Reviewer Comments:
Grand Lodge is perfect for large gatherings and is well provisioned. Only think missing is a crockpot! The location is close to a lot more than I would have thought - the Foodland next to the DGMarket (15 minutes) is very good as is Son's down in Jasper, 30 minutes. There is also a butcher before you get to Son's. The kitchen is awesome and the bedroom set is very good and a rarity of the lake, a screened in porch! The water is clear and comfy, but be aware that Friday afternoon thru Sunday traffic in the summer is very busy around the point the house is on. Gets a bit choppy, but our older 6 year old grandchild and her siblings and cousins had no issues. The view more than makes up for this! The house does need some cosmetic love as other reviewers have noted, but the place was clean when we arrived and we left it that way too. Garbage is limited to one can at this time, very odd for a large house like this but SLP told us other cans are on the way. Dumpsters are in the area, like at the Texaco and Ace Hardware. Just go in and ask. Duncan Marian and the smith lake pontoon rentals were awesome too. Best swimming hole on the lake is the next slue north on the east side marked by a dock with orange/red canopy. Go to the back of that slue and you will be in a pool surrounded by rock cliffs.
