Also known as Covatta's Brinton Lodge, the Lodge was run as a gentleman's club for many years prior to being turned into a restaurant by the Covatta family. it had been a private residence for many years when Caleb D. Brinton purchased it about 1927. In 1972, the flood waters resulting form Hurricance Agnes wiped out Brinton's investment as there was no flood insurance on the property. Brinton died in October of 1974 and is rumored to be one of the several ghosts that haunt the property. It is suggested that he is upset that his private lodge is now open to the public, but he doesn't seem to be that upset as he has been seen tipping his hat while wandering through.
 Also sharing the haunting limelight are Dapper Dan, a friendly spirit who like to blow in the ear of females as he passes by. There is also an older woman who tends to guard a stariwell. A lady in white has been spotted in the scond floor ladies room. At one point, there was also a young girl ghost who was thought to have been in a third floor bedroom.

The Brinton family is extremely well-known throughout the area and were some of the earliest settlers in the region. Caleb's father, Charles, died when Caleb was very young and though it is believed that Caleb was married to a woman named Ruth, based on his WWII registration, no further information appears to be available about her or any children they may have had. Just to make things intersting, due to the Brinton connection, Caleb is my fourth cousin, four times removed.
Many of the articles that appear about the Lodge state that Caleb never returned to the Lodge after the tropical storm Agnes did its damage in 1972. Most of these same articles state that Caleb died in 1975.
