Lodge Policy:

We want you to have a wonderful time when you are here.

Pre-existing damages or room issues must be reported to the customer support immediately after registration to avoid responsibility and potential charges. The lodge allows guests, with permission, to receive occasional packages and special deliveries at the property but MUST get approval first from customer support. We are not responsible for the packages or their contents or the storage of them. Sing your heart out and have passionate conversation all day long, but from 10:00 p.m. to 8:00 a.m. the whole property goes into hush mode for what we like to call quiet time (or sleep time). Violation of this policy can result in your reservation being canceled and additional fees may apply.
