Great place. High standard and maintenance.
A perfect place for two- three families to hang out and enjoy the atmosphere and the house.

Phenomenal
We are a family of 12 and absolutely enjoyed every minute of it. The pictures don't do the real thing justice. A perfect getaway.

As I write this review, I am kicking myself because I am afraid that it will become too popular and I won't get it when I want it! This was our second stay at the lodge and it was fantastic. This house is perfect for a large family or group. The view is absolutely spectacular! We were there for the changing of the leaves and it just doesn't get any better. You can see for miles and miles all around you and it is gorgeous. And thanks to the owner, Rickie, the kitchen is stocked amazingly! We could not have had a better experience!
