Built in 1907 for Wilkie and Rhoda Waggoner Drake, this house became the home of physician Wilkie Drake, who graduated from medical school in 1902, practiced near Detroit, and then came to Breckenridge to begin a career that lasted nearly sixty years. After his death in 1963, the house passed to the Drakes' daughter, naturalist and author (Mary) Margaret Drake Elliott of Muskegon. Upon her death, Elliott bequeathed the house and its contents to the Breckenridge/Wheeler Area Historical Society.
