The front desk staff was excellent. The location is 5out of 5! Room was great and clean. The only thing subpar was the breakfast: Not hot, and small a selection. But the location.

I rented a cabin but they double booked us. So put us in a room that I didnt want. Then got to the room, and sheets were dirty and shower was gross. Its nice there are a few trails very close by, but the trails are pretty short so dont plan on spending the entire day hiking.

Beautiful location with hiking right outside your door Restaurant right on site with a decent menu and good food Nice little bar that just reopened that has an impressive bourbon selection and a great guy behind the bar I look forward to making another trip back there in the summer to take advantage of the pool and other amenities

Like most KY state parks the facility is a little dated, but the staff was helpful, the breakfast was a good adder, the location was central to lots of trails and activities and overall it was a great choice at a good value.

The night employees weren’t very helpful! They didn’t tell us where we should park to be near our room. I finally asked and the person said I was waiting for you to ask. I called front desk because we were only getting one channel and she says I really don’t know the answer so I asked well can you ask someone and find out and she says well, if you’re only getting one channel then that’s all you’re going to get. The TV wouldn’t show full screen either. On a positive note, it was very convenient for the hiking there. The rooms are a bit old and no microwave but clean. There was a constant running of the bathtub faucet and even with the door closed I could hear it all night.

We LOVED our cabin. It was a short walk to the lodge and hiking trails. The cabin had everything we needed.

The cottage was cute, but the smell of smoke from the uncleared fireplace was so strong that it kept my son and I up most of the night.

It was a good trip and I loved the view

Great place

Clean and comfortable rooms. Staff was helpful and pleasant. Location was convenient to all hiking trails. Restaurant served good food. Will definitely stay again.

So glad we found this place. Would have liked to sit at the bar but it wasn’t open. Otherwise great stay.

Worst beds ever!! Hard as a rock mattress with no health code required mattress protectors on the beds. When I inquired at the front desk, I was told all the beds were like that and she gave me the name of the park manager Tim Hibbard as to be the one who didn't think keeping guests free from bed bugs or soiled mattresses was important. Other wise, everything else was fine.

Check in was fast except if you have any questions about the property, the front desk give you attitude for taking up their time watching Netflix and gossiping about their family. Got to our cottage and inspected the place. I saw mold under the sink and shower, 25 baby spiders in the corner of the room, and 7 daddy long legs in the closet, rust on the whole fridge from the outside to the inside. I made the front desk aware of my issues and she said they already knew about the mold that it won’t be resolved. I just felt unsafe my whole trip to sleep there. You need a tetanus shot to stay in the cottages! At least offer us to move to the inn!

It was a huge cottage. Water pressure was low but it wasnt bad. The steps going up could be challenging for some. 49 steps to grt to the cottage.

When we first arrived the room we had had no hot water they couldn’t move us because there was no other rooms available on Saturday. They finally moved us to another room at like 3 o’clock in the afternoon and the water pressure was like nonexistent, but there was hot water, but not even enough hot water to fill the tub to take a bath. We have been staying here for years and I’m super unhappy with our last day. No hot water couldn’t move us and then the terrible water Pressure Not the best day I’ve had there.

I did not like that there was no ice in the ice machine. And I had to go back to the desk twice to have my room cards redone because they would not work!!! Ky Parks you can do better!!!!

Love the hiking and wildlife

awesome

The Lodge provided a nice place to sleep and shower after hiking all day. I did not use the Lodge’s breakfast or any other food or drink services. The location was great for accessing the Red River Gorge and was an awesome hike in - hike out site for the trails at the Natural Bridge. Commutation wise, it’s pretty much on you. The front counter personnel could be a little more friendly and personable, it is the hospitality industry. I give the total stay 4 stars. I would definitely stay there again. The only complaint I have isn’t directed towards the Lodge, but to some if the inconsiderate guests. The people next door to me stomped around, talked, loudly, and slammed every door that they opened. Hikers like to get up and out early, but not everyone does. People need to try to be quiet when getting up and out early. This includes talking when walking along the balcony or sidewalk to the parking lot. No need to be loud. I was in Phoenix m, AZ a month ago and the same inconsideration was occurring in the hotel u was staying in. Please be considerate of others when staying in hotels, lodges, etc.

Very beautiful cottage and comfortable accommodations

We had a wonderful time. The cabin was safe, clean, and warm. We went hiking and everything was easy to find. The restaurant at the resort was very good and affordable. We definitely planning on going back. The staff was very friendly.

The lodge is located in the park with easy access to the trails. The room and buildings in general are older and worn out.

If you come expecting a five star experience you will be disappointed, but we came for the amazing location, with access to great hiking, and found the lodging experience to be better than anticipated. We rented a one bedroom cabin and found it adequate. My one suggestion would be more lighting. We heard some of the cabins had long stairways to access but our was fine. We also were told that the walk to the lodge was not advised so we drove there for dinner, but next morning we did walk over for breakfast and it was not a problem at all. Both of our meals were very good, again not fine dining but I enjoyed the Kentucky hot brown for dinner, and the sausage gravy and biscuits for breakfast and both were very tasty!. The servers at dinner were very sweet and helpful and couldn't have been more enthusiastic. We will likely return.

It's a very good place to stay, we enjoyed ourselves thoroughly

We checked in very late and were still greeted with as much enthusiasm as we would have been if we checked in at 3pm. Staff is incredibly nice.

Great rooms at an amazing location. Perfect place to spend a day or a week.

The bath tub was not clean. Didn’t realize this until I was actually bathing.

Beautiful mountain view! Easy walk to the Natural Bridge.

Beautiful

The staff is always so friendly!

We stayed in a 2 bedroom cottage and the cottage was in very poor condition. It smelled, and I’m not sensitive to smells; the windows upstairs had no screens so bugs would enter, but the window had to be open due to the smell of the place. The bathtub drain didn’t work and the shower backed up. The staff were not available to repair it. This cabin #203 was in disrepair and was not a homey spot. I’ll be booking alternate lodging next time I’m in the area.

Kentucky has some very nice Lodges in the State Park system, this is one. Beautiful fall weather. Staff was very helpful and pleasant.
