Really wonderful space to enjoy fall leaves! Restaurant has good meals and everyone is very kind. Do beware that there are lots of steps to some rooms and no elevator! I got lucky - I can’t walk steps and they found me a replacement room that kept me from having to leave. I’m ver appreciative of the efforts made.
I have been coming to Big Meadows since the 1950s. It is a old Historic Lodge and that needs to be considered. It has aged well since it opened in 1939. I have many fond memories.
