Tim purchased this property in 2014 and proceeded to clean it up, remodel the lodge, build the noise wall, construct glamping tents, build the cabins, complete the infrastructure and open it up to wonderful people. Nearly all of our guests are people who love the land, love the country, love the opportunities, love their fellow man and respect everyone they come in contact with.
