Best VRBO rental ever
I’ve stayed at a number of Vrbo properties and this was hands down the best! The managers of the property were accommodating, attentive and extremely helpful. I could not know highly recommend this place. Absolutely beautiful and thoroughly impressive.

What a Perfect Getaway Spot
There were about 25 or so of us who got to experience the Lodge at Walnut Grove. To say it was above and beyond and completely exceeded our expectations would still be an understatement. The place was spectacular and immaculate. Every detail and amenity accounted for. We were there for a songwriting retreat, and apart from the ample space that we had, it also was simply inspiring because of the sheer beauty that we were surrounded by. We truly truly loved getting to stay here and enjoyed everything about it - start to finish. Thank you so much for creating such a wonderful place for people to stay in.
We absolutely love this property and the high end details. Weather would never be an issue here bc there is so much to do. We really appreciated how beautifully appointed the home was for every guest and every bedroom and bathroom was amazing. Heidi and Dee were absolutely wonderful to work with and went out of their way to make our stay perfect! We 100% recommend this property for groups and will be back!

Amazing for our retreat
This was perfect for our work retreat. The space is large enough to accommodate several working meetings at one time and that each room in the main house has its own bath was a definite plus. All the information in the guidebook was so helpful for facilitating meals. We will do this again!

Fantastic place to stay
Our family had the best stay at The Lodge at Walnut Grove to celebrate a 75th birthday. The home was beautifully decorated and stocked with way more than we expected, inside and outside. We have nothing but good things to say about our stay and can't wait to visit again with our huge family.

Fall Family Wedding Celebration!
Beautiful property, inside and out. Wedding on the bridge for our 14 person group was perfect. Kitchen to die for. Every attention to detail, brought extra firewood and farm fresh eggs.
