We vacationed at the Lodge for a week. There were six adults and four children (aged 2 -- 10), and we had plenty of space. The great room, screened porch (with an extra fridge), and especially the yard and beach area were great. As other reviewers have mentioned, the setting is wonderful - beautiful woods, private, and well kept. We were blessed with perfect weather all week, so there was swimming in the pond every day, and the paddle boats got a lot of use. Great place for kids to play. The kitchen was well stocked with cookware, utensils, and dishes (some of the knives were pretty dull though). The lodge was rustic, and a bit worn in some places, but all in all quite comfortable and "easy to live in." Definitely an excellent place for a family vacation.
