Phone and Internet

There is a phone at the Lodge for guest use. Local and long distance calls are free. It is not an actual landline, but a Verizon wireless home phone system.

There is no internet or WiFi at the Lodge, but you can bring your own Broadband Hotspot (JetPack or MiFi type device) or USB Broadband Stick, or if you are technically proficient and your plan allows it, you can tether your phone to use it as a hotspot.

Your cell phone may or may not work at the Lodge. Please refer to the notes below for a somewhat subjective evaluation of service by various carriers.

Verizon – Excellent voice and data coverage. Data rates are quite good (over a megabit), but not as good as in the city).

Sprint – Voice service spotty to OK. Data service fair, usually 600-700 kbps.

Virgin Mobile – Same as Sprint.

AT&T – Poor connectivity for both voice and data. Sometimes the data works, and is about 700Kbps, but sometimes it doesn’t.

T-Mobile – Voice works well, and the LTE data works well also, but not as good as Verizon's. Varies from 1 to 5 Mbps.

You can find free public WiFi at the Astor Library about 5 miles from the cabin if you need it.
