Susterka Lake, Wayne County, Michigan     User input for Susterka Lake, Wayne County, Michigan: Stuart: I was a LifeGuard at Susterka in 1957. Don taught me more about Guarding then the classes at the high school. A lot of first's in my life were at Susterka. Family moved away later that year and never say the place again. What a great summer. Pizza party every night and diving off the tall tower at midnite, on my back. Brad Susterka: My Great Grandfather, Anton Susterka, was the creator of ''Susterka Lake''. He started this swimming place in the early 1900's. My father met my mother in the mid 40's there and that's where I learned to swim. I will never forget the good times my family had there. Anton sold the property to Lissa Bastedo's father, Don, in the early 50's. Today the property is owned by Mike Suliman. All the buildings were taken down, but the small pond is still there. Suzanne Todd: Hi Lissa, Yes, I remember Susterka Lake well. I had on my very first two piece bathing suit when I swung out over the lake on those fantastic rope swings. As I hit the water, the top of my suit came off. I almost drowned trying to find and get my top back on. LOL. I am not sure how long ago you have been back to the Belleville area, but Susterka lake has all but disappeared. It is very overgrown and very little evidence of a lake remains. Suzanne Lissa Bastedo: Susterka Lake was owned by my family until the 1980's. It used to be the hot spot in the Belleville area. All my friends came to Susterka Lake for their summer fun. I now live on Maui in Hawaii. I guess I have traded one great spot for sun and fun for another. I want to say Hi! to everyone in Belleville. I may get back there some day. Have a great life. Aloha,Lissa Bastedo Daughter of Don Bastedo of Beleville, Michigan. He was the bomb.
