It is truly something special to get away from the normal stresses of daily life and relax with friends and family or celebrate a special occasion.

Anderson Lodge has two separate facilities for your next event: the Main Lodge and the Hilltop House. You choose which facility best fits your needs.

What makes us special is our homey atmosphere, personal service and our one-group-at-a-time policy. You will notice hints of Scandinavia everywhere you look.

Our mission is to make your event a success in every way. Therefore, we provide exclusive use of our facility for all our groups. Get away from it all at Anderson Lodge in Scandinavian style.
