Although it’s an older facility, it was a nice stay… quiet, close to the restaurant and visitor center and cave tours. Food at the restaurant was good and very reasonably priced for a national park facility.

You can't beat this for convenience since you're right in the center of the park and very near the visitor center and lodge restaurants. However, the condition of the cabin left a little to be desired, with peeling paint and questionable alignment of the door lock. It should also be noted that parking was a short walk away. But all things considered, we would stay here again.

Fantastic!

This was a fantastic stay! You have your own space, it’s walking distance to the tours, and it’s extremely peaceful. It had a full bathroom and fridge which was very convenient as well. We’d highly recommend this stay!
