We stayed for 4 nights for my son and daughter in laws wedding. It was really nice having The Lodge right next to the venue. Beautiful place and location. Only real issue was the down stairs air conditioning worked just so so. Temps were approx. 80 degrees so not bad at all. Up stairs worked excellent. Other than that, the home is beautiful, very comfortable and communication was excellent. Thanks Rebekah, Rick
