plus the tips where great. |
