The Old Lodge
67 m² • 60 receptions • 60 theatres • 40 classrooms • 50 banquets
The Old Lodge is truly the “old Lodge” and was built in 1932. The room maintains its original charm with a large stone fireplace, hardwood floors, wood paneling and comfortable couches and easy chairs. Groups use the Old Lodge for breakout sessions. We’re happy to move the furniture around for theater style seating and move a projector and screen into the room. The best use of the Old Lodge is for evening social hours. In warm weather, guests can filter out onto the spacious deck. The Old Lodge also connects to the Cathedral room to provide more socializing space for large groups. There are two pianos in the room, so encourage the pianists in your group to put on an impromptu concert!
