Tickets are affordable by design because the point is access, not profit.\n\nWednesday night bingo is the lodge's signature fundraiser, packing the hall with players supporting local charitable causes. The campground on the property offers a low-key overnight option for travelers who want something more personal than a chain hotel, surrounded by mountain air and good neighbors.\n\nBeyond events\u2026",
