Janice and Jim are the gracious hostess/host of this wonderful lodge - Bed and Breakfast Inn. We arrived in the early evening and found our room to be delightfully clean and cozy; a lake view from the front window added to the charm. A quick ride into town for dinner at The Mill Restaurant (suggested by a local) was yet... More

My husband and I had a wonderful time, enjoying the beautiful views of the lake, the large screened in porch and rockers, the dock and canoeing on the lake, and the clean and comfortable rooms. There was plenty to do nearby: hiking, biking, antiquing, touring a microbrewery. The only drawback was that breakfast is no longer being offered at this... More

We rented the entire B&B for an annual family reunion and it was perfect! Enough bedrooms to accommodate all of us and between the kitchen and dining room tables we could even all eat at the same time. We have a mix of older (60s and 70s) and younger families (infants to age 10) and it worked out well for... More

The biggest turnoff was a really moldy muffin for breakfast. Now, on to the general comments. If you have not been to Lake Ripley you... More

We spent four nights at the Lake Ripley Lodge and loved it. We were looking for a nice place to kick back and relax, and relax we did! The home was welcoming, clean and comfortable. Our hosts, Jim & Jan, were wonderful and helpful, recommending many area restaurants and things to see/do in the area. We took their advice and... More

Had a great weekend and loved the location, with sunsets across the lake. Our hosts were very accommodating, supplying plenty of info on area dining and points of interest. Our room was very clean and the bed very comfy. We will definitely be back.
