The Lodge at Boyce was the perfect place to have our family holiday get together. The interior is spacious, even with our large group, but still intimate enough for everyone to be included. Plus it’s gorgeous inside, and could be used for any occasion. Plenty of parking area, and a perfect location- private, quiet, without being too far away from Bowling Green, Scottsville or Alvaton, and easy to find. We all loved having a place to be together, without worrying about size, space, seating, etc. We, without a doubt, will continue to use The Lodge for future events.
