- Rates between $1200-$2100/week and $225-$450/night
- This is the perfect place for your group to enjoy being together, yet easily able to respect each other's privacy at the same time. Just think--The weekly (7 nights/8 day) peak rate of $2100 divided by 5 (bedrooms) = just $300 per week = $60/night per couple (or small family). That's cheaper than most of the local hotels! Plus, the Lodge includes a large dining room /kitchen, river frontage and 40 acres of private land , including 1/4 mile (both sides) of river front to explore! What a deal!
