Guest Lodge at Santa Claus Lake

07/19/2026

This is what sunrise sounds like here.
Mist on the water, a loon calling across the cove, and not one other sound. The lake belongs to the loons, the trout, and — for one week — you.
No street noise. No traffic. Just the quiet you forgot you needed.

From the sky, our lake is the spitting image of Santa with his pack on his back. On its shore sits The Guest Lodge — Christmas red, pine-tree shutters and all — waiting for your family. 🌲
We've welcomed families to this hillside for more than fifty years. Just one summer week remains, and fall foliage is already booking up.
Come do wonderfully little.
