In addition to exploring all our stunning area has to offer, there’s quite a bit of fun and relaxing to be had right here at the Lodge. Enjoy the outside deck right by the water, or visiting with friends on the outdoor covered lounge area watching the wildlife pass by.  Nothing ends a perfect day in the area more than sitting around the private camp fire at your cabin.

In addition, bird watching has reached new heights at the Starratt Wildlife Sanctuary.

An interpretive trail, maintained by a local hiking and trail club, explains the many plants and animals found here, as it winds through and around the marshlands.A knowledgeable guide will steer you through the marsh and point out hidden nests of goslings, beaver lodges built of sticks and mud, and show you a world unseen by many.

We’re also a Hummingbird heaven. While we always have many of these precious birds calling the lodge home for the summer, we were amazed at the number this summer. Once the babies were born, there was approximately 70 birds buzzing about. They are very active and entertaining to watch as they chase each other away from one of the 5 feeders, of which we fill several times a day. They’re very busy, and they keep us busy too.
