Here’s why large groups consistently choose lodges for their holiday reunions and how they can elevate your festive celebrations.

1. Spacious Layouts for Comfort and Convenience

This is most certainly one of the reasons why lodges are especially helpful in the course of group gatherings, all thanks to the spacious ambiences provided to the visitors. Unlike standard hotel rooms, lodges are designed to accommodate multiple people comfortably, offering:

  • Multiple Bedrooms and Bathrooms: Lodges have several bedrooms and private bathrooms therefore accommodation is private for all guests. Hence this layout is suitable for those families which i.e. would like to have their own privacy but still be within the group.

  • Open Living Areas: The major staying areas are normally communal and communal arrangements to enable visitors to interact socially. These areas involve big soft seats as well as sofas, chimneys that offer a warm feeling, and television sets.

  • Fully-Equipped Kitchens: Feeding many people at once is only possible if the lodge is fitted with a full kitchen with up to date appliances and work space. This enables guests to prepare enjoyable end of the year meals together thus promoting homeliness.

2. A Home-Away-From-Home Atmosphere


Lodges follow a more natural and relaxed home like setting that makes the guest feel at ease. Such as wooden furniture, atmosphere lamps, and cushioned chairs make the place glow in the holiday season.



  • Fireplaces and Gathering Spots: Some lodges even have electric and wood burning fireplaces to keep the guests warm at night to prevent the freezing cold outdoors.

  • Game Rooms and Entertainment: Select lodges include entertainment amenities like game rooms, pool table, as well as board games to entertain guests in the lodge throughout the day or night.

Outdoor Spaces: Anchorage, gazebos and outdoor fire places are typical to the lodges, with views of the surrounding scenery and areas for group activities such as roasting marshmallows at night.

3. Cost-Effective for Large Groups


Accommodation for a large group means having to book several rooms in a hotel and this can be costly. However, lodges are relatively cheaper since they provide the group with a single house to stay in.


  • Shared Costs: This means that the costs of the lodge can be split among the group making it cheaper per head.

  • Savings on Meals: Since they are provided with a fully equipped kitchen, they can prepare their own food and this leads to saving on the food bills.

  • Amenities Included: Purchase options common for lodges are wi-fi, laundry and parking services for complimentary, making the stay even more enriching.

4. Privacy and Flexibility


While choosing hotels, one should know that lodges are perfect for organizing a stay for large groups because of the degree of privacy. There are no limitations on noise, and privacy is guaranteed meaning that guests can move in and out of spaces depending on their wish, unlike in hotels where everyone is standardized, and timelines are dictated.

  • Private Bedrooms: They can be allocated separate rooms within a house or a group of houses in order to get enough peaceful sleep with personal bedrooms.

  • Customized Schedules: Lodges make the guests fully independent with their meals, activities, and resting time schedules as opposed to hotels with specific meal times and restaurant opening and closing time.

  • Exclusive Use: It means that the entire property is going to be available to your group, and you will not have to change or adjust the plans regarding the use of the space.
