DESCRIPTION

A historical gem in the Snowy Range, the Sand Lake Lodge was once the kind of place where families gathered for vacations. They would fish from the shores of Sand Lake and enjoy a home cooked meal at the lodge. Now, just a group of decaying buildings, this area is home to amazing scenery and history.
