Introducing DS Lodge: A New Outdoor Destination Coming to Keaton Beach

Digital Sportsman is bringing its vision for the outdoor industry to life with the introduction of the first DS Lodge, opening in Keaton Beach, Florida, in late 2026.

Announced at ICAST 2026, DS Lodge represents the next step in building a connected outdoor ecosystem. More than a place to stay, it's a destination where guests can experience world-class fishing, hunting, lodging, and adventure with the trusted guides and operators who have helped shape the Digital Sportsman community.

For years, Digital Sportsman has focused on giving outdoor businesses the technology they need to grow—from managing bookings and customers to connecting with new travelers. DS Lodge builds on that foundation by creating a place where those relationships extend beyond the platform and into real-world experiences.

Whether you're planning a fishing trip, a hunting getaway, or a weekend outdoors, every experience at DS Lodge will be built around the people who know these waters and woods best. By partnering with trusted guides and local operators, we're creating a destination where authentic outdoor experiences come first. 

The Keaton Beach location is the first in what will become the DS Lodge network, creating opportunities for future franchise owners to join a growing brand built on community, trust, and a shared passion for the outdoors.

As we prepare to welcome our first guests in late 2026, we're excited to continue sharing updates on the lodge, the experiences it will offer, and the partners who will help bring it to life.

The future of the outdoors isn't just about better technology—it's about bringing together the people, places, and experiences that make every adventure unforgettable.
