On the first weekend of summer, Elsie and her friends meet at their cabin in the woods. As Elsie struggles to repair the dilapidated retreat, the other women become too distracted by their own problems to get involved. Elsie hammers away at loose siding, while her best friend, Diane, drinks wine coolers. One evening during Art Night, when they celebrate their artistic pursuits, the women-only weekend is interrupted by the presence of two mysterious men who emerge from the woods. The next day as Elsie tries to deal with the unmistakable attraction to one of the men, she is forced to face the real reason for the gathering. As old and new wounds resurface, conflicts erupt between the hold of the past and the need to let go. Elsie discovers the fate of the lodge as she discovers the importance of friendship in her life.
