Would you stay here?

Birchdale is remote. It’s eight miles down a dirt road with no consistent cell service. (we love this part!!!) That remoteness is part of what makes it what it is—the silence, the sky, the way the lake holds you. We would never trade that. But we also know that remoteness can feel like a closed door if you don’t already know how to find your way in.

So we think about this a lot! We think about the person who’s never been. We think about the family who’d love a day at the lake but isn’t sure it’s for them. We think about the person coming from away who needs the solitude of Birchdale the way you need water—and doesn’t yet know this place exists.

What does it take for someone arriving from away, carrying whatever they’re carrying, to set down their bag and feel like they’ve come to a place that was somehow expecting them?

A retreat to this remote and magical place is a special kind medicine and WE INVITE YOU to try a dose.
