As requested.....

"Gardner Lake State Park is a 9.75-acre (3.95 ha)" - I think there's a noun missing here. Also this, and the other state parks shouldn't be in bold.
The second half of the lead looks like it was copied and pasted from another article. It would be worth rewording slightly to link things together, for instance : "The lake forms part of Gardner Lake State Park, a state park encompassing the lake and etc etc"

I don't think "grocer" should be wikilinked
What happened to LeCount's house in the end. You can't just leave the story as "it fell into the lake and was stuck" - something must have ultimately happened to it. Or if it is still there, that should be mentioned. I see there is a nice postcard of the house
Similarly, there's no time period indicating when any of this took place

Can you confirm all the actions in the previous GA reviews eg : Talk:Minnie Island State Park/GA1 have been resolved where the prose has been copied over?

"Leary writes" - this is the first mention in the article on Joseph Leary, so per WP:LASTNAME it should be spelled in full at this point

It's a shame there aren't any free images of the lake. The postcard picture of the house could possibly be used with a FUR that trying to describe what's in the picture is cumbersome and awkward.

As a lot of the content has been reviewed earlier, there's not too much to do here, other than just tidy up everything and integrate the components of the individual articles together. I'll put the review on hold pending improvements. Ritchie333 ^(talk) ^(cont) 16:58, 26 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
@ChrisGualtieri: - I see you're active on WP on the moment, are you busy elsewhere? Ritchie333 ^(talk) ^(cont) 21:41, 30 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Aye. I'll fix this on the 1st, sorry for the delay. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 05:18, 31 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I did some fixes. I'll double check again in a bit - sorry for the delays. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 08:07, 4 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Great. Give me a shout when you're done and I'll have a look through. Ritchie333 ^(talk) ^(cont) 19:42, 4 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I had a check and all the issues now look resolved, so after a bit of a delay, I'm happy to pass this now. Well done. Ritchie333 ^(talk) ^(cont) 17:01, 5 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
