Perfect for gatherings!
This was our 2nd year of celebrating Christmas at the lodge, which was beautiful decorated for the holidays. Our family of 10 had plenty of room and the grandkids really enjoy the loft area. The owners take pride in their well maintained facility … it’s clean, comfortable, and well equipped. They have a nice outdoor area, fire pit, and just a short walk to the lake.

Girl Scout Summer Trip
We had such an amazing time! The property is absolutely beautiful. It was very clean, spacious and had everything we needed. The campground next to the lodge was never an issue. The house was still very quiet and we had plenty of privacy. The dinning room table was one of our favorite things about the house. All the girls could sit together to eat, work on their badges and play games. And the property was a quick drive over to Callaway Gardens! It was truly wonderful! The girls had the time of their lives! We hope to bring them back again!

Country Oasis
The Newnmor lodge was exceptional in every way! The host were super kind and easy to contact if we needed anything during our stay.We were celebrating my daughter's graduation and the place was able to accommodate everyone perfectly. Not to mention the beauty of the space. The cabin vibe along with the personal touches made the area welcoming and comfortable. The short walk to the lake puts the cherry on top of the cake! Having the option to fish or just kick back and relax by the water was so serene! My family could not stop bragging on this place. We will definitely be visiting again!

Great for a group
This property was wonderful. Everything was as it is described in the listing despite the pictures not including all of the beds/rooms. The property is right near the water and offered a wonderful outdoor space. The outdoor seating area lacks a little privacy since cars were driving by to reach the RV park but we parked a car to block the area and it work out great. Also, the address on the listing is not the one that Google Maps used to get us there so we had some trouble finding the place.

Perfect For Family Gatherings
The Lodge exceeded our expectations. The owners were wonderful to work with, they even setup a Christmas tree for our family’s celebration. The pictures online don’t do it justice … Clean, spacious, and well stocked. You have a beautiful view of the river which has a well maintained area for fishing & great for the kids to play. There is an RV park next door, but we never had any issues with noise or privacy. The grandkids can’t wait to visit again!

The place is absolutely beautiful
The property is absolutely amazing, and very clean. The only downside is the campground that is not shown in the photos when looking it up. It seemed a lot more private and tucked away by itself. Was still very peaceful and amazing property. We will stay again and highly recommend this property.

Family reunion
The property was a great location for a long weekend and our family reunion. Forty of us gathered one day to enjoy time together. The owners were helpful and responsive to any questions we had when preparing for the reunion. The lodge had plenty of room for us all to gather and enjoy a beautiful day! It also had all the essentials necessary to make it a success. We are thankful the owners share a property that allows for larger events, because many VRBO’s do not!

Loved our stay at Newmor. Everything was clean and well organized!
We stayed 5 nights at Newmor. It was a very pleasant and quiet getaway for our family. Nine beds in one house made it easy for us to sleep comfortably. We had all of the amenities of home. We got lost while looking for the home at first. Our host stayed on the phone with me and guided me to the location. We will be returning as the home is located close to our hometown!

My wedding weekend was amazing on this property!
We rented the loader from Friday- Sunday so we could have a small wedding! It was the perfect day we didn’t realize there were RV spots right by the lodge, but the people there were so nice and friendly and made sure to let us have our day and kinda stay away from the lodge and where we had the ceremony by the water!

Christmas at the Cabins
My family and I stayed here during the Christmas Holidays and we loved it. It was more than enough room for us all. Very clean, spacious and up-to-date. The property owners were very nice to decorate the cabin with holiday attire and also put up a 9ft Christmas tree. Everyone enjoyed s'mores by the campfire and the walks by the lake. The property owners were very easy to contact after I thought I left parts of my grand daughter's dollhouse. This is a very quiet and serene property. I would definitely book it again. It was just what we needed to have a happy holiday.

Christmas Getaway for the Family
Christmas is a difficult time for our family due to the death of several family members in 2017. The past few years, we have take a Christmas getaway to make new and lasting memories for our family. This year we decided to go to Callaway Gardens and Wild Animal Safari in Pine Mountain, we located The Lodge at NewMor River Preserve and feel in love with the property. We were a little concern with the RV Resort being so close to the property, but it was not an issue - real quiet and not a lot of traffic. The lodge was beautiful and truly enough space for everyone to enjoy a little down time. Richard and Carrie Newton were so helpful, patient, and understanding - they decorated the Lodge for Christmas (the grandkids were so excited over the Christmas trees). We enjoyed some shopping, loved the lights at Callaway Gardens, and got to see lots of animals at Wild Animal Safari but it was nice to come back to the Lodge to enjoy time as a family. We set up a Hot Chocolate Bar, painted little wooden Nut Crackers for Christmas, the kids drew lots of pictures for everyone, watched movies and enjoyed spending time together as a family. We hope to visit the Lodge again during the summer so the grandkids can enjoy spending time at the lake. The Lodge would be recommended to everyone as a place to stay for its beauty, quiet, and laid back atmosphere. Alice

Holiday/Wedding weekend
We booked this property for our wedding party to hang out and get dressed at. We ended up having family over for Thanksgiving, spent the wedding day there and had friends over for a football game gathering. This property accommodated everyone and was absolutely perfect! Our wedding photographer got some beautiful shots inside, our friends and their children loved being able to hang out on the large porch, fishing on the waters edge, and the large kitchen was definitely a hit with the family chefs. We are already looking for a reason to rent it again. The property owners were a dream to work with, and made the best weekend of our life possible. Highly recommend.
