More Lodge Progress

The Main Lodge is coming along beautifully! It is alittle behind schedule unfortunately but making progress daily. They thought it would be done mid-Nov but has been pushed to the end of Dec now. It is a bummer that we will miss the entire Christmas season of rentals, but I would rather it all be done right.

They have started painting the Lodge and it is starting to look like it's old self again...only nicer. They poured the concrete stairs and ramp in the back porch area and have started re-laying the stones. They have intalled the walk-in fridge AND freezers and they are huge!

Going, Going, Gone

We had a large piece of history come down. Behind the Main Lodge we had a Big Oak tree that had died and was making us nervous with all the new construction. We called out East Valley Tree and they did a fantastic job of safely removing the tree without any damage to the surrounding buildings. They then carved the stump into a chair so that campers can continue to enjoy the Big Oak in a different way for many years to come! They also took down a big pine behind the Mountain View Lodge and a few other trees around the property for safety.
