In 1935, Lewis Pritchard founded Eagle Lake General Store, combining a general store, post office, and gas station. The store, initially run by proprietor Don Harth, and then Olga Pritchard for several years, sold a variety of goods including food, hardware, and horse collars.

In 1947, Mr. Horsley sold the store to Walter and Margaret Besse along with Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Fisher. Eventually the Besse's bought out the Fisher's and operated the business until 1968.

In 1968, Walter and Margaret Besse sold the store to Allan and Ellenor Bagg, who moved to the area, from Woodbridge, with their 4 young children.

In 1984, a large 60' x 40' Addition was added to the original building by Allan and Ellenor Bagg and operated under the name Eagle Lake Food Town.

In 2004, Allan and Ellenor Bagg retired, and the business was purchased by their daughter Nancy, who owns and operates it to this day.
