Zephyr Lodge is an incredible and unique venue!
I attended a music event which took place there a few weeks ago. The setting was just AMAZING! We were personally invited by the musical talent, Allen Stone, to attend this private event.
Dan and his new team (I am told Zephyr is under new management as of just a few weeks ago) did an amazing job of making the Lodge feel comfortable for everyone. They thought of everything! It was unlike any other musical event, or any other event for that matter, that I have been to (and I have been to many!).
We all stayed onsite in the lodge and surrounding cabins, it was like a big camp for adults! Dinner and breakfast was catered by Catered For You (SOOO yummy) and there were bands & musicians that flew in from LA and Sweden just to be at this event. We felt so honored to have been invited and included.
The unique and rustic/ Wes Anderson style vibe of the lodge really suited the event. We brought our lawn chairs and blankets and just sat on the grass meadow over looking the lake listening to music for hours. It was so amazing.
I'm so glad that someone has bought this incredible place and is using it in a way that really elevates its natural charm and beauty. This would be an incredible wedding venue, retreat or music venue. I can't wait to go back! I'm hoping to book a night or two to stay in the lodge in winter, if that's a possibility.
I read a previous review that said this place was poorly run and they had issues with the staff there. This was not our experience at all! I understand the nature of the property is a little more rustic, but this adds to the charm. I spoke with the owner and he said they have been doing extensive work to restore the lodge back to its original state. Anyone who books this venue is aware of it's natural beauty and quirks. It's definitely not the Davenport, but I don't think that's what they are going for.
I HIGHLY recommend this place! I spoke with the new Events Coordinator there about maybe hosting an event there myself (yoga retreat) and Tara was super accommodating and helpful.
If anyone is looking to book this place, get in touch with her, she's great! read more
