Amenities: This lodge will comfortably sleep 13 upstairs in a dormitory style arrangement of bunks. An additional single bed is located downstairs. A large gathering room allows plenty of space for relaxing, playing games or reading, but can double as a sleeping room for two. Also on the first floor is a half bathroom. Two covered porches on the front of the cabin – one upstairs and one downstairs – provide a spacious view of the compound. This is the only lodge not handicapped accessible.

Date: Circa 1860
Original location: Southwest of Union
 
Construction: The posts on the front porch and the beams above the porch were made from cedar trees cut during the Shaw Nature Reserve (SNR) glade restoration project.  The porch flooring and the windows were constructed out of cypress wood from ammunition tanks in Louisville, Kentucky, circa early 1900’s.  All of the inside doors came from white pine that was reclaimed from old buildings in St. Louis. The interior flooring was shelving that came from the Rexall Drug Warehouse in St. Louis. The bricks for the walkway outside the lodge were salvaged from Polar Ice Company in St. Louis.
