This custom designed glamping lodge was a dream of mine for a long time. I wanted a place to go to unwind and be with one with nature. But! wanted it close to town so I do not have to travel far and still be close to the city attractions. AC and Heat are in the Lodge The lodge backs up to a large hill--called the Loess Hills. Many deer, raccoon, possum and turkey call it home and so does a few pets of mine to include a mini schwazer and two goats. They just love being adorned by new people. I think you will find this a perfect place for a good nights sleep. Learn more about this land: --Enjoy the deer setting amongst the tree's and nature. Hiking trails close by.

Arrowhead Lodge offers a unique blend of nature and comfort, making it ideal for those who enjoy a rustic experience with modern conveniences like air conditioning. Guests appreciate the cozy decor and chance encounters with local wildlife such as goats and deer. Though the lodge is situated in a suburban backyard, it still manages to provide a sense of seclusion and connection with nature. Some reviewers noted that the bathroom arrangements could be more convenient, but overall, the stay is described as peaceful and enjoyable.

This little place is great! The decor is so cozy and the glass front is great for watching the wildlife. The goats were fun to interact with and we loved hearing them in the morning. There were so many things to see along the way back and forth through the yard to the cabin. We will for sure be back.

The cabin was great! It was in his backyard but right up against the tree line so very quiet, private & secluded. The goats were a great surprise to see in the morning. Thank you!
