A group from an Adult Daycare from St Louis was over there and one of the ladies overheard an employee and someone else talking in the bathroom about how many black people were there. The management did not rectify the situation and the group of elderly and handicapped that had come in for a nice lunch ended up leaving early rather than deal with racism!!!
Hello I'm here to warn you that Jeremy Garnier, a prospected speaker that is supposed to coach kids on a better non-substance abuse life at your center. Jeremy Garnier is actively still using. DO NOT LET HIM TALK TO KIDS. He even has TWO pending substance charges in both Illinois and Missouri. Just a heads up. (see video proof)
We love Marquette Lodge. We go there a few times a year and adore the features such as the great room, cozy fireplace, and beautiful views. Unfortunately we’ve noticed some real negatives over the last few stays. The most recent was the worst.
We came to dinner in the dining room and were seated by the hostess. After asking about drinks, we told by the hostess that there was no drink menu. Since we’d seen the menus before, we left our table and went up to the counter...read full review

Pere Marquette Lodge & Conference Center is a charming, rustic place with a rich history dating back to the 1940s. The lodge features historic rooms and newer additions, along with cabins that offer a cozy, private stay. While some areas and amenities are in need of updates, the lodge maintains a warm and inviting atmosphere that families and visitors enjoy. The lodge’s great room is a favorite spot for relaxing by the large fireplace, especially after swimming in the pool or enjoying outdoor activities. The pool and hot tub are popular with kids, though the sauna is often not working, and some rooms lack amenities like a fridge or proper lighting, which can be disappointing. The rooms are generally simple and out of date, but the kids love the bunkbeds and outside views, and the outdoor trails remain beautiful. The restaurant offers decent food, with the fried chicken dinner being a highlight, though some reviewers found the food mediocre and the service inconsistent. Visitors appreciate the friendly staff and the variety of outdoor activities nearby, such as volleyball, shuffleboard, and tennis or pickleball courts. The visitor’s center and trails add to the experience, although some features no longer work. Overall, families and friends find the lodge a good value for short stays and quick getaways, especially for those nearby in St. Louis or St. Charles. Many hope for minor updates like fixing fireplaces, sauna, and improving the restaurant to enhance the experience further. Despite some shortcomings, Pere Marquette remains a beloved, nostalgic destination with plenty of fun and scenic beauty to enjoy.
