If you have a soft spot for Americana then you’ll love the Wigwam. I myself appreciate the authenticity and history of this place. The original furniture and tile work only adds to the charm of the hotel which has stood the test of time for 75 years. The owner is very friendly and though the place could use some TLC... More

We had often heard of the place you can sleep in a TeePee. It piqued our interest and thought we'd make a weekend trip to see the Dinosaurs and Guntown Mountain. It was a quaint little town that has seen it's better days. The nostalgia wasn't lost on us, however. The groundskeeper needs to dust off the weedeater and the... More

If you are looking for a hotel, pass this place up. Its more like camping with a few amenities. There is a very small television(with cable) and a window unit air conditioner. The furniture is antique cane furniture so it is very old. Everything was clean though and that is really all I care about. I stayed with my husband... More

I've wanted to stay here since I was a child in the 1950's. Sixty years later, my wife and I fulfilled that dream while visiting the Kentucky Repertory Theatre in nearby Horse Cave. The wigwams still show evidence of the unique snapshot of Americana that they were when first built. I wish they had an owner who saw the potential... More

We had a great stay! For those who have read the bad reviews – it was clean. The floor, the towels, the sheets, the shower, and bathroom. It was safe – our door locked and had a chain lock too. The grass was cut and trimmed, the grounds looked cared for. The manager was affable and helpful. Now for the... More

I've stayed here twice, 10 years ago on spring break and one night of my recent honeymoon. While in the smoky mountains my husband and I decided to go home through cave city, so we stayed in the city's most famous motel. Of course the floor is dusty and the wigwams smell musty! This place is a national treasure, a... More

Summer 2012, my mother (who, I will add, has extreme mobility issues) fulfilled a years-old dream of mine to stay the night in a Cave City Wigwam. Living in a bordering county all my life and loving trips to Mammoth Cave, I had often passed the wigwams, which would pique my curiosity. Recently, the two of us needed a two-day... More

This was a very unique experience we wanted our young relatives to have! The kids loved everything about our one-night stay! They loved sleeping in a wigwam (with cable to boot!) and they loved the playground and playing with other kids staying there. The adults enjoyed sitting on the benches around the wigwams, watching the children play. The room was... More

This place is definitely rundown. If you are looking for an experience, then this is the place for you. Our 9 year old twins enjoyed it and thought is was neat to stay there but the beds were so uncomfortable. The wigwam had a unit air conditioner that made serious noise at night that went along with the noise from... More

This place gets a 5 for cuteness, friendliness and price, though it is quite rundown. The Indian (not Native American!) owners were very friendly. The room was clean and adorable, and at $40/night, it was a great deal! However the place is overall pretty rundown, needing new paint, some tlc on the furniture, and desperately needs new beds! It's a... More
