I give this place 5 stars for young families, new hikers and old people. Consider it a prep for the Red River Gorge.
I give it 3 stars for experienced hikers. I found all the big bold arrows painted along the trails to be WAY over the top. The greatest reward of hiking is the feeling of accomplishment you get by figuring things out and overcoming your self imposed limitations. At Carter Caves, they've decided to dumb it down for everyone.
The state park system has been on a starvation diet for a long time. The "Nation's Finest" just isn't.

Lovely place to stay with hiking and activities right on site. Ir would have been nice to have a microwave but otherwise very comfortable.

Stayed at the lodge with only a handful of other guests, being in the off season. Birthday adventure weekend! Our room was a king, nicely furnished and clean with small balcony behind to view sunsets. It had everything save a microwave. The lodge features a dining room and cozy great room with wood fired fireplace, staff is very friendly. While at the park we hit trails and toured a few caves though the area boasts of several of each. Natural bridges too, which are always a neat sight, especially large ones. If you enjoy Red River Gorge, you will definitely enjoy Carter 🙂.

We stayed at the Lodge. Let me start with the positives, room was clean and rate was really good. However, we stayed on the lower floor since there was no luggage racks or elevator. Sadly, we could hear everything through the ceiling. It sounded like they were roller skating up there. It’s so bad that I heard them unzip a bag. They desperately need to put some deadening noise barrier in ceiling and walls. My wife had an injuring on one of the trails. A wooden step was loose at one of the bridges and caused her to fall. If you’re looking for a cheap place to stay, this is it. If you’re looking for peace and quiet, better stay on upper floor but you’ll be lacking your stuff up the stairs.

Great staff but nearly impossible to find in the dark for first timers.

A lovely surprise. Super cute old school park resort. Nicely reno'd rooms. Not the most comfortable beds, but I'm picky.

There was water in the ice bucket, bathroom had broken tiles and exposed pipes. Sink was not put together properly so dirty around facet. Had a ground floor room while people above were very noisy.
