About this property
Manor Lodge at Camp Because I Said I Would
Summary:
Our Main Lodge: 8500 sq ft, sleeps 35 in 7 bedrooms with 7.5 baths, 2 kitchens. Amenities include private hot tub, cedar sauna, and Escape Room (extra fee). Ideal for large groups, family reunions, or corporate retreats. Features lounges with fireplaces, saloon wet bars, game room, fully equipped kitchens, banquet and dining rooms, porch with rockers, screened porch, commercial sauna, and deck overlooking woods. Suitable for corporate retreats, weddings, and private parties.
The Space:
Camp Because I said I would is owned by a charity, so 100% of our fees go to our nonprofit. Because I said I would is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization and we have programs for families in bereavement at this camp. However, we rent our 5 resort cabins during downtime to generate funding for the charity!
Our 92-acre camp and retreat center is in the heart of Amish Country in Knox County where it is very peaceful, private and quiet. Our property features a 1.5-acre swimming and fishing lake (seasonal), a 2-acre vineyard, 1-mile of privately-owned canopied forest trails and a Recreation Library full of over 100 board games, 400 Blu-Ray movies, kites, boomerangs, bocce ball, other yard games and so much more! All of it is free to use for our guests. We are so much more than just a place to sleep!
Guest Access:
Guests access this cabin from our second driveway and a property map is provided after booking. We have digital keypad access! Please note you have to drive down a gravel road for about a half mile to get to our property. There are 2 parking spots for cars right next to the cabin, but more parking is available on our property if you are OK with walking a bit.
Other Things to Note:
If you are interested in booking multiple cabins, we have 5 cabins with a total of 16 bedrooms and 13 baths. We have 5 hot tubs on the property, so every cabin gets its own 😊 If you have any other questions, please let us know! Thank you for your interest in a cozy stay, but also for the impact your cabin rental fees have in supporting our charity and the families in bereavement we serve.
Interaction with Guests:
There is a property employee staffed every night. There is a Guest Support Textline to help you during your stay with a response time of around 1-hour or less.
