Is there private hiking available on-site?
Yes! You have 16 private acres to explore, and our property line serves as a gateway to hundreds of acres of the Hoosier National Forest. Because this section has no formal trails, it offers a rare "off-map" experience perfect for backcountry hikers, nature photographers, and those seeking total seclusion.
What are the best summer activities at the Lodge?
Most guests spend their days moving between the 20x40 private heated pool, the private fishing pond, and the indoor gaming area. Evenings are best spent relaxing in the private hot tub or stargazing across our "Dark Sky" estate.
How does the "Double-Chef Kitchen" work for groups?
Large groups need extra space for meal prep and cold drinks. By providing two refrigerators, two stoves, and two dishwashers, you can easily store a week’s worth of groceries without playing Tetris or waiting around on cleanup.
Do you have any exceptions to your cancellation policy?To ensure your peace of mind, we highly recommend purchasing travel insurance at checkout. Because we are a unique, single-property destination that tends to book months in advance, we are unable to offer refunds for cancellations, but comprehensive travel protection can cover your stay if unexpected plans arise.
