The Fern Lodge

Many thanks to Wendy and Sasha for their hospitality, taking care of a family of 11 for a long weekend. The lodge is in a quiet location on Friendly Lake. All the regular hotel room amenities with added bonus of hot tub, sauna, games room and use of canoes and kayaks for use on the lake.

Beautiful property!

They really do think of everything. The details are great and it’s the little things that push The Fern Lodge over the top. The property is very well maintained and super clean. There are so many places to relax with great access and views of the pristine lake. I highly recommend it.

Breakfast was wonderful!

The weekend was fabulous! This was a return trip for us and will definitely return again. Wendy is a wonderful host,as was Sasha. They make you feel as if this were your home. Breakfast as always was delicious and so considerate of our different tastes and needs. Sharon and Greg continue to create a warm and friendly atmosphere and are very helpful with suggestions as to what to do each day. The Fern Lodge is the place to go to get away and get spoiled!

I am writing this review because my wife’s review (written immediately after our stay) was inexplicably removed. That suggests that negative reviews are being deleted from the site. Last summer, my wife and I stayed here. We booked one of the best rooms in the inn (by my recollection something akin to a bridal suite). The room strangely had an interior door/window that overlooked the main room. That oddity was not apparent in the inn’s pictures. There was a nice screened in area overlooking the opposite direction from the lake. Given, the price point and great reviews, we expected an exceptional experience. The inn provided far less. The structure itself is quite impressive. However, the remaining aspects were mediocre. The breakfast was below par. Only weak drip coffee was available. The juice was standard juice that one would pick up at any grocery store. The chopped fruit supplied was exceptionally small. Some fried eggs were actually nicely cooked. The bedding and towels were of mediocre quality and not terribly new. Small things like the tissues and toilet paper were below average in quality. Overall, it felt like a holiday-inn grade experience embedded within a beautifully constructed building. We left feeling that this inn is far from what it appears to be.

The Fern Lodge is truly luxury. The room, lodge, accommodations, breakfast and location are exceptional. The inn keeper Wendy is warm and welcoming. She knows the area well and pays attention to every detail. We are so grateful that we found this slice of paradise. Thank you for treating us like family.

Very beautiful location, offering many secluded areas to sit, relax and de-stress with your partner. Wendy is an amazing hostess, going out of her way to help you enjoy your time at the lodge. There are 2 Tesla level 2 charging stations and the lodge has adapters for other vehicles.

Celebrated my birthday weekend in this Beautiful lodge! What made it extra special is Wendy who goes the extra mile to make sure everyone is happy and taken care of! Would highly recommend
