The Bedrooms:
Luxuriously appointed bedrooms are all different from one another, each is influenced by one of the beautiful local birds of the Ozarks. There are 7 bedrooms and a nursery, with a variety of room configurations, some with ensuite bathrooms, balconies, terraces, and all (but one) with a stunning lake view.
These are the lodge's sleeping areas: CARDINAL (sleeps 2-3) The only bedroom in the Upper East Wing of the lodge, the master bedroom has a King Bed, one Single Bed, balcony with table, chairs, and a stunning lake view. The Master bathroom is en suite, which has a freestanding egg bath complete with lake view, walk-in rainfall shower, twin sinks, and a walk-in wardrobe.
BLUE JAY (sleeps 2-4) Walk across to the Upper West Wing of the lodge, to the Blue Jay Master bedroom with a King Bed, 2 Single Beds, and French doors leading to the large deck with a panoramic lake view. The Bathroom is next door, and shared with the Goldfinch Room. It has a walk-in shower, single sink, and lake view window.
GOLDFINCH (sleeps 2-4) This room is adjoining the Blue Jay Room above so would work well for families that wis to be close together. Two Queen Canopy beds make this an elegant room for couples or children to share. This is the only bedroom which does not have a lake view, but it has a lovely view over the garden.
BALD EAGLE (sleeps 2-4) Now we take a trip downstairs to the Lower West Wing of the lodge. The bald eagle room has a striking monochromatic color scheme, a window with a Lake View, a King bed and 2 Single Beds. It connects to a large bathroom with bathtub/shower and twin sinks. The bathroom is also shared by the Bluebird Room which is next door.
BLUEBIRD (sleeps 2) The pretty iridescent blue tones of this room make this one a favorite. It has a great lake view, and a King bed so it is ideal for couples.
PELIATED WOODPECKER (sleeps 2) Walk across to the Lower West Wing of the lodge, and the Peliated Woodpecker Room is great for those who wish to be in the heart of the action. With the downstairs kitchen on one side, and the Games Room on the other, and a door leading to the lower deck and swimming pool, there is always something to do. The elegant iron canopy Queen bed makes it a romantic choice for couples. It is also closest to the nursery - so would be good for parents. The Peliated Woodpecker Room shares a bathroom with the Nursery and games room. The bathroom has a large walk-in rainfall shower and twin sinks.
ORIOLE (nursery sleeps 1-2) A whimsical room with a full size crib, toy chest and a small sofabed, perfectly designed for our younger guests.
HUMMINGBIRD (sleeps 4-6) The largest room in the house, with its own ensuite bathroom complete with twin rainfall shower, and twin sinks. There is a King Bed, bunk beds with one Full Bed and one Single Bed, plus a Queen sofabed. There are two sets of French doors which open out onto the Lower Deck and pool area.
GAMES ROOM (sleeps 2-4) The Games Room provides a fun setting with ample seating, large flatscreen TV for watching movies, and a stone fireplace. It also has a Queen sofabed, two Single sofabeds, and blackout curtains so it works very well as an extra bedroom. There are two sets of French doors which open out onto the Lower Deck and grass area. The bathroom is just a few steps away and has a large rainfall shower and twin sinks.
DOWNSTAIRS SITTING AREA (sleeps 1) There is a sleeper sofa in the sitting area by the downstairs kitchen which is suitable for 1 adult.

A great house for our family reunion of 30 people! Ample space for everyone. We spent a ton of time in the pool and rented a boat from local marina for a day. Kitchen is well stocked with what you need, host was responsive, house was as described and we would definitely return!
We booked this place to host our friends and family for our wedding! We absolutely LOVED the space, the views, and amenities! The host was absolutely amazing and handled any concerns we had! We have talked about booking this place in the future for our next gathering! I would highly recommend staying here!
Beautiful home and very spacious. Even with a few electrical hiccups and the storm rolling through and taking the power out, the property manager was very attentive. Only thing I would change would be a later checkout especially after an event.
Absolutely loved this house! So big, great for hosting a lot of people. The view is beautiful, the pool and bar area are great! I had my wedding here and absolutely loved it. They provide some decorations and honestly dont need much becuase the views are perfect! 10/10 recommend!
Our group had an amazing weekend at Equani Lodge. The beds were comfortable, the views from the main gathering space and the outside porches were inspiring, and the location was exactly what we needed.
A very beautiful house with lots of room and plentiful supplies! Beautiful setting on Lake Norfork! Manager responded to our needs in a timely fashion. Thank you, Sean!
This house couldn’t have been more perfect for our family reunion! It accommodated us perfectly, the view was stunning and with the pool, there was always something to do. We will definitely be back!

Thank you so much for your feedback Megan! Please come back and stay soon!
Our immediate family stayed at Equani Lodge and loved it!!! Heated pool was great and the owner’s advice to eat at the Grill at Whispering Woods was spot on. Spent a perfect day on Norfolk Lake too. Will definitely rent this property again!
So nice we stayed there twice! This huge home is perfect for active families who love to kick back in the pool, enjoy the marina and the lake nearby, make family style dinners, and play games or relax with a book. The bedrooms are beautiful and comfortable, and the bathrooms are nicer than the ones we have at our own homes!
This house was the perfect location and size for our family vacation. We were supposed to visit in the summer but our baby girl had other plans. We would have loved to take advantage of the pool but this just means we will need to visit again during warmer weather!!
5 families, 15 kids, 12 adults. We had a great time at this house. Big pool, great view, and all the room we needed. Short drive to the marina to jump in the boats.
Beautiful property that had everything we needed! Perfect for a lake wedding venue. Owners communicated very well! The lodge had everything we needed to entertain and plenty of space for everyone.
We hosted a small wedding weekend with our friends staying in the lodge and family a short drive away at the nearby resort. The Venue was exactly what we dreamed off with a beautiful view.

About the host
Hosted by Hilary Altman
We are a family with two young children, and we run a luxury travel company based in New York. We have been organizing tailor-made vacations around the world for 20 years, and as huge fans of Lake Norfork, we felt that there should be a luxury accommodation option in the area.
Why they chose this property
The area is completely unspoiled and natural with clean, clear water, and more wildlife than the Amazon!
What makes this property unique
Fantastic views of the lake, complete privacy of 11 acres and use of a private heated pool (April - October), hiking trail on property, lots of deck space and luxury accommodations and bathrooms. The marina is just 10 minutes away, from which you can rent a variety of boats and equipment to make sure you hit the lake in style.
