About this property
B-Well Rafter J Lodge: A Family Gathering Place
"Absolutely AMAZING!
This property is wonderful-- comfortable, tons of space, so much fun.. every amenity imaginable. Also; the owner is very accommodating, open to communication and so very sweet! My dogs loved this property as well-- the lay out is perfect for pets. Will definitely return. This property and ownership should be a model for all else to follow." -Debbie Elayne S
"...The property easily accommodated 3 couples and 3 grandchildren under 3. The property could have easily accommodated another adult couple. Every one had their own bathroom and television in their room. The kitchen had everything one might need to make meals. My family took advantage of the washer and dryer to clean kids clothes. The property had a nice game room for entertaining. The backyard was very nice and well lit at night. We chose the property because it was a little more secluded and not in town, but still close to shopping and restaurants." - Brady

Relax with the whole family at this peaceful country home. Rafter J Lodge feels like rustic luxury, on a private 1 acre tree covered property. All bedrooms have King size beds. Each bedroom has its own full bathroom, TV, and ceiling fans. Full service kitchen with island and dining table. Two living areas plus laundry room with washer, dryer, ironing station and scrub sink. There is a large dog run on the south side of the house with tons of shade and room to run for your furry friends.
