Hotel overview

Located on the serene banks of Jordans Lake and just across from Bonclarken Lake, this 3-star lodge offers a relaxed, rustic atmosphere with casual suites designed for comfort. Each room features kitchenettes and private porches overlooking tranquil water views, encouraging guests to unwind in a peaceful setting away from urban bustle. An outdoor pool and picnic area enhance the experience for families and travelers seeking simple pleasures.

The lodge is situated 0.6 miles from the Flat Rock Playhouse, placing it close to cultural exploration and local arts.

“It's so peaceful and beautiful. It's got a family-like atmosphere. The people are super friendly and quite amicable. No loud parties or groups of kids screaming the pool. It's exactly what i was hoping for. The rooms have definitely been used and they aren't five star hitel material but I was looking for other qualities and found it. Rarely stay in the room. Great little kitchenette. Definitely coming back again.”

“Quiet little spot within walking distance to downtown Flat Rock. We stayed in one of the newly renovated deluxe suites. It was close to the pool, which was great for the kids and had a private balcony out back overlooking the pond. The suite was very clean when we arrived with a well stocked full kitchen. The pool was clean and cool and the canoes were great for some relaxing fun. Due to Covid-19 there was no breakfast or maid service. It would have been nice to have a broom or swiffer to get the sand and crumbs off the floor. The pool closes at 9 but the last night there were a few very, very loud families at the pool until after 11. We were close to several waterfalls for hiking and cute downtowns for wondering around. Overall we enjoyed our stay.”

“Stayed here in March 2017 in one of the rooms along the pond. Always when entering a hotel room and assessing the cleanliness I think - what would my grandma think? She would have loved it! Very clean, very nice. Rustic ambience was my favorite part, along with having my morning coffee on the deck! Will definitely come back.”
