Families do dine here and many guests celebrate birthdays and family occasions at The Lodge.

Note that busy holiday buffets may be challenging for very young children or mobility-limited guests; consider an early seating and call ahead if you need accommodations.

For lively brunch experiences, Sunday is the best day, guests love the Sunday Brunch buffet, live jazz and chef stations. For a quieter, romantic dinner or date night, a weekday evening (Mon–Thu) is a better bet. If you want the best of both worlds, reserve ahead and ask for a quieter table off the main flow.

It depends on your goals: - For lively, full brunch service (with live jazz and carving/omelet stations) choose Sunday morning, it’s a guest favorite but can be busy. - For a quieter, more intimate dinner pick a weekday night (Mon–Thu) when service is typically calmer. - Weekends and holidays are popular and can be crowded, reservations recommended for peak times.
