Functional Handcrafted Hunting Lodges
Because the Blind Ain’t Enough
Waterfowl Ready. Hunter Approved.
Built By HandWhere Every Season Starts at Roost
Welcome to Roost Lodging — where passion for duck hunting meets handcrafted excellence. We don't just build lodges — we create legendary basecamps designed by real hunters who know what it takes to make every season unforgettable. Whether you're looking to find the perfect piece of land or build your dream hunting lodge from the ground up, Roost Lodging is your guide and your builder. Our lodges are thoughtfully constructed to maximize hunting efficiency with gear-ready mudrooms, dog wash stations, built-in gun safes, and optimal access to blinds and waterfowl hot spots. But after the hunt? That’s where the magic continues. Enjoy wide-open gathering spaces, fire-lit patios, and bunk-ready sleeping quarters for you and your crew. From first light to last call, Roost Lodging is built for hunters, by hunters — because we believe your time in the field deserves nothing less than legendary comfort and performance.
Split the Cost, Share the Hunt — Build with Your Crew
At Roost Lodging, we understand that most hunters don’t fly solo — they hunt as a crew. That’s why many of our clients form small groups or hunting camps that split costs through an LLC or joint ownership. A $500K lodge might seem out of reach at first glance, but when five friends go in together, that’s just $100K each — which breaks down to a manageable $800/month mortgage or a one-time investment for a lifetime of hunting memories. For serious waterfowlers, that’s not just doable — it’s smart. We’re here to guide you through it, from ownership structure to buildout, so you and your camp can finally have a place to call your own.
It’s also important to remember — a Roost Lodge isn’t just a place to crash during duck season. It’s a long-term real estate investment. Unlike hotel stays or rental cabins that drain your wallet year after year, owning a lodge gives you an asset that can grow in value, be sold in the future, or even generate revenue when you’re not using it through platforms like Airbnb or Vrbo. This isn’t just another cost of duck hunting — it’s a smart move that can pay you back in equity, income, and unforgettable experiences.

A Masterful Build By Roost
Starting With
We turn ‘Not a chance’ into ‘Let’s talk.’
Finding the perfect land for a hunting lodge isn’t as simple as spotting a duck flyway on the map — most landowners say “no” the moment they hear the word *hunter*. That’s where Roost Lodging makes all the difference. With deep roots in the hunting community and years of experience negotiating in high-demand regions, we know how to turn “no” into “yes” in the most sought-after locations across Tennessee, Arkansas, Missouri, and beyond. Whether it’s securing prime acreage near flooded timber, river bottoms, or major flyways, we understand what landowners value and how to structure deals that work. If you’re ready to find that hidden gem and build your legendary home base, we’ve got the boots on the ground and the strategy to make it happen.
Smart Designs for Field-Tested Function & Lodge-Level Comfort.
Hunt Hard. Rest Easy. Roost Right.
Common Space
At Roost Lodging, we believe the hunt doesn’t end in the blind — it ends in a space where stories are swapped, gear is dropped, and hunters kick back in comfort. Our consulting and design team works hand-in-hand with you to create the ultimate common area tailored to the hunting lifestyle. Think vaulted ceilings, warm wood finishes, oversized sofas, mudroom entries, boot dryers, and a roaring fireplace that draws your whole crew together. We prioritize function and flow — from early morning coffee stations to wide-open spaces perfect for post-hunt meals, game footage replays, and late-night laughs. It’s not just about building a lodge, it’s about designing a home base where your crew can rest easy after hunting hard. With Roost, every inch of the common space works as hard as you do in the field — and feels just as rewarding.
Bedrooms & Bunks
After a long day in the field, nothing hits better than a well-designed bedroom that delivers true rest and recovery. At Roost Lodging, we consult with hunters to design bedroom spaces that balance rugged practicality with serious comfort. From spacious bunk-style rooms for big crews to private master suites with lodge-style finishes, every space is crafted to feel like a reward for the grind. We think through every detail — built-in gun storage, charging stations, blackout shades, soundproofing, and durable flooring — so you can sleep deep and wake ready to go again. Whether you're hosting a weekend hunt or a full-season stay, our bedrooms are designed to give every hunter the space to recharge, reset, and rest easy. Because at Roost, comfort is just as critical as the call.
Kitchen and Dining
Great hunts deserve great meals — and at Roost Lodging, we design kitchens and dining spaces that bring hunters together in comfort and style. Our consulting and design team helps you create a lodge kitchen that’s fully equipped for everything from quick breakfasts before sunrise to wild game feasts after the final flight. We focus on open layouts, large islands, commercial-grade appliances, and plenty of storage to handle the demands of a full hunting crew. Connected dining spaces feature rustic finishes, oversized tables, and warm lighting that invite long meals and longer stories. Whether it’s coffee before the hunt or bourbon after, your kitchen and dining area should be a hub — and with Roost, it’s built to serve, gather, and let your crew rest easy after going hard in the field.
Mudrooms & More
Every serious hunting lodge needs a mudroom that works as hard as the hunters who walk through it. At Roost Lodging, our consulting and design process puts function first — creating mudrooms and built-in amenities that handle the grit, gear, and grind of duck season. We design custom spaces with gun safes, wader and boot dryers, utility sinks, locker-style storage, dog wash stations, and waterproof flooring — all with a layout that flows seamlessly into the rest of the lodge. These aren’t just entryways; they’re tactical command centers that keep your lodge clean, organized, and ready for action. After a cold, muddy morning in the blind, your gear has a place, your crew has a system, and you’ve got the peace of mind to rest easy. With Roost, your hunting lodge works smarter — from the first step inside.
Outdoor Space
At Roost Lodging, we know that some of the best moments happen after the hunt — under an open sky, around a crackling fire, and surrounded by your crew. That’s why we put just as much thought into outdoor spaces as we do the walls of your lodge. Our design and consulting team helps you create outdoor areas built for post-hunt relaxation and connection — from wide covered porches with rocking chairs to outdoor kitchens, fire pits, game cleaning stations, and gear-ready storage sheds. We design for comfort, function, and that unmistakable lodge atmosphere that turns a property into a place. Whether you’re swapping stories over a fire or grilling ducks after a double limit, your outdoor space should be as much a part of the experience as the blind. With Roost, you don’t just rest easy — you live well, outside and in.
