The Lodge & Surrounding Area
Within the Lodge we have 2 large fireplaces, dining room, and bierkeller with fireplace, dinner and Lodge guest bar area (the bar is not open to the public) with a little library and lots of space to play some of our games.
The top floor of the lakehouse is being finished spring 2003 as a Lodge guest area with screened in porch overlooking the lake.
As you mosey along our 25 acres of wooded land you find yourself gazing down the 100 year old railway corridor. Here, you realize that you are near an Historic Junction of endless year round outdoor activities.
