With 11 adults and 10 children under the age of 11, it is difficult to find a place to vacation but this was suitable to our needs and we had a blast! Will plan on returning next year. ##### Erika W.

We really enjoyed our stay. We had a group of 20. Able to sleep comfortably because majority of group were children who took advantage of the twin beds / cots on 2nd level. Really enjoyed the horse riding. Even got to see them run free on the property on our last morning. Eager to come back in the summer and make use of the large pool! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Trish H.

We enjoyed the new pool, kayaking & fishing on the lake, billiards, foosball and more. The owners were very friendly and helpful. It was extremely hot the weekend we visited and the A/C had no problem keeping up. We were able to use the upstairs sleeping spaces with no problem. We hope to return again next year! ##### Trish H.

Communication was a bit hard since it could only be done in person at the neighboring country store (some of our VRBO messages didn't get answers). Also we had to buy some of our own cleaning products like paper towels which seemed a bit weird. But the place was fun and had lots to do. ##### Rudy S.

Lake was beautiful. Overall we were very pleased with everything. (Minor things - ovens were a little frustrating. May just need more instructions but had some trouble baking things. Needed more trash bags - we used some of our own. Need wash rags for the bathrooms and lots more kitchen towels please!) ##### Patricia C. Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### FAith W. Jun 3, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful place to make memories with large group We had a large group of family and friends visit and stay in the lodge for 3 nights. Everything was very clean. The lodge is an incredible and fun space for all ages. Pros: Large well stocked kitchen with multiple sinks made meal prep easy. The game room in the back was where the kids spent most of their time and they loved it. Plenty of space to all eat together indoors or out. The lake was a big hit. Great fishing docks, kayaks and paddle boats on site for a small fee. The kids loved, jumping off the dock and swimming to the small beach area (kind of Sandy, but rocky so make sure you have water shoes) It’s just an absolutely gorgeous property for sitting and watching the horses and the cows play. Cons: The 2 bedrooms on the main level were nice and cool, but the 3 bedrooms upstairs were pretty warm. There are a few fans, which were helpful at keeping us cool. Steep spiral staircases are your only access upstairs, FYI. The large gas stove was not working, but there was another electric stove/oven in the kitchenWe were informed a few days before our arrival that the pool was in disrepair and would not be available. We were offered a 20% discount, which we felt was reasonable considering there was another swimming option on the property. Though you will need to pack your things up and drive to the lake, and there were some people in our party that are not ok the swimming in brown water In all, considering the discount we felt happy. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/389ad0fc-b411-4e7b-b761-ee5eaa1d380b-1748971853083.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/6ae0b52b-a303-4623-bcb5-2c8e7189bbeb-1748971857869.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/6a182ecd-ca74-4649-b5aa-adbc01b3a111-1748971853291.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/e3480a34-e37b-41c4-a7fe-cd28ab5e63ae-1748971852288.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### FAith W.

With 4 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms, plus extra sleeping space that really makes it 5+ bedrooms, our 4 siblings, spouses, and kids of various ages never felt crowded. The rec room was huge, and the kitchen/dining/outdoor patio spaces were perfect for group gatherings. The private pool was a nice amenity as well, and one suggestion would be to add several umbrellas for shade. We met the owners and the guys taking care of the horses--everyone was so friendly. Our kids really enjoyed being in the country and having animals all around. They thoroughly enjoyed horseback riding too. The docks and gathering spaces at the lake were in walking distance and are very nice too, but we spent most of the time at the house and pool to enjoy family time. ##### Ang A. Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2021 ### 4/10 Poor #### Michele S. Jul 19, 2024 Liked: Check-in Disliked: Cleanliness, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Pictures very deceiving Not enough space to say what I want to say. Upstairs where sleeping accommodations are is disgustingly nasty! Was told by own AFTER paying almost $5k that they are “renovating”. Pool table is old and torn up. Unable to use at all. The swimming pool is old and needs work. The bottom is all scraped and chipped with bugs floating all over. The downstairs interior of the home is pretty and the kitchen was stocked as promised but that was probably the only truth to the description on this site. Not worth the $5k that we paid for our family vacation and if there is any way to get even a partial refund please tell me! Definitely think twice or ask for updated pictures before booking. The promised accommodations was a huge part of why we booked here. Very disappointed. ##### Michele S. Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### April S. Jul 16, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### 50th Anniversary Celebration 8 adults & 5 kids age 9-12. So happy with our stay. The kids had an incredible time and we know it’s a trip they will remember forever! The lodge is spacious with many options for sleeping, dining & entertainment. Awesome kitchen! So many FULL bathrooms! Pool was clean and well taken care of. The kids had a blast at the beach & dock. Beautiful lake for fishing, hiking & kayaking! The store is right across the street from the lodge and was so convenient. Basics items available. Anytime we needed anything (extra towels, soap, etc) we were able to ask for it at the store. The few things that we did not love were: The bathhouse @ the pool. It was in pretty bad shape & unusable. The pool table is in need of some major TLC. The large commercial stove was unplugged when we arrived, and once we plugged it in, we found out why. The oven part did not turn off without unplugging it. \*\*the three things listed above we DID NOT bring to their attention. I imagine if we had done so, they may have addressed. Note: two bedrooms, and the additional sleeping areas are upstairs only accessible by two VERY narrow spiral staircases. There was a storm while we were there & ALL of Potosi lost power for quite a while! With the generators, free water, ice and quick work from the owners to reroute our fridge to the generator, we felt like the luckiest people in Potosi! Overall, we loved our getaway at the lodge and were impressed by the responsiveness of the owners. Thank you! ##### April S. Stayed 5 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michelle C.

Pool is just steps from house. Lake is short drive (or walk) up the hill. Kitchen is amazing. Dining area was great for our large group. So fun, the kids loved it. ##### Emily P.

The lake is a short walk and nice docks to enjoy swimming and kayaking. The stocked kitchen, gas grill, and fire pit provide all you need to prepare meals. There is plenty of room and okay beds. The two kings are in the master and the other first floor bedroom has a full and bunk beds. The other beds are up spiral stairs. Rooms have small steps or a few steps as you go room to room. The upstairs air conditioning was not working when we arrived and the owners ensured it was working that night and are very nice. Phone service is spotty. The kitchen and game room is amazing! The lake and docks are beautiful and nice trail around the lake. The private pool is huge and so nice to have a hot tub too! Great family fun with all the room you need and several things to do! ##### Jennifer P. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Will F.

It took a minute to absorb the surroundings and uniqueness of the property (it was an old bison ranch) but once we did we had a great time. The lake was beautiful, it was clean spring fed and made for great swimming, kayaking and fishing. We spent the days at the lake and the evenings at the house playing kickball and other games around the property and in the large gathering spaces inside. We used the pool on a busier lake day but the lake was definitely our preference. The property is a cross between modern updates and parts frozen in time from the thriving place it was in its time. There is a history of one of the previous family owners in the library that is definitely worth a read. Plenty of beds for all of us and the kids enjoyed their stay in the loft. The managers were very laid back, accommodating and great to interact with. A unique but wonderful family vacation, we’ll be telling stories about it for years to come. ##### Will F.

We are all family members. Our family hadn’t gotten together in one place since Christmas of 2019, due to the pandemic concerns. We had a great time at the Spring Lake Lodge. It had plenty of space for use to sleep, play indoor and outdoor games and divide up into separate areas (without bother either group). The kitchen and dining room space is awesome with space to spare for our large group. We really enjoyed the large game room. The pool and lake we good for swimming and relaxing in the sun. Overall we think the lodge is a great accommodation and look forward to future when we can rent the lodge again. ##### Steve H.
