Perfect for 80th birthday celebration
The lodge is designed for living on multiple levels with several bedrooms and different bed configurations. This allowed us to sleep 15 (children and adults) in ways that suited everyone's needs. The one bedroom listed with two bunk beds actually has one bunk bed (and double) but we were able to make do with a blow up mattress. The kitchen was fairly well supplied with anything one would need for cooking. A second frig in the basement was useful. There is little soundproofing, but it is a lodge, after all. The home is located on a hill with several decks (one with two grills), ample yard space and a lovely view. There is not much to do in the local area, but the remoteness is what makes the home so special. Hiking and golf are 30-45 minutes away, for instance The roads that run parallel and perpendicular to the property carry some truck and car noise, but we weren't bothered by it.
The large indoor pool with diving board and the hot tub were show stoppers. The kids (ages 6-16) spent most of their time swimming and having fun in the water. A ton of pool toys are available and provided endless hours of entertainment. The kids barely left the water to eat a meal! Even the adults participated in the fun. There is also ping pong, foosball, pool and several TVs, although very little time was spent watching TV or using phones!
A retro Pac Man arcade game was a hit with young and old alike. A game table is perfect for cards or extra eating space.
Everyone is talking about returning.
