Mountain Lake Lodge-A Series-Part 5-Changes

(click on photo to enlarge)

It was a downpour when we left the Lodge to head back to the cabin. The front desk gave us umbrellas to use so we could stay dry! We are expecting snow and sleet tonight/tomorrow. Darn it, the Buchanan Parade is tomorrow. If we end up going, we'll be freezing our tookuses off.

In Lodge talk today I'll share with you the changes that have been made at the Lodge. Although much of the staff and management team are new, you wouldn't even be able to tell. I mean that in a good way. Everyone got along great with each other and things just flowed so naturally like they've been working together for years!

I found this article that explains all the changes taking place:

"The famous resort from “Dirty Dancing” has undergone many changes in hopes of becoming one of southwest Virginia’s premiere vacation destinations.

Mountain Lake Lodge, located about 30 minutes from Virginia Tech in Pembroke, Va., reopened on May 3 after undergoing design, vision and management changes......." Read the rest of the story HERE

  2. It's been years since I was at Smith Mountain lake (for a wedding of friends). It is a charming place. I would love to see the renovations. Be careful out there !

  4. Hi Tanya, I have enjoyed your posts about the Lodge. Looks like a great place to visit. Might go there one day. Thank you for your kind comments about the backlinks. I was just worried you might find them annoying as I know it has been understandably a bit irritating for a few people, not understanding why I am leaving my calling card, that it wasn't actually my doing and not realizing that they could get rid of them by turning off their backlinks. I have been slowly learning a lot about those things :) Thanks for being so understanding. If it doesn't bother you it doesn't bother me. Have a great weekend :)

  10. The snow's a good thing!

    Having had never watched Dirty Dancing, I don't think I'd associate the resort with the movie.
