Reviews
"The staff at Cardigan Lodge are wonderful! The food was amazing! The hikes are stunning but can be brutal."
"What a surprise! We were invited to a wedding held at the Lodge/Meadow... and WOW! So pleasantly surprised with not just the venue but the meals and the friendliness and the staff... It was truly a fantastic weekend. There was air conditioning (and with 100+ people it was necessary). The grounds were well maintained and the pond kept both adults and kids amused. The food was AMAZING -bride and groom requested vegan and it was some of the best vegan food I've ever had (I'm not a newbie and from the Philly area). All in all... This exceeded my expectations... And made for a very blissful wedding weekend."
"No rooms wheelchair accessible so didn't stay. Was there for a wedding so thee place was rented out for the weekend. Lol This is not a place that is easy to get around, took two to three people to help with my wheelchair going up and down to wedding ceremony and photos. All that aside the people working there where absolutely wonderful. The food was great. Up on top of a mountain with lots of flower in bloom the view all around was beautiful."
"We were in one of the campsites and loved it! The staff are great and very helpful. The Cardigan Mt. area is a hurtful location. After a day of hiking the pond at the lodge is so refreshing."
"We stayed two nights, three days at Cardigan Lodge during August. The Lodge and surrounding grounds were beautiful and well-cared for. The AMC staff running the place were very helpful, enthusiastic and happy to answer questions. We stayed in the Lodge itself, where the rooms were extremely clean and the bed (surprisingly!) comfortable. We hiked the more difficult trail up to Mt. Cardigan and the staff at the Lodge were happy to assist us with route planning beforehand. To top it all off, the food service was delicious and abundant; they catered to my vegan diet and made special options just for me! We needed the relaxation, and our experience at Cardigan Lodge delivered. Would recommend."
