Whistle and Quill Lodge
Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'
Over the river and through the woods to Whistle and Quill Lodge we go! Newly renovated and nestled near the Savage River State Forest, Jennings Randolph Lake, and Backbone Mountain, this lovely home is the perfect escape for outdoor lovers and adventure enthusiasts alike.
Surrounded by the tranquil sounds of the forest, the outdoor space offers pure peace. Dine alfresco on the balcony, fire up the gas grill for a barbecue, and gather around the firepit as night falls for cozy conversations under the stars.
Inside, the first level of the home features a full kitchen with elegant marble countertops and stainless steel appliances. Adjacent to the kitchen, the open-concept living room invites relaxation with plenty of seating, a wood-burning fireplace, a large TV, and stunning views of the wooded mountains. Three of the home's bedrooms are located on this floor, each beautifully decorated with wilderness-inspired touches, abundant natural light, and comfortable linens. Off the primary bedroom, you'll find a luxurious jacuzzi tub with TV access—perfect for a relaxing soak while streaming your favorite shows.
The lower level is designed for entertainment, featuring a family room complete with a foosball table, air hockey table, bar, and a cozy wood stove. You'll also find a designated office space, a separate laundry room, and an additional spacious bedroom on this level.
As the sun sets over the mountains, step outside for mesmerizing stargazing, making your stay at Whistle and Quill Lodge truly unforgettable.
