An incredible lodge. Owner is working very hard to take a historical TB Sanitorium and create a wonderful lodge. Absolutely a great stay at an incredible place!!! Off the grid and would absolutely recommend for a quiet stay. Beautiful and the staff are great.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I love staying at places that have character and some history. I am also very tired of the cookie cutter large chain hotels & prefer to give my travel dollars to small business owners so the Historic Birch Lodge fit the bill. Our room was a bit small but the Hotel itself and the surrounding area was beautiful. My husband and I had a wonderful stay here and would definitely recommend.

One of the best motel and lodge we have ever stayed. Management was very good as he provided late check in option after closing time. Breakfast was limited but yes definitely they serve coffee and fresh baked muffins. Location was superb

We stayed for one night and enjoyed the quiet, serene and beautiful view of the lake. We find it hard to find a comfortable bed when we travel and found the bed to be very comfortable. I would recommend this place if you just need a "reset" and quiet surroundings.
