The main accommodations will be at the INDIAN CREEK LODGE on the river. These are new accommodations and I highly recommend them. They have cabins with full kitchens and some with just microwaves and refrigerators. They also have a couple of rooms for people with pets. See the web site of http://iclodge.net/
