Description

Escape to a private retreat where natural beauty, modern comfort, and investment potential come together. Nestled in the valley of the Shawnee National Forest, this fully remodeled 4-bedroom, 3-full-bath lodge, formerly known as Trail's End Lodge, offers a rare opportunity to own a turnkey property designed for both relaxation and income production. Set on more than 42 acres of lush, wooded landscape, the setting provides privacy, versatility, and an unforgettable experience for guests and owners alike. Inside, the lodge has been thoughtfully updated with modern finishes while maintaining its warm, inviting atmosphere. The kitchen is designed to impress with panoramic views, featuring custom-built soft-close cabinetry, quartz countertops, and new appliances, making it equally suited for everyday living or large-scale entertaining. Two gas fireplaces add warmth and ambiance throughout the home, creating inviting gathering spaces year-round. A dedicated home surround sound system enhances the entertainment experience, while the on-site bar and cocktail lounge, complete with a walk-in refrigerator, create the perfect gathering space. Outdoors, the amenities elevate this property into a one-of-a-kind retreat. The bandstand includes backline power capable of supporting multiple instruments, ideal for live music and events. A private shooting range and pond offer recreational opportunities right on the property, while expansive acreage provides endless possibilities for exploration and outdoor enjoyment. Designed with relaxation in mind, guests can unwind in the jacuzzi tub or sauna after a day of activities. The detached two-car garage includes an electric vehicle charging station, adding modern convenience to this scenic escape. Located just minutes from the Shawnee Hills Wine Trail, Shawnee National Forest, Bald Knob Cross, and beloved family-owned orchards, the lodge is perfectly positioned for tourism and event hosting. Whether envisioned as a wedding venue, retreat center, vacation rental, or private getaway, this remarkable property is ideally suited for hosting large gatherings, celebrations, and unforgettable experiences.
