About this lodge
Looking for a place to get the family together and spend time catching up? Heritage 1865 is just what you are looking for! Heritage Lodge was just finished in 2014 and is located in Southern Iowa, just minutes from Lake Rathbun. The lodge has all the modern amenities you would expect and more, but tucked away in the quiet, serene countryside. The living area features high ceilings, an 80" flat screen TV over the wood-burning fire place, pool table and is large enough to accommodate the largest of families. All 4 bedrooms have queen size beds with a single bunk on top. There is a full kitchen, washer/dryer facility and 2 large bathrooms. Relax on the large patio and light a fire in the fire pit. Explore the great outdoors and enjoy the wildlife on the walking paths! Hang out by the shared private lake which has your own private beach and private dock. We have one kayak available as well! We do have RV Sites at the front entrance for $35/Night if you want to bring a bigger crew!

My husband & I love getting a rental every summer. Our son, daughter, son in law & 3 precious grandkids stayed at Heritage 1865 for 4 days. Kayaking, fishing, playing in sand on little beach, and grilling so fun. It rained one day but games & pool table were wonderful. Thought there would be a paddle boat too but owner said that had been gone for years. Also couldn’t find remote to tv & once we searched high & low, found it in sofa cushion (very dirty). There was also a Brillo pad rusted to kitchen counter, coffee maker had mildewed filter still in machine, tons of alcohol still in kitchen. We had specifically asked owner to not have alcohol on premise. Spent a lot of time dumping alcohol down drain. Still beautiful home & we had great time. Thanks

Beautiful property, showing some wear and tear. Not as clean as one would expect but Abby was extremely helpful, polite and accommodating. She made things right. Beach area was a very dirty sand/mud. Shore by beach was a little weedy. Great outdoor area. Hot water was great even with large group. Checkin was super easy, kayaking around the pond was nice, very quiet. Close to Rathbun. Hosts were very easy to work with.
