Gathering at the Lodge

Reunions, Weddings, Corporate Meetings, Group Events, etc...

The Lodge is a unique gathering place for family reunions, weddings and other group events.   After the days' activities, or just for some private time, guests can retire to one of their own 27 charming rooms with private bath
 
The Great Room can be used for family dining, group meetings, showing of videos, work sessions or socializing with other guests, watching cable TV, reading books, building puzzles, playing cards and games or just viewing the lake, sandy beach and gardens.  There is an arcade area with pool table, pinball and video games. 
 
For family reunions we can organize kids’ games such as races, water balloon toss and treasure hunts.  The Lodge can also arrange catering for lunch or dinner, restaurant reservations, cookouts, golf tee times, fishing expeditions, rental of pontoons, boats and water toys, movie nights, off-site excursions, or other activities desired by your group.
 
Continental breakfast is available for self-service and includes english muffins and a variety of breads for toasting, coffee, teas, and make-your-own waffles.  Lunch and dinner cooking can be done on premise with microwaves, toaster oven, crock pots, barbeques or food can be catered from local restaurants or from the Lodge itself.  Seasonally we provide simple food (hot dogs, chips, nachos) and soft-drink items for sale on the beach during lunch hours.
