About the host
Hosted by Robert Megonnell
Our sole purpose for developing this property into a vacation lodge was to provide folks with an affordable option to expensive vacations. Once you experience the beauty of this location we feel sure you’ll be a repeat guest.
We live nearby and also run a licensed and insured river charter from this location and others. Be sure to ask about charter availability and reduced rates while you’re a guest at the lodge!

Why they chose this property
This particular section of the Susquehanna River is famous among smallmouth bass anglers nationwide. We grew up in this area and can attest to the quality of the fishing here.
The views of the river and mountains are unparalleled, along with easy access to many other venues in central PA.
Our lodge is located at the western terminus of what was named St. Anthony’s Wilderness, so named by Moravian missionaries in the 1700’s. Just east of the lodge you will find what remains of the Wilderness, and to this day is still the 2nd largest roadless tract of ground in PA. This area is all public ground comprised of both State Forest and State Game Lands.
