Friendly, friendly, friendly staff. They waited for us for our late check in. Small room but so unique and historic. Don't look for the Waldorf here but it is such a special place and part of our nation's history. Definitely worth staying to be a part of that and be close to the magical feeling of the area and the... More

The Oregon Caves Chateau is one of the most peaceful, beautiful, hidden gems in Oregon. We checked in last week (on opening day) and the staff were absolutely fantastic. We got an economy room, and it exceeded our expectations...while it was very basic, it had all we needed, the view was still fantastic, and we had the sound of the... More

We went to visit the Caves not knowing that a hotel/lodge was on site. It was one of those out of the past, perfectly kept, lodges. The rooms themselves are very basic, but that not why you'd stay here. It is old and exact as it was. You want to wander the paths and enjoy the lobby. A very pleasant... More

The winding butterfly covered road up to the caves was a great indication of how nice this stay was We stayed in the haunted room, which was very spacious. The decor, walls, and ceiling oozed vintage charm, giving no indication of the current decade and although it lacked most lacked modern updates (the sprinkler system made a nice coat rack)... More

If you plan to visit the Oregon Caves (HIGHLY recommended) then you may want to consider staying at least one night at the historic Oregon Caves Chateau. Mind you, there is NOTHING fancy about the accommodations, however the lodge itself is rustic beauty personified! The Oregon Caves and Oregon Caves Chateau are nestled in the Siskiyou Mountains, and the views... More

The Historic chateau has a woodsy charm! Surrounded by antiques and comfortable chairs, the lobby is a wonderful place to settle with a good book and a cup of hot tea! The rooms are plain and clean. There are no TV's and no Internet, so if you want to get away from it all this is the place to stay... More

I'd never heard of Oregon Caves and discovered the lodge because of the PBS documentary. Unlike other park lodges, most of the Chateau is in it's original condition. Yes it is creaky and the walls are thin but it is charming. The National Park Service is currently considering whether or not to save the Chateau, and hopefully they will decide... More

The Oregon Caves is out of the way - but a fun and funky experience. This place is off the beaten path - and the lodge is an historic treasure. This place is disconnected - from TV, the Internet, cell phones ........ It is a place to commune with nature and get away from disturbances. To hike, see the caves,... More

It was a real treat to be able to stay at the Chateau as part of our trip to the Oregon Caves but it may not suit everyone. Yes, the walls are thin and our ceiling was a patchwork of internal pipework. Yes, it can take a little while for hot water to reach your room (which may well have... More

I saw this Lodge on a PBS documentary entitled "Lodges of the Northwest". It is a beautiful old hotel with lots of character. This hotel does not have any modern amenities such as internet, pool, work out room, tv's etc. My husband and I enjoyed taking hikes before dinner and doing a puzzle in one of the side rooms. The...

Official Description (provided by the hotel):
The Chateau is a six-story structure with a reinforced concrete foundation and a superstructure of wood frame construction with enormous post and beam interior supports. The building spans a small gorge and a great deal of the building's mass is banked into that depression. The first floor houses mechanical equipment. The second contains basement storage areas. The dining room, coffee shop and kitchen areas are on the third floor--at the same level as the lower trout pool grotto at the immediate head of the gorge. The fourth floor is at road level and contains the entrance lobby and some hotel rooms. The two upper stories have additional hotel rooms. Exterior walls are shiplap siding sheathed with cedar bark, giving the building a shaggy, rustic appearance. ... more   less
