One of the best parts of visiting Pawhuska is being able to visit The Lodge on Drummond Ranch. The Lodge is the family guest house, which also serves as the production location for Ree’s Food Network show!
I told you in the last post about the 25 cent iced tea at the Mercantile, but the tour of the Lodge is an even better deal! It is free.
You will need to plan ahead to visit because Lodge tours are only offered on select dates. You can find out what dates are available on The Pioneer Woman website. Pick up the instructions & directions when visiting The Mercantile and you are ready.
The drive isn’t too long, but plan on taking your time. The drive to the Lodge is filled with lots of cows, horses and windmills, but is on gravel. Most of the county roads in Kansas & Oklahoma are gravel so fill up your gas tank and don’t wash your car before you visit!
The Lodge is absolutely beautiful & you can tour everything. There are hosts there to greet you and tell you to walk around, open doors, drawers and cabinets! All of the rooms are open and nothing was off limits.
You enter the Lodge from the deck which overlooks the ranch.
The sliding glass doors on the deck go right into the kitchen where Ree films her show.
The living portion of the lodge is decorated flawlessly and has three guestrooms. Each guestroom has a private bath.
Last on the tour was the commercial kitchen. It was stocked with everything you could want or need in the kitchen. I love my Kitchen Aid mixer and saved room for it in the camper. Ree must love hers because I counted at least 8 at the Lodge. I also loved her Fiestaware and jadeite dishes.
I hope you enjoy getting a peek behind the camera. Definitely worth the trip to visit!

You have given me the idea to visit Pawhuska! I was wondering where you camped and if you’d recommend wheverever you were. Did you do other activities in the area? The lodge was decoraged beautifully, and I really enjoyed seeing the pictures. Thanks for this post!

Betty, I am housesitting in Kansas for 3 months so I am not staying in my camper. However, there are a lot of campgrounds in the area where there are full-time campers. I passed by Hulah Lake and Dam outside of Pawhuska. It is in the Osage Nation Reservation in Osage County. It was absolutely beautiful!
