Great location, great views, and very peaceful. The lodge rooms are nice and the room balcony offers good views. Complimentary breakfast at the lodge restaurant was good and more than adequate. Had a small issue with housekeeping (the lack of), but not a deal breaker. A few hikes here at the park.... chained rock offers a great view, and the trail to the waterfalls was a nice walk (they were barely flowing though).

I didn't stay at the lodge. A friend lives near there and we went to supper. Gorgeous views, restaurant was nice. No buffet on that Friday but great food. Dining room was almost deserted but we went early to attend a concert later.

First the good.... The staff were amazing for the hotel. We screwed up and booked the wrong dates. They were able to fix it and get us in. Super friendly and great at what they do. The views were awesome. The location is hard to find with Google maps but we managed. All the way up is pretty much the easiest advice to give. Now the bad. The rooms have 0 sound insulation. We could hear basic conversations in the room next to ours. To make matters worse they had a dog with them that whined and barked any time they left the room. Even worse was the smoke. They have ashtrays on the balcony and people smoke right outside the rooms. The smoke could be smelled in our room and was just obnoxious. They seriously should have somewhere else to smoke further from the doors if the smoke is just going to come in everyone's rooms.

Pine Mountain Lodge is lovely. The rooms are comfortable and it is a quiet and peaceful place. But.....avoid the restaurant at all cost. The food isn't that good but the service I received for dinner on March 22nd 2023 was the worst I have ever had! Literally. When these 2 women are working, don't expect a smiling, cheerful greeting. Don't expect them to come back to you at any point and ask if everything is alright or do you need anything. Don't expect any of your dishes to be cleared and don't expect to be ask if you would like dessert, coffee or anything else when the finally drop off your check. I've never in my life seen 2 servers who were so rude, who moved so slow or who were so completely overwhelmed with 3 tables of 2 people each. I can't even image how it would go if they were actually busy. It was like it was the first day that either of them had ever worked in a restaurant. Their flat out rudeness and how incompetent they were at their jobs really ruined everything about the experience. After I waited about 15 minutes to pay my bill - remember, only 3 tables in the place- I ask to see the dinning room manager- I had to ask a person from the kitchen because the 2 women were completely ignoring me- I was told there wasn't one, which explains a lot! He did get the kitchen manager for me and she was nice, professional and knew how to treat a quest. She was the only plus in this situation. So I thank her for that Really a joke for a dinner experience in what is other wise a lovely place.

A mountain retreat, perfect for quiet meditation, and access to hiking trails with great views. Family activities, comfortable rooms, friendly staff. While the road is a bit twisty, it makes arrival fun.

Stayed in their cottage for Labor Day weekend. It was very clean and nice. They offer an outdoor pool, dining room, and bar. They offered music the night we were there. But it was not very good they needed more of a variety. They have a putt putt course. That could be really cute if it had some attention. We played on it each day. The kids absolutely loved it. Service in the dining room was very slow. Great for the outdoor lover hiking in small towns close by. We enjoyed our time there lots a fun with the family.

This is a very good place to stay. We got very late in the night. Richard checked us in and he was amazing. We had a long drive so a friendly checkin made things better. Shout out to Richards. We are still staying in the hotel so I don’t know about the breakfast buffet they offer. The views from the balcony are good . There is microwave in the checkin lobby but not in rooms nor there are fridge which is one thing to keep in mind. We were given 2 bed room n the beds were a little small hence I and my husband used different beds to sleep. I would definitely come here again.

Our room at the lodge was very clean and given the time of the year that we came we had the place basically all to ourselves. The staff and ranger were very courteous and friendly. My son and I did the Honeymoon Falls Loop trail, which we thoroughly enjoyed.

I have stopped to eat here plenty of times. Whether I'm camping in the mountains, or bear hunting like I was last weekend. They have a catfish meal that is to die for! I usually don't care for catfish but they serve it in little strips with golden brown crispy breading, hush puppies, french fries, and seasonal vegetables you can't go wrong.. they also offer a cocktail sauce with horseradish mix! I went twice in one day on my last bear hunt. First I had the catfish dinner. When I came back, they had a full Christmas dinner spread Buffet style! Turkey, cranberry sauce, stuffing, tasty desserts, macaroni and cheese, steamed carrots, full salad bar.. simply delightful! I was camping up there one time and they even offered me a free breakfast. Very nice friendly service. Everyone is so professional and cheerful. You can tell these employees really work hard and take pride in what they are doing! I've never had a bad experience in the five or six times I have been there visiting. Side note, my parents used to eat here every Saturday morning when my mother was pregnant with me and they would have the ham and cheese omelette. The View and the restaurant is beautiful overlooking the Appalachian mountains! You just can't beat it.

It's a very beautiful place! The cottages are very nice and the restaurant in the lodge has an awesome view in the mornings.

Went to lodge restaurant. Was absolutely amazing. Huge selection and service was outstanding. Food was delicious and perfect.try apple pie! Amazing

My husband I drove over just to eat in their restaurant. We tried the all you can eat salad bar and it was delicious! More choices than I could eat, vegetable beef soup and dessert along with the salad. Couldn't have asked for better service. Thank you Joe!! We'll be back again. The price for what we ate was very reasonable!

Loved our stay here beautiful place. Very friendly staff. Definitely coming back again soon. It's so peaceful up here.

This state park is well maintained and absolutely beautiful! We stayed in a cabin for three nights while attending a conference in the main lodge. The cabin is built to look primitive to what the settlers would have built. The cabin was very clean, secluded and quiet. Note- there is no Wi-Fi in the cabins and we only had one bar of cell signal which was perfectly fine with us. Also, there is not a lot of bright lighting. There are lamps and the ceiling fixture lights are dim. We enjoyed reading by the gas fireplace. If you sleep with more than one pillow, you need to bring your own. There were only two pillows on the beds and no extra blankets in the cabin. The kitchen was stocked sufficiently, no paper towels. The lodge rooms and cabins are all pet friendly, we brought our border collie with us, $50 pet fee. Check in and check out was quick and efficient. The staff were friendly. The restaurant was a nice surprise with the selection, quality and serving sizes. This is a great place to stay when visiting the area, close to many attractions and perfect for a quiet getaway to unplug.

Hosted a Family get together at the restaurant, can't say enough about the friendly staff. We had a 30 person meal, Morgan was wonderful! She was friendly and very helpful and efficient!! When I called to make the reservation, Sabrina was most helpful,most congenial I will definitely be back and recommend this location to Family and Friends!!

Beautiful quiet scenic lodge and nature trails. Very polite and friendly staff. Restaurant had all the southern food and our waitress was very attentive and sweet. Comfy beds with a balcony view of the mountains. Even a reside cat.

Another gem of a state park resort. Have a pool that looks great. We arrived too late to utilize it. Fun little mini golf course, complete with windmill. Game room, with ping pong table, another little tabletop game, and a cabinet stocked with board games. Multiple walking trails. We did Hemlock Gardens. What looked like a neat educational center. We left before it opened. Stayed for its proximity to Cumberland Gap National Park. Staff was super friendly and helpful. Had dessert at the lodge restaurant, and I highly recommend the caramel skillet cookie! Also had a BLT for breakfast, and it was good. Kids had their pancakes, you get 3, and they are yuge. Stayed in a cottage. Cottage was clean, kitchen well outfitted.
