HISTORY OF HOWIE’s on the LAKE

For nearly 90 years, Howie’s has been a fixture of the Portage Lakes.

Originally names “Caston’s Landing” in 1927, we started as a local grocery store and bait shop who catered to the weekend tourists and residents.

In the 30s and 40s, Caston’s was know to have a few attractions overlooked by the law- like slot machines tucked away in a garage out back.

Howie and Ada Geis bought the property in 1952 and changed the name to “Howie’s on Lake.” The grocery and bait shop expanded, a restuaurant and bar were added. Additionally, dock space was expanded and the weekend boating crowd was encouraged to stop for a bite or a drink.

Mrs. Geis continued to own the establishment until she decided to lease the property and sell the business in the late ’60s. After a few management and ownership changes, Howie’s was purchased by Max Guscoff in 1973.

For 39 years Max owned what would become an icon on the shores of Turkeyfoot Lake. He finally decided to retire in June 2012, and Eric Griffin purchased the business & property.

A lifelong Portage Lakes area resident, Eric’s family ties cross paths with Howie’s long before he ever considered purchasing the bar. His great grandfather Jack DeLuca was a tavern owner in Akron and later became the President of the Deluca Distributing Company- where the original bar from Howies was installed as a fixture in the conference room.

While the torch has been passed, Eric remains commited to preserving the history of and heritage of Howie’s on the Lake. We pride ourselves on our excellent and affordable food, cold beer and drinks, and amazing atmosphere and we’re open year round to serve you!
