Named for the rooster of folklore and fable — \"chanticleer\" being an old literary name for a proud, crowing rooster — the lodge's realistic rooster swizzle stick makes the name tangible in a way few motor lodge souvenirs manage. Like many independent motels of its era, detailed records of Chanticleer Lodge are scarce today, but surviving pieces like this one are part of what keeps its memory alive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBrowse more New England travel and lodging swizzle sticks in our collection.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antigo Trunk","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43242165141713,"sku":"B1060","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0624\/1733\/8577\/files\/IMG_8297_9658c9b5-a48b-4ca7-b7e1-faefce0fb6c0.jpg?v=1786402041","url":"https:\/\/www.antigotrunk.com\/products\/swizzle-stick-drink-stirrer-chanticleer-lodge-derry-nh-realistic-rooster-vintage-1950s","provider":"Antigo Trunk","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
