The Neighborhood:
Our neighbors include deer, red fox, wild turkeys and stray cats (every once in a while). Not a fast paced neighborhood -- you may have to wait a little bit before passing Amish buggies and farm tractors but its worth it.

The Lodge Quirks:
-- Cell service can be spotty on your approach, it is best to have printed direction with you as you may loose signal. Once at The Lodge, you can call and text with most carriers, but may have slow/low signal on the lower level.
-- The pool is open May 1 - October 31, as long as mother nature co-operates.
--4-wheel drive/AWD vehicles highly recommended in the winter as driveway is 1/2 mile long and a little steep; however there is a back entrance should it be needed. We will notify guests when this would need to be used.

Interaction with Guests:
Although we enjoy getting to know our guests, we respect their space and the privacy they need. Feel free to call or text for anything you might need. We will respond to you as quickly as possible.
