The Space:

As one of the few single-unit cabins in Brule Village, Maple Leaf Lodge offers complete privacy. Inside, you'll find a warm, rustic atmosphere with wood-paneled walls and cozy furnishings. The cabin comfortably accommodates families and groups with 5 beds across 4 dedicated bedrooms—no open lofts here, ensuring a comfortable night's sleep for everyone.

Our home features two distinct living areas. The main level has a fully equipped kitchen that opens to dining areas and a living room, perfect for gathering together. The recently remodeled lower level offers a second family room where you can watch TV, play board games, or challenge someone to one of the 1000+ classic Nintendo games. For your convenience, there are 2.5 bathrooms, with one on each floor.

Step outside to your private backyard space. Unwind in the hot tub after a day of adventure (or make that your daily "adventure" if you prefer).


Guest Access:
You will have exclusive access to the entire property during your stay, including the full cabin, the outdoor hot tub, and private parking areas.
