...and now owned by the Philbern family, Blue Creek Lodge was once a dance hall and a saloon. High-stakes gambling and moonshining took place in the cellar of the old lodge. Since those Wild West days, a few changes have taken place. With a devastating fire in 1977, the Philberns rebuilt what now stands — greatly improving the original buildings to accommodate the many people that come to Blue Creek year-after-year.

As members of the community for over 30 years, the Philberns can give you ideas on many recreational activities, such as fishing, hunting, horseback riding, hiking, and biking, just to name a few.
