"Powder Hound Lodge is Ground Zero for Midwest Backcountry Sledders. Chris and Anne make sure the Lodge is home away from home for snowmobilers, sports enthusiasts and those who simply love the outdoors."

Rec room, rustic bar and shared dining areas give Powder Hound Lodge a unique and social feel.
Common areas along and the ability to sleep a good number of people under one roof are the big points of difference with this place. Large rec room with pool table with streaming sporting events, several seating areas, bar area and dining areas offer plenty of space for large groups, several groups and individual travelers all to have their own space.
There is an adjacent lounge with bar seating (no restaurant or bar service - it's all byob). Sauna and hot tub are off the bar area in separate rooms. |
It's a social place. Dining area, full kitchen and grills for guests to use.
Everyone's welcome at Powder Hound - groups or individuals. And unlike your typical hotel stay, people share the common areas and talk to each other. There's always an adventure being shared in the common areas.
Our kitchen is small and seems to work fine no matter how many people are here. There are a variety of dining options. Guests tend to eat at the pub across the street or eat on the trail. Some end up grilling and hanging out in the lounge area while others use the kitchen and grills. There are plenty of options. Plenty of plates, cups, glasses, utensils, pots & pans too.
Some groups will have early morning meetup times with guides or have a set time they want to be out the door. Let us know and we'll do our best to accommodate deadlines & kitchen flow.

The Lodge has the ambiance of being at a friend's large family cabin and the 9 lodge rooms are like a hotel, each room with it's own bathroom. You can rent the entire lodge, all 9 rooms or rent by the room. Each room is different and has it's own bathroom. We've been compared to a hostel in that there are a lot of common areas that are shared by guests.
Common areas are large open areas where people spend most of their time, shared full kitchen and dining area seating 12 - 15, large rec room with television & cable, bar/lounge area and outdoor deck, grill area, balcony/decks and large yard. Plenty of room for people to spread out and mingle.
