Homestead Lodge
The large two story red brick antebellum portion of the facility was built in 1848. An extensive remodeling and expansion project was completed in October 2001.
The Homestead Lodge is a great facility for corporate, quilting and scrap-booking retreats, class reunions, weddings, baby showers, rehearsal dinners, and many other types of meetings and receptions.
Make Yourself at Home
The fully certified kitchen is available to prepare delicious, home-cooked meals. The lodge has quickly become a popular destination for a wide variety of special events. The dining room seats up to 36 guests and offers spectacular views of the surrounding countryside. The Homestead Lodge features a two-story stone fireplace built with stones carved from the river bluff by Seaman Sprague for his farmhouse in the mid-1800’s.
