Don’t let “dated” fool you!

The room was delightfully dated in extraordinary beautiful condition. It was like walking into my childhood family trip. I loved it!
Sure it was dated. But it was fabulous! Clean and in perfect condition.

Be careful driving there- deer are everywhere (at least they were in November!). You’re going to want to get there before check-in time ends if possible. I was there just before a closed and it didn’t get the email. They sent me with the information until much later. The rooms were nice. We did get to see wildlife outside our bedroom window, which was pretty cool. It’s a great location because you can just walk to the caves (be sure to reserve your tickets before trying to enter a cave) and hiking trail trails or catch the bus. The staff at the restaurant on property were friendly and helpful.

How cool it was to stay in the National Park right across from the visitors center. Deer walking around while i was drinking my morning coffee outside in the provided chairs. Such a neat little cabin feel in the room with a split door . So many neat things about this stay that i really enjoyed.

Road Trip to Mammoth Caves

Great time at the lodge. It doesn't get any closer to the park than being a 2 minute walk to the Visitor's Center. Toilet could use an update but other than that, rooms have everything your need and are roomy. Would Definitely stay there again if visiting the park!

The room is little old and don’t have much storage and place to hang clothes or towels. There were some constructions near by that may cause some noise.

We visited Mammoth Cave and it was incredibly convenient to stay at the Lodge. The rooms are motel style not hotel style and the bathrooms are dated. But the rooms were very clean, the area is beautiful and the location is ideas for a visit to the caves.
