The seclusion and tranquility of Thorndyke Lodge are the perfect remedy to the pandemonium of the city on the 4th of July. The property is perfect. Lots for kids to explore, and lots of yard for games. We so appreciated the "Waltons" dining table and the large mud room for all of our things and activities. The beds were clean and comfy, the bathrooms clean, and the kitchen well stocked. We are already planning next year!
