Close to the Mammoth Cave tours. The room was aged but very clean and staff were amazing. Food at the lodge was good, but a bit pricey. The breakfast options were very limited at the dine-in restaurant.

The room was nice and the staff was amazing, but pass on the "historic cottages" as they are a bit rough. The rangers who conducted the tours are well versed and quite knowledgeable about the caves and the park.

We stayed in the Woodland cottages, which was right across from Mammoth Cave visitors Center parking lot - so the proximity was great - however trying to find parking on a weekend was hard. The cabin itself was exactly what you'd expect a cabin to be - no frill electronics, but did have a heater/ac...a mini fridge and coffee. I would stay again.

The woodland cottages were perfect for our stay. Everything was clean. There is no microwave or cooking gear of any kind in the cabin so be prepared for sandwiches, or there are grills less than a 5 min walk away. 10/10

Staff was great and check in was easy. The cottages are very cute..but outdated! There were bugs flying into the room through the air vents. The bed felt comfy at first, but sagged towards my heavier partner. There was no microwave, and the mini fridge was very loud and made odd noises throughout the night. The toilet leaked a bit on our second night. Expect a very rustic feel in the National Park!
