The lodge has simple but very pleasant rooms in the weathered main house and others in nearby cottages, but the real joy is the fantastic location, high in the Northern Range, and the increased access to Asa Wright's attractions. Rates include three ample meals a day, afternoon tea and rum punch each evening, and all the birdwatching your heart desires.
