When built, the lodge will feature a central lobby that will give the building an open, hotel-like feel as well as a multi-faith centre, 100-person movie theatre and licensed lounge, and a stand-alone gymnasium that will include a running track and separate weight training area. To further enhance remote working conditions, services such as physiotherapy, massage and hairdressing will also be available at the lodge.
Featuring single-occupancy bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms, television and Wi-Fi services, the custom-designed three-storey dormitories will reduce the lodge's environmental footprint. To service the site, ATCO will also build and maintain a wastewater treatment plant.
