Getting Here:
The final mile gives you a little taste of mountain driving, with a one-lane gravel road, a few tighter turns, and some steeper spots. It may feel adventurous the first time or two if you’re not used to mountain roads. 2-Wheel-Drive vehicles handle it just fine; AWD or 4WD is recommended in winter months if snow or ice is present.

Please note that while the lodge overlooks the river, the property does not have direct river access.

Convenience:
Bed linens and towels provided
Starter supplies including toilet paper, paper towels, trash bags, hand soap. There is a nearby Dollar General store (8 minutes away) for additional needs.
Washer and dryer for your laundry needs.

Security: For safety reasons, there is a ring style exterior security camera that is not monitored but records video and sound 24/7. The camera is motion-activated and overlooks the entrance and driveway to the lodge.
