Info.

The Bennington-Blusys Romantic Shelter is a modern covered bridge that crosses the Swartz-Carnahan Ditch two miles north of Leo, off of Garman Road in Cedar Creek Township, Allan County. This single span structure was built in 1979 utilizing a Stringer Truss, is 38 feet long. I have not yet had the opportunity to try and visit this structure in an attempt to collect a photograph.

The Bennington-Blusys Romantic Shelter is listed in the 1989 "Romantic Shelters: A Supplement to the World Guide to Covered Bridges," published by The National Society for the Preservation of Covered Bridges, Inc., as 14-02-A.
