The Space:

As one of the few single-unit cabins in Brule Village, Maple Leaf Lodge offers complete privacy. Inside, you'll find a warm, rustic atmosphere with wood-paneled walls and cozy furnishings. The cabin comfortably accommodates families and groups with 5 beds across 4 dedicated bedrooms—no open lofts here, ensuring a comfortable night's sleep for everyone.

Our home features two distinct living areas. The main level has a fully equipped kitchen that opens to dining areas and a living room, perfect for gathering together. The recently remodeled lower level offers a second family room where you can watch TV, play board games, or challenge someone to one of the 1000+ classic Nintendo games. For your convenience, there are 2.5 bathrooms, with one on each floor.

Step outside to your private backyard space. Unwind in the hot tub after a day of adventure (or make that your daily "adventure" if you prefer).


Guest Access:
You will have exclusive access to the entire property during your stay, including the full cabin, the outdoor hot tub, and private parking areas.

Other Things to Note:
Please note that while we are very close to the ski resort, our property is not ski-in/ski-out. We are located a convenient 10-minute walk or a 2-minute drive to the Ski Brule Lodge and lifts. Shuttles are typically available by calling Ski Brule Lodge.

Lastly, we often heavily discount our non-weekend nights to make it more affordable for guests to add an extra night (or several). We find guests often enjoy adding an extra night so they can arrive earlier and/or have a home base to get an extra day of skiing (or other activities) in before heading home. In particular, we often find that Thursday and Sunday skiing at Ski Brule can be some of the best (and least crowded) days!
