Welcome to our Doyle Lewis Family Reunion blog. I will have info on this site to keep everyone up to date on what is going on. Mom and I drove to the lodge on June 20th to take a look around. I think this will be a good place to stay and have fun together. Everyone should try to come up at least for a day!!! The dates are August 18 - August 21 - be there or be square . . .
This is the sign post where you turn to go to the Lodge - It is one mile from the Welcome to Oxford City sign to the Oxford loop, then approximately 1.7 miles from the Oxford Loop turn off to this sign and another .2 miles to the cabin from this sign.
At the Moose Spring Lodge sign you can see the cabin to your left and slightly behind you . . .
The kitchen is on the bottom floor, which is ground level when you drive up to the cabin. The front door is on the right side of this picture. We have access to a gas range, microwave and refrigerator. Here you can see one table with chairs around it and another table to the left. On the left of the kitchen is one of 3 sitting areas with couches and chairs and a wood burning stove. Just down the hall are three bedrooms, 2 with one queen bed in each and 1 with a king size bed and a master bathroom. There is also another bathroom on this floor.
This is one of the sitting areas - it is located on the second floor. As you can see in the pictures there is a log stairway that goes from the bottom floor all the way to the top floor of the cabin. I worry about the smallest children on these stairs - we should keep a close eye on them as the stairs are steep.
There are eight bedrooms total in the cabin. On the second floor there are 5 more bedrooms. 2 bedrooms with 2 queen size beds and 3 bedrooms with 1 queen size bed. There are 3 bedrooms with 1 queen size bed in each of them that are still available if anyone would like to stake a claim!!! First come first served!!!!!!!!!!!
This is the top level. As you can see it is an open space with 12 cots. I was thinking that teenagers, young adults, and older children could sleep up here together. I would recommend you bring a sleeping bag to put on top of the cot and sleep in the sleeping bag. There is no bedding provided!! (No bedding for ANY of the beds).
There is an old piano on this floor as well - It works too!
This is the view from one of the decks. Mom said that when their ward stayed at the cabin, several of the teenaged boys slept in sleeping bags on the deck - just a possibility. Below is a great view from the side deck which steps down to the ground.
Mom said that people put their campers, and trailers on this level area and then they had access to the bathrooms (2 of them at this end of the cabin). There are lots of places for tents, trailers, campers, etc. plenty of room!!!! By the way, there are 4 bathrooms total!! They all have a sink, toilet, and shower or tub!!!! You will need to bring your own towels, washcloths, etc.
Look for more posts and more information as I get things together. If anyone would like to offer input as to what they would like to do, eat, etc. while there, let me know. raylene18@hotmail.com
