Property in poor shape. Needs cleaning remodeling. Windows in room and dining hall so dirty couldn’t see out of them. Guy behind check in desk needs more training in social skills. Dining room food average.

When we arrived we asked if there was a vacancy and were told by the clerk that yes, there were plenty of rooms available (two queen beds) as we were a family of four. We went downstairs to eat dinner and booked our room online, paid for it and it was confirmed. After dinner we tried to check in and now the same clerk told us there were no rooms available. We asked if we could get something in writing stating that he never checked us in so we could get our money back and he said his printer had no ink. We then asked him to email us instead and he said he did. We checked our email and what he sent us stated that we were confirmed and checked in. We questioned him about this after realizing he was lying and the exchange got very heated with shouting, swearing and a huge scene. In all my decades of traveling in the US and abroad, I have never experienced this! It was extremely bizarre and we literally felt like the guy ripped us off for nearly $200. It was 9:30 at night at this point and our family had to drive 30 miles outside of the national park to find lodging for the night.

Entire lodge is under construction. Hot qater barely worked. No ac in room room was 80 degrees on arrival. No mini fridge in room led to food gping bad not explained on the expedia site. Not a happy guest. I am requesting a partial refund for this stay.

It's a beautiful place, with delicious food and very friendly, helpful staff. Would have been a 5, but the bed was terrible! A cheap old mattress on a platform with a stiff, scratchy, blanket. For $250 per night, I expect better! Room was super clean, air worked well, bath towels were good quality. Location is excellent, and the view is spectacular!

When I made the reservation through Expedia, I did not know reserving a "traditional room" meant no air conditioning when it was over 90 degrees outside. Also, it was far from soundproof, so you could hear every word spoken from the room next door. I ended up paying extra fees to request an upgrade. Once upgraded, it was peaceful and cool with air conditioning. The front desk and restaurant have wonderful staff and surprisingly good-quality food.

Excellent place to stay inside of the Shenandoah National Park. Great hiking around BigMeadow or nearby Skyland. Dinning is surprisingly good for national parks. Great view right outside the dinning hall.. love to go back!
