10/10 Excellent
"My only complaint was the lack of early morning coffee! The Inn was old and quaint, but could have had a little more attention to detail with the cleanliness. It’s hard to keep a room full of antiques dust-free. But we expected a historic place to be a little rough around the edges. It wasn’t a big issue. I enjoyed walking around the property and relaxing on the porch. Great location for Mammoth National Park. Owners were kind and beds were cozy."

The Maple Retreat at Park Mammoth

10/10 Excellent
"Communication was proactive and showed a genuine concern for our comfort during our stay. There was an error in double booking on the property’s end and they made extra accommodations for us and went out of their way to make sure we were taken care of. The owner is a very kind person and reached out on a few occasions to ensure we had everything we needed. The cabin was beautiful, well maintained, and clean, and had great amenities for cooking. We enjoyed the brand new grill outside and also used the fire pit and enjoyed the local hiking trail. It is close to Mammoth Cave and we really enjoyed spending half the day at the park then relaxing at the cabin for the rest of the day. Highly recommend!!! (Side note - we are now at our next cabin destination of our road trip and we are missing the comfort and amenities at Maple Retreat!)"
