Can I host an event there?

We don’t book the Lodge out for events. However, if you are booking a 4 night, or longer, stay you could certainly host a small event like a baby-shower, rehearsal dinner, birthday party, etc with registered guests. Maximum occupancy at anytime is 20 persons under county regulations. If the occupancy exceeds 20 people at any point in time, unregistered guests will be asked to leave the premises.
