The Woodlands Cabins where we stayed which are part of The Lodge at Mammoth Cave are conveniently located across from the Mammoth Cave visitors center. They are rustic little cabins which we did not mind. The gentlemen at the front desk was very friendly and helpful. The grounds are beautiful, close to many hiking trails and deer roam the property. Overall a very nice stay with our grandchildren.

Nice two bedroom cabin probably built in the 1940s. Some modern upgrades like A/C. No TVs in the room. This is a cabin, not a hotel, it’s a cool experience for a night or so. I don’t think I would stay any longer than that as we didn’t have sufficient hot water for showers. It’s very convenient to the visitor center and hiking trails. Overall I recommend it’s a cool experience and the kids liked it.

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!
