The Charles P. Noyes Cottage (also known as the Fillebrown House) was a summer home of Saint Paul pharmacist, Charles P. Noyes, who came to St. Paul in 1868.[1] The cottage is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.[2]
A sign outside the cottage cites it as being a rare example of American Picturesque architecture, dating back to the late 19th century when White Bear Lake was a resort town with large colonnaded hotels and fine summer homes along the lake.
The house was owned by the Fillebrown family for most of its years as a residence, and was donated to the White Bear Lake AreaHistorical Society in 1978.[3] The house is open for tours and special events.
