The Lodge overlooking the lake is fully furnished and has high speed WiFi, 11 bedrooms that sleep 46 people, a great room, livingroom, kitchen, and laundry room along with 5 bathrooms (2 of them are higher capacity).

The Event Center sits next to the lodge and captures the full view of the lake and picture perfect, waterfront sunsets! Inside the event center is a full court gym for basketball, volleyball, pickleball, and more…

The basketball hoops fold up and the 3 huge barn doors of the gym open up to the 80x60 patio outside to create the perfect indoor/ outdoor barn wedding space. Also in the event center are bathrooms, catering kitchen, and 2 high capacity dorm rooms that sleep 27 people each.

Outside the Event Center is an acre worth of parking, and next to that is a sports field for soccer, football, baseball, kickball, volleyball, gaga ball, archery, tug o war pit and several other fun activities!
