    Kohl’s Lodge is a clean and quiet respite cozily nestled in the trees of the Tonto Nat. Forest. Between Holbrook (Petrified National Park area) and Phoenix AZ, it is an excellent retreat from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. KR is super clean, has great amenities, and very accommodating to families and the solo traveler looking for a peaceful place to spend some time. I’ve stayed here three times and am always amazed by how reinvigorated I feel after each visit. Friendly, welcoming staff and I always feel welcome. Check it out- you won’t be let down!!

    The main problem of this property is the lack if restaurante on Monday and Tuesday, it is very inconvenient to have to drive 15 minutes to town for food. The hotel does not even offer continental breakfast or other tupe if breakfast.

    We were given one of the worst rooms by the parking… people park their car with engine idling on our room. Asked to change room since we checked in earlier than most, but were told that because we booked by 3rd party (Hotels.com) they keep their better rooms to their direct clients… shocking!!

    The hotel is nice. The restaurant sucks. Clam chowder, had no clams, the french fries were dead, cold, and greasy, the cheeseburger wasnt bad, but the bun was better. It took 20 minutes to get waited on and 30 minutes to get the cold food. The restaurant hours and days of operation is ridiculous. Closed Monday and Tuesday. Strange hours the rest of the time. This pace is in the middle of nowhere. It is important the restaurant is open everyday. Otherwise you have to drive back to Payson for breakfast which ruins the idea of staying so far out.

    Unlike most reviews we had wifi the whole time. We were in the main building close to the front desk. TV options very limited. No premium channels. Free DVD movies might be fine if you have kids or are under 40. Wed. night, only the bar was open for food and closed at 8pm. There are no close options so if you are a captive, at least the bar might stay open till 10pm. Bar music playing in the courtyard by the pool and jacuzzi at 8:30 am. Perhaps some peace an quiet in the morning. All being said had a nice time.
