To be honest, we weren’t sold on using this place as a conference center until we got there. Then, It was all glowing reviews. The food was OUTSTANDING! The staff was so sweet (Thank you Julie & Stephanie!) Every need or problem was taken care of for us, with so much grace & ease. Before we left, we were already planning next year. Thank you again for a great conference!

We came for a business meeting, had overnight accommodations, and went on an upland hunt the following morning. Great space to host a meeting. The Original Lodge was a great place for us all to stay. I was very impressed with the meals that were served. I was also extremely impressed to have a prayer before meals. The upland bird hunt was a lot of fun. Lots of birds, our guide was great, the dogs worked perfect and we had a lot of shooting! Feb 15-16, 2022

I helped facilitate strategic planning for a local electric cooperative. This was an excellent venue for planning in a private yet beautiful facility.  Meeting room was excellent along with whiteboards, video projection, wall space, etc.  The food was excellent home cooking.

This place was beautiful--well kept, private, and such a nice getaway for a work conference. The staff was the best and the food was beyond delicious. What a neat getaway place. The decor was so well done. My room was perfectly decorated, clean, and comfortable. Can not say enough about the fresh, delicious, home cooked meals we enjoyed. Was the best chicken pot pie I ever had. Every meal was better than the next.

It was nothing but perfect. The food was hands down the best. Will return when appropriate.

The stay was unbelievable, couldn't ask for anything nicer!  Wow, is all I can say.  Hunter who helped with our sporting clays was a hoot! Good job guys!

Beautiful, super clean accommodations, my room was fabulous as was the entire lodge. The staff was the friendliest I've ever experienced.  The lady at check-in/front office and everyone at the dining hall.  The food was so good! This visit exceeded all of my expectations! Would love to come back with family!

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay during our staff retreat! So much so that I would love to return on a personal trip. I also appreciated the hayrack ride to see the Mississippi Valley.
