Discover the secret history behind Averill’s Flathead Lake Lodge, in the latest in the Discover Ranches travel series by Top50 Ranches and Discover Outdoor Life.
“Discover Ranches” is the new web series featured at DiscoverOutdoorLife.com. The second episode in the series, “Averill’s Flathead Lake Lodge: Secret History”, features Averill’s Flathead Lake Lodge in Montana, USA – a third-generation family operated guest ranch located on the stunning shores of Flathead Lake in northwest Montana.
The episode looks at the fascinating history of the guest ranch. Flathead Lake Lodge was built in 1932 as a boy’s camp and acquired by Les Averill when he returned to Montana from the war in 1945. His boyhood dream was to build a dude ranch and hunting lodge for folks to experience a part of the West. That dream came true with the purchase of the Flathead Recreation Ranch for Boys – what is now Flathead Lake Lodge. Learn more in the second episode of Discover Ranches on DiscoverOutdoorLife.com.
