Grand Lodge Arley
The property is beautiful and well appointed. The only thing I would suggest is it could be cleaner, especially the kitchen. It was very dusty and the cabinets and drawers were not that clean. I am sure you are paying a cleaning company well and you may want to doa spot check. Also - no hot pads and need a few new cookie sheets(rusty.)
Great lake stay!
Our entire family (ages 1-63) loved this place! Great layout with big family areas and quiet areas for solitude. The outdoor areas were fantastic, with a grassy lawn, lots of trees, shallow areas for the younger kids to play in, a great dock for fishing and for the pontoon boat we remted, and multiple decks for viewing all of it! Duncan Bridge Marina was less than 10 minutes away.
Wonderful family venue.
Perfect size for our current family and dock was great for swimming, shade for enjoying views and breeze, and, obviously, docking the rented boat, which was a short distance from the Grand Lodge. Great time together.
Smith Lake College Graduation Weekend
Phenomenal weekend with family and friends!!!!
Wedding Stay
Hosted the bridal party for our daughters wedding, a total of 14 people. The property worked out great for us as a home base. Plenty of hot water, AC worked well, mostly on heat during our stay. Ample kitchen space on main level. Master B/B very nice and on main level away from other bedrooms located on lower and upper levels.
Jones and family
It was a great property. Kitchen was phenomenal. We had around 7 women cooking at once and it went great. There was some wear and tear on the property but all in all wonderful stay.
Fall break!
Beautiful and spacious property. Ideal for a gathering of multiple families.
Amazing house, incredible location!
The pictures don't do this beautiful house justice! The house is HUGE and incredibly well furnished. The downstairs is a movie room and game room that will keep you entertained for days! Kitchen is amazing, bedrooms are clean and comfortable. The dock is a great place to hang out, and the lake is crystal clear! I had high expectations for this house, and my expectations were exceeded!
