always enjoy returning to the lodge over the decades. The location is idyllic. I hate seeing the cutbacks that have let it decline, but the rooms themselves are neat, the beds comfortable, the bathrooms updated. The staff is all around excellent, friendly, engaging, professional. always feels like coming home.

They should advise us in the description that the property is currently undergoing parking lot construction and I have to say, as WiFi is spotty in the countryside, not having reliable WiFi in the facility and not being able to use their phone system was a real problem.
