Enjoyable overnight stay in historic cabin
Pros:

Cabins are quaint and well maintained. They are within easy walking distance to the visitors centre and restaurants but set back near the woods away from the main day visitors activities. Enjoyed seeing the wild turkeys emerge at dawn.

Cons:

There is currently building work going on so it can be a little noisy through the day. The walk to / from the restaurant is not lite so bare that in mind.

Horrible enough we left before our reservation was complete
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

The cabins were a distance from the cabins, the walls had paint cracked and flaking off the walls, the hot water tank lid in the closet area kept sliding around because it was all rusty and lifted with age, the heater was loud snd old, the bathroom heater was very old and rusted over on the grate covering it. The plugs on all the lights were old and didn’t fit the plugs tight. Whole cabin was a danger and many potential fire hazards were present

drove 1800 miles round trip to see the Mammoth cave. Never knew how limited access was.
Pros:

The park is quite beautiful. Somewhat disappointed with the limited access to the cave itself. Quite unique in its 400 miles !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1. Caves we have visited in the past had EASIER access to the areas of mineral deposition.

Cons:

AS ABOVE

Great location in the park
Pros:

Stayed in historic cabin #1. it was very clean and bed was comfortable. There was a drip coffee pot and a small fridge. No internet but could connect a short walk to lodge. These are old cabins so are a bit rustic. The floor was wood and a bit wavey.They have a bit of peeling paint and a bit damp but the air conditioner /heater work well and the price was good. They also had 2 outdoor chairs and a nearby picnic table

Cons:

A bit musty smelling
