We stayed in one of the buildings near the lodge. They charged $259 for a Saturday night in mid May for a room that had cobwebs behind both beds. The door to the room was peeling from the bottom from obvious water damage. We had millipeds on the floors. The building is really old and musty and the weather stripping is not sufficient to keep the critters out. They shouldn't be charging that price for a room like this. I get paying more for the location, but this was not worth it.

The food was horrible, low quality. Tasted like reheated package food. The power went out at midnight, so of course my cpap stopped working. It didn't come back on so no warm shower in the morning. No coffee or breakfast. If that wasn't bad enough, these people had the audacity to refuse to reimburse for the night to anyone. Finally, days later, they told me because I had the cpap issue, they would be willing to call Expedia and ask for a 50% reimbursement. If you are a hotel and you can't keep the power on because you can't maintain a generator, then you owe every visitor a full reimbursement.

Driving the Skyline Road is most enjoyable. The Big Meadow Lodge affords the extra pleasure of a break, good food and a surprisingly comfortable cabin inside the Shenandoah park.

Beautiful secluded cabins in an incredible area. The walls are pretty thin, but everyone there was really quiet. Easy access to good hiking, and walking around the property itself was really cool.

Property is a gorgeous setting inside the national park. Rooms are dated but quaint. Bed was comfortable, bathroom was ok, could use an upgrade. Overall nice place with a nice dining room where our meal was good.
