The original lodge accommodations and lobby area are still in use, the lounge and bar area that was added in the late ’50s underwent significant upgrades in 2011 and the beautiful addition of the Lakeside dining room was added.
As the Red Umbrella has grown in size it has also grown in amenities offered to make each stay even more enjoyable.
In the summer months, enjoy the kayaks, canoes, paddleboats, outdoor games, water trampoline, and evening bonfires.
When the weather is a little cooler more indoor activities are used, such as pool and foosball tables, and a lounge area with a gas fireplace.
The Red Umbrella Inn is located on a 3-acre property on the west shore of Twelve Mile Lake.
We feature a “kid-friendly” sand beach with shallow swimming in a sheltered bay (no lifeguards). There are complimentary canoes & paddle boats available for our guests. There is free Wi-fi internet covering the entire property.

Recently travelled to the area on our motorbikes. Had trouble finding a place to stay but ended up at the Red Umbrella. Our accommodations were pretty average it was an... read more older building and appeared to be in mid repair. To be fair it was their last room. The beds were very comfortable. The bathroom was dated and needed work. Overall the unit was clean just old and tired. The restaurant/bar was a great spot. The bar tender / server was running all night and she was awesome. The food was amazing , no really it was exceptional and would highly recommend you stop by even if your not staying. Our experience in the dining room is the reason we will return. Beautiful lake view and very accommodating staff.
