Family trip

We stayed at Lost Branch Lodge for our 9th Family Trip, and everyone voted this our favorite place so far. The lodge was so organized and clean. The host thought of everything to make our stay easy, convenient, fun, and relaxing. It is such a beautiful place, and our grandchildren absolutely loved the pond, sand beach, fishing, swimming, and canoeing. Perfect spot for our family to reconnect!

Wonderful!

We stayed here and had our wedding here! Was wonderful, the hosts were so amazing and accommodating. One of the AC units was not working right and the hosts had someone over to look at it the next morning. Definitely would recommend to anyone!

Beautiful Family Reunion Site

The facility is IDEAL for a family reunion! We had ages 4-90 on the property and it was comfortable for all. Kids played outside or in the pond or on the playground. Adults visited on the porch or in the living room. The kitchen is a perfect setup to entertain with a large center island for serving and a table that seats 14. Beautiful venue.

Incredible A Home Away from Home

Perfect gathering place for our Annual Christmas celebration! The lodge had INCREDIBLE amenities, fully and I mean fully stocked kitchen and cooking and utensils and appliances for preparing our full meals and eating as a large group for all our meals together! Such a warm cozy fun filled adventure to book and enjoy our family time together and enoughRoom to spread out and have private time or quiet time as needed for families and children. Would Definitely rebook and recommend for large groups. The multi propose room was a great place to gather for games and snacks and crafting/coloring/puzzle stations ands set up game areas to accommodate all age ranges! Thank you!

Games Galore

Year 27 of college friends gathering for some focused tournament style card games and table top games. This is a great central location to all involved, in a nice natural setting, but near enough Kirksville for food and such. Kitchen, dining, and living area is large, with the additional play room being great bonus space. Pond with beach and surrounding nature was beautifully arranged and kept, making for relaxing walks during breaks. Well suited for our needs. Expect a repeat!

Great outdoor retreat

We have been coming here for four years now and enjoy the laid back escape from life’s busyness. The updates that have been done are beautiful and the space fits our extended family well. We love the small pond with beach located at the property for swimming with all ages and those that like to fish can do so on the far side of the pond. The only drawback is if you are looking for activities other than outdoorsy things there isn’t very much available in Kirksville. We have done the axe throwing and the escape room. We enjoy spending time at Thousand Hills State park where we can use boats and there is a beach there as well.

Amazing place

We had 14 kids aging from 2 years old to 18 years old. They all had a fabulous time. the play area was so much fun for the little ones. We brought kayaks and fishing poles, they were busy from morning to dark. They caught so many cool fish. Played on the beach. We had a hard time getting them to come in when it was time to eat. Oh and you people thought of everything, we wanted for nothing. It was all in the lodge. All my people kept saying how much they loved the place and we should come back. Places to eat, get groceries, or go to church, are just minutes away. Thank you so much for a wonderful weekend.

Awesome Stay for Truman Graduation

We had a great time at the Lodge. Our extended family stayed for our daughter’s graduation from Truman State University. The lodge was even better than the pictures! Immaculately clean and well stocked with everything you could need.
