Doc’s Cozy Cat lodge was a delightful, refreshing break from a long drive. They really thought of everything a visitor might need. He was very prompt in messaging. Our grandsons thoroughly loved the toy barn and we all relaxed in the hot tub. Would definitely stay here again!

A great New Year’s Eve!

Review for Lazy Cat LodgeWe had an absolutely amazing stay at the Lazy Cat Lodge for New Year’s Eve! The property was perfect for our group, offering so many thoughtful touches and fun activities for everyone. The kids especially loved the toy barn, spending hours riding the ride-on toys and enjoying the space. It was such a joy to see them so entertained and happy!The hot tub was a highlight for the adults—relaxing and perfect for unwinding after the festivities. The entire lodge was clean, comfortable, and beautifully maintained, making it feel like a true home away from home.Communication with the host was incredible from start to finish. Every question we had was answered quickly and with such kindness, making the experience stress-free and enjoyable. The level of care and attention to detail truly stood out.We can’t recommend the Lazy Cat Lodge enough and are already looking forward to coming back! Thank you for making our New Year’s celebration so special.

Great stay at the Lazy Cat

We were in town for a wedding and the Lazy Cat was absolutely perfect for our group. The first floor master bedroom and walk in shower was exactly what we needed for grandma. The property was extremely well maintained and stocked. We didn’t have time to take advantage of the many amenities available but hope to at a future stay. Thanks Doc!

Family get together

Doc and Carrie's place was perfect for us three couples! We wanted a place where we could all hang out and visit, not three separate hotel rooms. So this was great. And it was close to our sister in law's 60th hippie birthday party! The place was cozy and clean and they have added so many thoughtful extras - coffee, spices, instructions, etc. It is right on a pretty busy road and close to power lines, but that didnt take away from the charm. We would stay here again if we are back in town to visit family.

Doc and Carrie couldn't have been more accommodating. The Lazy Cat Lodge was perfect. Comfortable beds. The home was cozy and clean. They provide anything you could possibly need. The Toy Barn was wonderful fun! My children loved it and played for hours. Plenty of space to relax, have a fire and let the kids play!

Excellent hospitality

The hosts provided us with everything we needed to have a fun, care-free visit. They thought of everything! We even had age-appropriate toys for our granddaughter and electric cars that were available for her to ride at will. I can't think of anything they could have done better. We will definitely be back.
