The photo of the porch / rocking chair just increases tenfold my desire to be up at the lodge, but as reservation cancellations are very rare this time of year, I'll have to be content to look at the photo; Sure is appealing ! From the residual moisture on the porch floor it appears that if one had been in the chair at the time, the rain may have forced one to retreat inside, still a nice place.

When I first glanced at this photo I thought it was my cabin, No. 9 at the other end of the row, but, yes, it's the one next to the walkway coming in; I agree with Deborah in that it would be an excellent spot from which to speak with and greet incoming, even outgoing, guests. I must request and try this cabin for one of my next year's visits.
