Blackwater Lodge features 54 lodge rooms, the Milton Harr Conference Center, indoor pool and hot tub, fitness center, wireless internet and the Blackwater Dining Room. Blackwater has 26 fully-equipped rental cabins complete with full size kitchens, microwave and fireplace. These year-round units vary in size from two to eight person size.
