The Rustic Hook Lodge is a four‑season duplex nestled on 2.5 peaceful acres. The Steelhead Suite occupies the right half of the lodge and offers a comfortable 2‑bedroom, 2‑bath layout with a fully stocked kitchen.

Kayaking on the Pine River, plus nearby hiking, biking, and winter ski trails, make this a true year‑round destination.

For larger groups, the entire Rustic Hook Duplex can be rented by reserving the Rustic Hook Lodge. The full lodge includes 4 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, 12 total beds, and two complete kitchens.
