COLCHESTER, Conn. — A vacant building that was part of the Lincoln Lake Lodge in Colchester was destroyed by fire Tuesday morning. 

The Colchester Hayward Volunteer Fire Company said the fire went to a second alarm and mutual aid was called in from surrounding towns.

The lodge was started in the 1900s as a resort, one of several in the area according to a post on i95rock.com.
