This lodge is perfect for a large group. We had 15 of various ages. Everyone loved it. It’s close to French Lick as the crow flies, takes about 20 minutes to get in town because of the roads, but worth the drive! The owners are very attentive should you have any questions or concerns.
5.0
The 12 beds worked great for our group of 12 golfers. The kitchen also worked great for feeding the crew.
The seven beds in the basement worked fine but a few too many snorers in the same space could benefit from sound barriers (walls).
Overall we had a great stay and a few of us played on the par 3 and played some ping pong. If you have an event that requires timing 12 showers all close together, be wary of potential low water pressure. Owners were very responsive and great to work with.
We would definitely come back.

This venue was perfect for our family getaway. Our teenaged grandkids loved the recreation area. The deer were a joy to watch as was hiking in the area.

The cabin was very large, updated, clean & nicely appointed with all the amenities you'd need. There is a lot of common space to spread out and plenty of sleeping quarters. It's in a very private wooded area with deer roaming the property. A perfect place for a family vacation. Owners were exceedingly responsive and helpful with any questions we had. I highly recommend this property!

We had so much fun as a family! The boys got to golf while the ladies got to visit local wineries. We got to sit around the kitchen table and play games. It was a great spot for a large family like ours!
4.0
Unfortunately the property was fenced off during our stay due to raising deer. It was nice seeing the deer but didn’t allow use of the back yard. The out building was disappointing because there were no lights or air conditioning. The house was rustic and appropriately decorated. It was perfect size for our family. Plenty of room for everyone. Just a word of advice about the stairs leading up to the upstairs bedrooms. My 26 year old granddaughter slipped coming down and bruised her hip and arm. My grandson was bitten by a spider (we don’t know if it was on porch or in house) and had to be treated with antibiotics when we got home.

We had a large group come for a weekend to Elk Ridge. The lodge is very nice. Plenty of different comfortable sleeping areas and a great stocked kitchen. It is very remote, tucked in the woods with plenty of privacy. Large wrap around decks with nice views. The owners are FANTASTIC! Very helpful/prompt with any issues that may arise. Two things future guests should know that are out of control of the owners - The outside is buggy. It is part of a farm so if you are not use to it bring repellant. The driveway is gravel and steep. Our vehicles did not have problems but it is a little tricky. Overall, a Wonderful Stay!

The house was what I expected from the listing. I wanted somewhere that I could take my kids and grandkids where we could all be together. Lots to do to keep everyone busy. The owners raise deer on the property and it was special to see them roaming near the house at feeding time.

Great Family Spot
Great spot out in the woods! We have a large family and were all able to stay comfortably! Plenty of bathrooms and bedrooms. The kids loved the basement set up where they all stayed. The owners are very helpful and were easy to get ahold of. The entire family enjoyed the place (even the teenagers). We would definitely go back!

The owners are absolutely wonderful people! The property was beautiful and the house and all of its amenities could not have been any better. Would I recommend this to everyone, I absolutely would. Cannot go wrong with this place. I will return again! Thank you again Dave and Wendy for a wonderful experience.

Our group was 10 men taking a golf weekend. We played at Sultan's Run (which I also recommend) during the day and hung out at the lodge and barn in the evenings. Great place to stay!

Our ski trip to Paoli Peaks
House is great! Lots of room for everyone. Well accommodated!
Everyone also really liked the big shed game room!! The hibachi grill inside came in handy for cooking for our group of 7adults and 6 kids! Only issue was steep driveway needed more rock.
Would definitely go back!!

January Pastor's Retreat
Dave (owner) was helpful and hospitable. The property had many accommodations (e.g. gym, pizza oven, ax-throwing, and just fantastic scenery) that due to our team's agenda weren't able to enjoy BUT our plan is to come back. House was spacious and helpful/accommodating for large groups. Thankful for the restful space and time away.

Excellent vacation!
Excellent time! Very easy to communicate with owners. Perhaps a little attention to minor maintenance issues, but nothing hindered the wonderful location/property. Would be excited to return in the future. Overall, great experience.

We will be back
Our group of friends wated to take our children to the French lick indoor waterpark. The hotel didn’t offer the space we needed to be able to hang out together so I looked into other options and found this house. It worked out MUCH better! Easy drive to the water park but still had the convenience of the home to hang out together. We throughly enjoyed the hibachi grill and quite more - the help of the owner. Dave is a great man and was there at any moment to assist us with the house or to show us his property he takes much pride in! Wendy was excellent to work with as well. My husband doesn’t particularly like going on vacation but we will be back- thanks to Dave!
