"This place is awesome. We were instantly greeted by really nice people and Melinda is a wonderful bartender. We did not make it in time for the fish fry but the ribs on Saturday sound really good. Everybody here was really nice and gave us lots of suggestions on what to do while in the area. It feels like home when you walk in and the life are dim enough keep things exciting but also well it enough to feel like everybody can chat and get to know one another."

"I was visiting this Lodge and had a great time. The people I met were very friendly and welcoming. They had a very nice smoke free lounge. The grounds are awesome. They have a grilling area, a fire pit and a raised stage for bands to play. I wish I could've stayed for the music and pig roast today! Beautiful place!"
