"It's a great place for family reunions and weddings," said Linda Swalve who, with her husband, Richard, owns the 7,600-square foot resort. "We have repeat guests constantly. Most people who stay once book for the following year." When you first walk in, you know this place is different. You are welcomed by an amazing collection of rustic decor, antiques and collectibles, the careful attention to detail, and the comfort afforded in every living area and outdoor space. "What makes Cedar Lodge unique, I think, is the atmosphere," Linda said. "ere is so much to look at. We have a three-night minimum stay and you really need three days to just to see everything. Even when people come back again they see things they didn't see before." Cedar Lodge offers seven bedrooms with five full baths, 1 shower only room and two powder rooms. It has an indoor sauna and outdoor jacuzzi. A large cabana with a full size refrigerator, fire place, outdoor tv and fire pit for roasting marshmallows. And you haven't even made it down to the shoreline yet where you will find a large dock with canoes, kayaks and paddle boats, plenty of water lily pads to float on are available plus a water slide. ey also have boat rentals for guests who are staying at the house. "We actually own four other vacation rentals," Linda said. "It works out well because one of our properties is one door down from Cedar Lodge. We oen rent the two together for weddings or family reunions. And we also own two resorts directly across the lake from Cedar Lodge. We have a lot of flexibility and availability if Cedar Lodge is booked or too big for their needs." e Swalves also own a fih vacation rental in Noel, MO on the Elk River. Linda and Richard purchased the property in October 2020 from Dave and Sandy Berry, who, with plans to retire, approached the Swalves and asked if they'd like to buy it. e Swalves own a construction business, Swalve Enterprises LLC, and remodel hospitals, so with their experience in maintenance and construction, they felt they were an ideal fit.
