Fodor's Review:

Since 1945 Averill's has been providing families a wholesome and active Western getaway. The beautiful green grounds are on the shore of the lake, where beach fires, canoeing, and sailing take place. The lodge, accommodations, and other buildings are all log-and-stone structures. Horseback rides set out both in the morning and evening, and you can learn to rope in the rodeo arena. Many activities such as rafting and guided fishing trips are available for an extra cost. It's BYOB at the bar. October through May, the lodge is open for corporate retreats only. Pros: Watching the large herd of horses being turned out to pasture at the end of the day is breathtaking. Well-kept facility with many family activities. Cons: The sign on the east side of Highway 35 can easily be missed. The price takes this facility out of reach of most travelers.
