Lyric Lodge & Inn at GratiDude Ranch - Leipers Fork

Lyric Lodge & Inn at GratiDude Ranch used to be known as Lyric Springs Country Inn and was a B&B owned by Patsy & Ed Bruce. Ed Bruce was a well-known song-writer and actor. He wrote "Mama don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys" and starred in the Western hit "Maverick". Country artists such a Johnny Cash have graced the Lodge and the same pool table that these stars used is sitting in the saloon today. Pretty cool, huh?!

The lodge layout is as follows:

*Creek View Suite (Sleeps 5): This upstairs private suite has a king bed as well as a bunk bed with a trundle twin bed. This suite has a private luxury bath with a gorgeous walk-in shower. Private sliding doors walk you out to the wraparound porch overlooking the creek with a private seating area to enjoy your morning coffee or evening whiskey.

*Pond View Suite (Sleeps 2) This upstairs private suite has a king bed that can be converted to two twins. This room also has a private bath. Private sliding doors walk you out to the wraparound porch overlooking the pond with a private sitting area to enjoy your morning coffee or evening whiskey.

*The Zen Suite (sleeps 2) This upstairs Suite has two twins that can convert to a king and has a bath that is just outside of the space in the hallway. This suite also includes a living room area with a fireplace and TV. There is a private entrance to the Zen Suite that also walks out to the salt water in-ground pool.

*The Saloon (Sleeps 2) This downstairs room is set up as an actual Saloon with a bar (we do not provide alcohol but feel free to bring your own). It also has a pool table.

There is a fully stocked gourmet chef kitchen available to guests and a dining room that can seat up to 20 guests.

The Inn has an additional living room and kitchenette.

Guests also have access to a laundry room.

In addition to the Lodge & Inn, a creekside guesthouse quarters can be booked separately and can sleep an additional four to five additional guests. If guests renting the Lodge & Inn prefer having the entire property to themselves, we would recommend renting the guesthouse. Otherwise, it could be rented by another party during your stay. The guesthouse can also be set up as a meeting space for workshops, presentations, yoga, etc. It has an 82" flat screen TV that can also be used for Multi-Media presentations.

For larger groups or weddings, there is additional lodging and event space. Please contact us for more details.

Private, religious or corporate group gathering are welcome.

We have 25 farm pets on the ranch. Guests are welcome to visit the animals during their stay by appointment.

We also host MONTHLY Farm-to-Table dinners and Hillbilly Clue Murder Mystery Dinners at GratiDude Ranch throughout the year. Please inquire if a dinner event is happening during your stay. They are pretty awesome events and if you're staying over an event weekend, you don't want to miss out!

If an event is not happening during your stay, private farm-to-table dinners are available to guests by request and our chef's availability. Please contact us for more info.
