About this property

Leave everyday life behind -- visit Oak Leaf Lodge at Graylag Nature Preserve to relax in a comfortable rustic environment with family and friends. Our 6 family-style cottages share the lakefront so you can enjoy swimming, fishing, sailing and boating, or explore the miles of trails within our 300-acre woodland preserve. Spend evenings cooking over the fire and roasting marshmallows while listening to the calls of owls and loons.

Graylag is perfect for family reunions and group retreats. You can rent one cabin or the entire property.

Oak Leaf Lodge is a house with 2 comfortable upstairs rooms with queen beds and a large basement 'bunk room' with 2 twin beds and a set of bunks. The main level features a large open layout dining and living area with gas fireplace, kitchen, bath and a cozy reading area. There is a very large deck overlooking the forest and another outdoor lounge area with chairs and a hammock off of the basement room. Oak Leaf Lodge is available year-round. The fully equipped kitchen includes a microwave, coffeemaker and tableware. There is an outdoor charcoal grill. Bed linens, towels, soap and shampoo are provided.

Oak Leaf Lodge guests enjoy full use of the Graylag property including miles of walking trails out the back door, the lakefront beach and fire pit as well as use of the kayaks, canoes, paddle boards and sailboat. The Lodge is located near the entrance to the Graylag property, approximately 1/2 mile from the lake.

Please note: no smoking and no pets. Also, please be aware that all bedrooms are located either up or down a flight of stairs, and may therefore be difficult for young children, the elderly, or anyone for whom stairs are a challenge.

Nice house

It was a very nice property. The only complaint would be the basement that did have a bedroom was very musty smelling. I know that is to be expected since it's a basement but I didn't think a bedroom was in the basement. Those that slept there were very congested and coughing and sneezing the whole time.

Mother and daughters getaway

We chose this cabin because of the light coming from all the windows and the skylight. It felt like being in a treehouse looking out at all the green trees around us. The downstairs room with four beds would be great for a family with kids but we chose to enjoy the two upstairs rooms. The stairs are a little steep but my 88-year-old mother made it up and down just fine. The cabin is a half mile from the lake so sometimes we chose to drive instead of walking down to the lake. There is whimsical art along the road and the trails which just make you smile. We took a canoe and paddled to the marsh and listened to a loud chorus of frogs and watched some loons. If the weather was warmer we would have tried out some of the other watercraft that's available. We lucked out and got to go on a nature walk with a scientist to some vernal pools. I wish I had had a place like this to go to when my kids lived at home. Even though we are older, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay here.
