* Sleeping Areas *
This lodge has 7 spacious bedrooms! King mattresses in six rooms and blackout curtains make every room a great place to sleep.
The primary suite is a stunning private room on the main floor with a walk-in closet, sitting area with fireplace, walkout to the porch, and a two-person jet tub. It’s warm and cozy and romantic, with beautiful views into the backyard.
The second level has four bedrooms, each with a comfy king size bed. Two have additional loft beds. The Castle Room also contains trundle beds and is decorated for the kids.
Two of the bedrooms on the second floor share a full bathroom (and laundry space), a great layout if you’re sharing this lodge with multiple family units.
Both bedrooms in the walkout basement have sitting areas if you need some alone space, and one of the bedrooms includes a desk area for study or work.
All bedrooms are outfitted with comfortable mattresses and linens to ensure you have an enjoyable stay.
* The POOL! *
The pool is huge! It is 43ft by 21ft with a consistent depth of 42-44 inches of water throughout. The pool has an extended season of mid-May to early Oct (weather permitting and swimmers committing as it is not heated). The pool is fully fenced but is open water so please be extremely cautious! Additional pool rules are posted on the porch. We want you to have the best time and that means being safe!
* Game rooms: time for fun! *
This home has two separate game rooms. The large den downstairs has a pool table, large screen Roku TV, and foosball table. Upstairs, there is an air hockey table and a smaller Roku TV area. This room also has a study nook, and well-equipped workout area.
Guests can self-check in with an electronic keypad. Guests must be able to comfortably navigate stairs, as there are four front steps up to the front door (plus stairs to the upper and lower levels).
* Apple Canyon Lake Amenities Are Included - Woohoo! *
While staying with us you will have access to Apple Canyon Lake’s marina, beach, and pool. 16 guest passes and a parking pass are provided.
* Other buildings on the property *
Onsite is an 1850s schoolhouse and a large storage unit with long term storage rentals and future location of additional fun! Sorry, no access to either of these buildings (yet!) for your safety. Please stay off the schoolhouse porch, and don’t try to enter - this building needs some work! Currently, no access to the garage or the treehouse; the treehouse also needs a few modifications before it becomes kid safe.
Welcome to the country where the city is far and fun is near!
The neighborhood is farm and ranches with a mile or more between neighbors. There's no light pollution and access to town is just 5 miles away!
