Nice place to stay.

Had a great stay. Clean, convenient and price/value was awesome. Would stay again.
2-night trip

10/10

It’s super convenient to stay overnight next to the visitor center after 10 plus hour driving. It’s clean, quiet and decently comfortable for a lodge. We see deer at the parking lot which delighted my daughter. Next morning we had breakfast at the lodge and ready for the cave tour!

Cool historic cottage at the Visitor Center to Mammoth Caves. All was great except the very loud A/C unit that went on/off all night.

Clean cabin, convient location for National Park.
1-night trip

10/10

The cabin was nice but historic so you have to remember they are old. Also it is a National Park so limited. No internet or tv in the room. The area was beautiful and the cave tours were amazing.

It was fun to stay in the park, but the rooms have seen better days. The grill was good, but didn't have enough staff.

The cabin was very basic. The bed was surprisingly comfortable. The room had nice cold AC. Television is not included.

Staff was friendly and knowledgeable. Cabin was clean and cozy. There is a short walk from the parking lot to the cabins. The onsite restaurant was convenient and the food is good.

Adorable little cottage 2-3 minutes walk from the main lodge and from the visitor center where tours start. Bed was super comfy, space was very clean, heater worked great. Lovely to walk outside to face the forest and hear the birds.

1-night trip

10/10

We were there for a 2 night family trip. The motel was really conveniently located right near the Visitor Center. I imagine it has not changed much in the past 50 years, aside from upkeep. It has a really cool retro vibe and the rooms are spacious. There are hiking trails all around the property and beautiful views. We loved it and would absolutely stay here again!
2-night trip

10/10

My stay was comfortable and clean. I stayed in one of the historic cabins. You cannot park your car close to the cabin, so you do have to walk with your things that you are bringing inside quite a distance. Not a problem for me, but just a heads up for people with mobility issues.

Fun to stay in a historic place.
1-night trip

6/10

We stayed in the Sunset Terrace rooms. It looked like an old motel strip. There were 4 of us. The room was clean, but too small for 4 of us. There was a good size fridge, but no table to eat on. The only choice was to eat at the common patio (with the bugs and humidity). Also spiders got in our room through the crack under the door. The parking lot was our view. The park was unique with the caves and 3 nights in the hotel room was definitely enough.

Couldn’t adjust temp. We wanted less AC. There were just skimpy blankets so the cold (in June) was uncomfortable.
