Bask. The Lodge at Storybrooke will take your breath away, but it pales in comparison to the natural beauty surrounding you the moment you step outdoors. The sound of the peaceful creek is the heartbeat of Storybrooke as it meanders through the middle of the property and flows just next to the lodge. There are several places along the creek to spend an afternoon sitting by the gentle rapids, or put an adirondack chair in the creek and read a book as the water cools your feet. Enjoy lunch on the deck overlooking the creek, or as the sun goes down, light a fire in the locally made cast-iron fire pit that sits just beside the water.
