We had the most fantastic time at the lodge! The space itself is amazing, the pool, the game tables, and the beautiful property made it such a fun and easy place to host a retreat. The staff were incredible, and the initial tour helped everyone get settled quickly and feel comfortable right away. Logan and Dustin were so warm and helpful throughout the entire process, which made organizing everything seamless. Truly glowing reviews from every single person who attended, we couldn’t have asked for a better place to host an event.

We had such a wonderful stay! Dustin and Logan were incredibly friendly and always available to answer any questions we had, which made the whole experience so smooth and stress-free. Their hospitality went above and beyond, and you can really tell they care about their guests. We’d love to come back again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a great place to stay!

Excellent Experience - Guys Trip

The property and staff were great! We had a large group of guys and the staff and owner were very hands on and accommodating. The staff served a great bbq dinner the day of our arrival. They also took us on a guided fishing trip. Would highly recommend booking here. We’ll be back!

We have seven families that get together for Spring Break, and we had the privilege to stay at The Lodge at Rush Lakes this year. It is usually challenging to find a single house that can accommodate our group of 14 adults and 23 kids, but we got lucky finding this property. Logan & Dustin were great to work with and very responsive. They provided us with a tour of the wildlife preserve, which was amazing. No fault to them, but it was a bit chilly while we were there, but the indoor pool house, movie theater, shuffleboard, as well as the pool table, kept us entertained. Not having to walk outside and utilizing the tunnels was really nice. Dustin connected me to their Sonos system, so we were able to utilize the speakers in the house. We were able to grill in the covered patio, which came in handy one day. Everyone was sad to leave at the end of the trip, but we hope to return in the near future.

Amazing property in good repair

I've stayed in many vacation rentals that advertise lots of amenities, and usually they look good in the pictures but aren't well kept. They are often dirty or broken or just low quality. This place is not that. It's immaculately kept. All the amenities are in good repair and good quality - the pool, lake, dock, boats, pool table, theater room, etc. We had about 30 people staying here for a family vacation and there was so much to do with such a great combination of private space and common areas that we didn't have to leave the property at all. The grounds are beautiful. We had an amazing time. The staff was extremely responsive to any issues that came up. This place is basically a private resort / camp ground. I don't think there are many places like this that are available to rent. It's unique.

Amazing Property! Amazing Memories!

My entire family rented this property for a long weekend. There were 31 of us, adults, kids and teenagers and not one time did we feel on top of each other. There was so much space and so much for the kids to do. From the indoor pool to fishing on the pontoon boat and playing basketball on the court - no one was ever board. Logan and Dustin were amazing hosts. They were so responsive and helpful the entire weekend. Dustin even took my dad out fishing on two of the three lakes on the property and my father was in heaven! They have thought of everything from the toiletries in the bathrooms to the many kitchen details - all of which made our stay easy and memorable. If we needed another table, they brought it. If we needed help with the home theater, they answered our call. The grounds are gorgeous and perfect for a wedding and reception. The bridal suite in the main lodge was fantastic with it's own laundry room, exquisite bathroom, living room with fireplace and it's own personal kitchen. Every single detail was considered and each living area is super clean and updated. You will not be disappointed with this property.

After 15 years in corporate America, I acquired The Lodge and recruited my childhood best friend to join me, in dedicating our lives to the upkeep of the wildlife preserve on our grounds. The staff and I have curated a truly unique experience by incorporating things we've enjoyed from outdoor excursions all over the world.
