Arrive after 4 PM Friday and depart by 11 AM Sunday. Brunners Lodge manages multiple homes; the website alone does not establish your exact lodge, amenities, parking, or route. Use the host's booking messages for those details.
No hot tub, fireplace, kitchen equipment, or direct river access is assumed in the plan.

Coordinate ETAs in your existing group chat when safely stopped, and let dinner timing flex with arrivals.
