Chris Womack has worn many different hats since starting at Flat Creek Lodge three and a half years ago. Since starting in the dining room as a server and bartender, he now works in the kitchen. The chef depends on Chris during the large events that Flat Creek often caters, and he serves as the prep cook as well as dishwasher. Chris knows his way around the Dining Room, and his favorite meal at the Lodge is the steak with a side of oyster mushrooms.

His favorite place on the property is the high spot on the way back from the dairy which shows a spectacular panoramic view of the lodge at sunset.  Chris finds the view of the sun set as the world slows down and notes it always brings a sense of peace and calming quiet.  When he isn't at Flat Creek, he enjoys watching a good movie with friends.  We are proud to have Chris as a part of our Flat Creek Family!

Omar has been at Flat Creek Lodge since 2006. He is charge of landscaping maintenance of the golf carts, tractors and general handy man. Omar is friendly and always ready to help in any capacity. Since Omar comes in early in the mornings he gets to see Flat Creek as the sun is rising over ponds and fields as he is riding his tractor. Like so many, it's difficult for him to choose a favorite place as he really loves the entire property. He is lucky in that he isn't tied to one particular place and can see everything and every place.
Omar really enjoys a Chef Chewy omelet made with the fresh cheeses and vegetables from Flat Creek. When lucky enough to be at work in the evenings, he enjoys the Chef’s great steak.

When not at Flat Creek Lodge, Omar enjoys being with his family. Originally from Cuba, he has very little family here in the United States. Omar and his family enjoy exploring new places in the U. S. He considers himself very fortunate to be an U.S. citizen.

Curt "Doodle" Hickox joined the Lodge just shy of a year ago, but he’s already making a big impact on our team! In his role in security, he is the first face of Flat Creek that guests encounter as they check in after hours. He also has the opportunity to share his passion for hunting and fishing as he helps in the area of outfitting.

He recommends the steak paired with the mushrooms grown here at the Lodge for a satisfying dining experience after a full day’s hunt. When he’s not enjoying the great outdoors, you’ll find him spending time with his fiancée. Says Hickox, “I feel really fortunate to be able to work at something I love and with the people of Flat Creek Lodge.”

Wine. Cheese. What else do we need? You, of course! Save the date for our Wine & Cheese Dinner on September 24, 2011.  This memorable event features our award winning cheese and our gourmet dining! Click the menu below to download the menu and call us at 877-352-8273 to reserve now.
