The drive to Medawisla Lodge takes you on logging roads which can be difficult to pass after major rain events in early June and late October. GPS can be inaccurate in the region and it is suggested that pay close attention to driving directions provided after making a reservation.
Free use of our fleet of canoes and kayaks is included in your stay and can be launched off our boat slip on Second Roach Pond. A common rocky beach swim area is a short walk from the cabin. If you intend to swim or boat, please bring your own beach towel.
There is a single campfire ring in camp with benches, and chairs. Firewood is provided and staff will light the fire upon request.
Our staff is knowledgeable about local recreation opportunities and can point you in the right direction for gravel biking adventures, hiking trips, fishing spots, ski tours and great locations to spot local flora and fauna on land and on the water. Natural history presentations are often offered on site as well.
There is a meeting space available to rent if you have a larger group that would like to have a space set aside.
