This historic venue was a fun place to stay. The owner is restoring the places back to their original condition with a few upgrades. It will be very nice when they are completed. We plan to book all of these for a private stay in the future.

More electric outlets would have been appreciated but I saw that newer rooms they are renovating will have more

The room was clean and well kept. The space was bit small, but that’s to be expected given the age and uniqueness of the room

The bed was uncomfortable

Take a step back in time with this restored treasure! The new owners have taken great pride in not only restoring this iconic place but also bringing back the sense of community. The owner lights a fire each night for guests to sit around and enjoy, have conversation & get to know each other. The furnishings are mostly original as well as the interior.

No ventilation in bathroom BUT they had a poof spray for bad odors so it wasn’t horribly bad

Sleeping comfortably in a national treasure

The room is distinctive and comfortable, the bonfire in the center of the wigwams was welcoming after a day sightseeing caves and museums, our wigwam neighbor was friendly, and the owner was super informative and helpful. Also, the owner's cat is a chill cutiepie.

I have no complaints. Some people may be surprised at the size of the rooms. But going in knowing what to expect helps. The rooms are round and cozy.

The owner took time to tell us about the history of the Wigwam Village, and recommended great places to eat nearby, and family friendly things to do nearby. The stay is very family focused and encourages meeting other travelers out in the center of the village. Nightly bonfires, playground for kids. It was great!

Electricals worked but didn't want to plug in too many items at once. Did not feel comfortable leaving heater on overnight but was warm enough. Could not reach cord for overhead light.

Unique, cozy accommodations in an historic motel. Everything you need for a short stay. Good location close to Mammoth Caves as well as other caves in the area. Owners offered a short history of the village when checking in. Quiet overnight. Nice large area for kids to play. WiFi in room.

The rooms were pretty small as expected - I wouldn't want to stay more than one night. I would totally stay again though.

Such a cute hotel with history.

Staying at the Wigwam was a bucket list item for my wife, who didn't have the opportunity to do so as a child. It was everything she desired.

Love that the owners are so passionate about restoring the wigwam village no 2! We were greeted with a sit down brief story about the history of the wigwam village. We stayed in #7 which had 2 very comfortable beds, a wooden chair, luggage rack, small vanity and bathroom. Also equipped with a little coffee pot, tv, wifi and a heater. The rooms were very clean and I can’t wait to stay again! The outside area has a slide, swing, merry go round, bags(corn hole) boards and a big fire pit for everyone to gather around. Excited to see future renovations!

That we weren't able to spend more time there and explore the whole Mamouth cave area. We'll be back!

Love the history and the owners passion for the place. A true piece of Americana!

It is still being renovated and it was cold when I stayed. The electric heater was not up to the job. If it was warmer outside, it would not have been an issue at all. The do offer air conditioning in the rooms.

Great historic lodge. It is being renovated as near to original as possible. The owners are very happy to share the history of the lodge and give great tips for dinner and breakfast. Definitely recommend this place. The village is within 12 minutes of many attractions including Mammoth Caves national park and dinosaur world.

That I couldn't stay longer!!!

I absolutely adore how cozy the wigwams are. I will definitely be coming back again, and hopefully can stay more than one night! It was clean, the bed was very comfortable, and it made for the perfect birthday getaway.

Really not much not to like. We understood going in that there were some renovations going on when we arrived, and we loved it.

This was a 1st for us and we'll definitely be back. The men had to plan the weekend with the hopes that our spouses would be surprised, and I think we succeeded. Great hosts and the history behind the Wigwams was something that I had never known.

News owners restoring the place instead of remodeling

Historic location, lovingly restored to its 1930s style. Smores around the bonfire with other guests was a highlight of our 2 week trip. Intro on arrival was wonderful.

The only thing I can say is that the parking spot isn't clearly labeled - I had to search for the number on the parking block. But this is minor!

We liked that this historic property is being revived and preserved by people who care about it'sorigins. We had a wonderful welcome from the owner. His presentation about the history and what is taking place today made us respect his property and effort even more.

The motel is a restoration in progress, and it would have been nice for the historic cafe to have been open. We were told that that is in the works for next year.

We loved staying in this classic bit of historic Americana. Our host, Keith, gave us a great welcome with the history of this site on the National Historic Register. Our teepee was very clean, with original furniture, a great comfortable mattress and bedding, with everything being a throwback to a simpler time. The evening campfire was the perfect touch, and the play area with vintage playground toys was great to see.
