We had a wonderful stay and truly appreciated all the small details that made this home so comfortable and welcoming. The décor was so much fun—loved the 70’s theme, which gave the place so much personality! There was never a dull moment with all the gaming tables and amenities available, and our whole group had a great time relaxing and enjoying the space together. We stayed here a couple nights for our employee Christmas party, but it really felt like a themed vacation. We would absolutely love to stay here again and highly recommend it to others!

Plenty of room for a large group, with tons of on site activities ! Fun for all ages.

We had my sisters bachelorette here last weekend, start to finish it was amazing. Plenty of space for us all to sleep & bathrooms! On top of it all, so many things to do that we spent the entire day Saturday by the pool and using the amenities. The rooms are so fun as well, we all loved it!!

The 70’s Lodge has all the amenities to accommodate a large group of people for bachelor/bachelorette or family gatherings. Our group of 20 enjoyed the stay, prompt responsiveness to our questions, and would stay here again.

We booked the 70's Lodge for our bi-annual family reunion. Dan and his staff was very responsive from the start of the reservation until the check-out date. The check-in process was smooth (code was provided by text and email the day before). Our grandchildren love the playroom with multiple TV stations, and the pool house. We (the adults) enjoy the pool, hot tub, and 3 brand new pickleball courts. As advertised, the 70's Lodge is dated, some of the rooms are a bit tight. Even with a large lodge and 4 bathrooms, we made it work for our group of 20 (12 adults and 8 children). Dan's crew was on top of things and was very responsive to our questions and unexpected needs.

Dan's crew was on top of things and was very responsive to our questions and unexpected needs. We would strongly consider coming in 2027 for another round.

Nostalgic, Comfy & Cozy Atmosphere! I Dream of Jeannie Room, Star Trek, James Bond 007, Laugh-In, Brady Bunch, Partridge Family Room and more...the attention to detail in each room is incredible! You could play games, pickleball, swim (the pool was spotless) or just relax in the sauna or by the fire pit. The Pool Barn, game room and grounds are perfect for a family reunion, wedding or a large gathering. So much to do and too little time. Thank you Dan & Lisa!
