History

In 1927, Venie and Cotton Mather established a cabin made entirely of stone and wood obtained from the estate. The lodge was named Vecoma, which was simulated as a combination of the first two letters of the names Venie, Cotton, and Mather. Today, their family welcomes couples to celebrate their wedding day surrounded by the natural beauty of this family legacy.
