Remote and beautiful. The restaurant next door is a bonus as there are no shops really around. There were also electric blankets whoch was a huge bonus as it het super super cold at night. We ised the fireplace one night and it was really cozy. I would definitely go back!

We were never met by n staff member as noted on the information pages sent

Beautiful location and setting, and next door to the fantastic Blackhorse Brewery hotel for great restaurant options. The Porcupine lodge was very well furnished in a peaceful setting, highly recommended.

The roaming space and the river

Dante, Terry’s dog got rowdy with my friend and I. He barked aggressively at my friend and I when we were walking back to the house after dinner on Friday at the adjacent restaurant. Terry called Dante’s name to no success and he only barked louder. Terry apologised for Dante’s behaviour over text after my friend expressed her fear of dogs and promised to keep the dogs away while we were at the property. On Sunday… I went to read by the river. As I was walking back to the house, I saw Dante from a distance. I kept walking towards the house (I was excited to pat him because I had done so on Saturday when I met him after the incident). He started barking at me aggressively while standing still at a distance. I was simply walking and did not threaten him at all. I ignored the barking because dogs bark, it is what they do, I told myself (and I had met him the day before and all went well. I had no reason to be scared of him). His owner, Terry, called his name to no success. Not only was he now barking aggressively, but he was moving towards me in the same manner. It was at that moment that I got scared and imagined the possibility of him hurting me. Luckily, it did not lead to that. However, it is unfortunate that I had to experience that, especially after the reassurance that what occurred Friday night would not happen again and that Dante was a harmless dog. Terry did not offer an apology after this incident. The property itself and the house is truly beautiful and amazing. However, I would not advise that you visit if you have a fear of dogs. If you don’t, go on ahead and book a stay.

I've been here before, so I knew that the peace and quiet that I wanted, would be there. Sitting underneath the pecan nut trees, on a swinging bench, just letting nature take over my soul!

Everything was perfect!
