Muskego Beach was once considered a highest-class amusement park, where rides such as Bubble Bounce, Screwball, dodgem’, Tail Spin, Wild Mouse, Walking Charlie, and other attractions drew large summer crowds. At its peak, a quarter million people of all ages visited each summer. John C. Schuet opened the Muskego Lake House in 1861 and developed the park for picnicking, fishing, boating, swimming, and dancing. William Boszhardt bought the park in 1928, and Charles Rose later built the largest roller coaster in the Midwest there, with a 75-foot drop. New rides, an arcade, and a ballroom were added, and the bathing beach was enlarged. After Boszhardt died in 1943, his wife sold the park to Rose in 1945. Willard Masterson operated it as DandiLion Park from 1968 until it closed in May 1978. Carousel #15 was later moved to California and placed at Puente Hills Mall in July 1991.
