The Grande Butte Lodge has a loyal following of families – not only for its size, but also for the setting and the scale of its gathering areas. It feels like home. LIVING SPACES Enter the vaulted-ceiling, main-floor gathering area – with the kitchen updated in 2017, to include a commercial freezer and refrigerator (in addition to a standard size unit with ice and water), and a granite-topped serpentine island that seats 10. (Yes, 10.) Leather sofas surround the gas fireplace and satellite tv. Log-style furniture, plaid pillows and antler accents, support the lodge theme. The harvest table and additional seating face a wall of windows, with a door to the porch that overlooks the pool and the countryside. The lower level gathering area centers on the stone, wood-burning fireplace and another satellite tv. Billiard table and four-top, game tables complete the space. The lower level opens up to the pool level. Outdoors – The porch has Edison string lights and comortable seating to enjoy the views.

Our remote team of six gathered for three days to work and engage - everyone had a wonderful time, learned more about each other and even did a ton of work! Would totally recommend this facility. Lots of little places for people to work independently or as a group, many activities to strengthen your team, we did hikes and kayaking. Although it is 30 minutes away - would highly recommend the Rhapsody in Nelsonville on Wednesday night - the Hocking College Culinary school runs it and they have Jazz on Wednesdays - it was wonderful.
We had our chruch group of about 15 older single for a retreat. Everything was great! We had time to relax, commune with nature, hike, enjoy the hot tub, explore caves and have a campfire. The staff was helpful, attentive and very responsive. I highly recommend this place, it was truely beautiful retreat.
Our group of four retired couples had a lovely time at Grand Butte Lodge. The lodge’s beautiful amenities and quiet setting were just what we were looking for! We were impressed by the cleanliness of all the spaces. (Thank you to staff members Rory, Matt, and Allen who were very welcoming and helpful!). The beds were very comfortable. Easy drive from Grand Butte to state parks and Logan.
Perfect rental for a family vacation. Enough seating for everyone. Bedrooms were very spacious. Hot tub fit our group (5 adults, 6 children). Hiking trails were just a short drive away. We have already discussed coming back :)
Great time. Large space and very secluded but in the middle of all the parks. Needs a refrigerator on the pool level. Well stocked with supplies.
Grand Butte over all was a great place to stay and do a quiet stay to catch up with friends.
Easy to book. Not easy to find. No cell service if you have ATT so be aware that you lose it going near the cabin but those with TMobile did fine. Super clean, older but all in working order. Loads of room for gatherings. Great hot tub. Gorgeous area. We'd stay again.
Pool was a little cold but was OK once we got used to it. Great hot tub for 10. Wonderful great room for everyone to be in the same room T the same time. Two refrigerators were perfect for a group our size. Would stay again.
Great place roomy and beautiful
Something we’re bad but for the most part good!! Upset no pool so price was little nigh
