Very convenient location along skyland drive. Short drives to many trailheads. The back porch on my room had a great view of the mountains/sky at sunset. The on-site bar/restaurant was a solid option with a good variety - good impossible burger. Room cleanliness/quality was not reflective of the ~$300 night all-in price. HVAC was very loud which is unfortunately necessary because you the windows are inoperable. Heater in the bathroom was rusted beyond belief and inoperable. Main issue on cleanliness was a blood stained pillow that the cleaning people just put a new pillow case on (noticable through the cover). I'm not sure I'd stay here again in a "premium" unit.

Beautiful area. Food was very good at both the lodge and motel. A bit pricey. Ask for the chil’s menu for smaller portions. Unfortunately it was foggy so not much to see from our room. Room was just ok. Nothing spectacular for the price we paid. No microwave. Bed mattress was flimsy. Room was clean.

During our stay there was a lot of rain. We discovered oin our 2nd night that the roof/ceiling was leaking onto our desk area under the TV...dripping every 3-4 seconds. Fortunately, we had our clothes in our suitcases elsewhere.

Skyland is my favorite place in Shanendoah. The park itself is a national treasure. This lodge has been updated and some rooms refurbished. Bring your hiking boots, great trails are literally around the corner. An ADA compliant trail is within a mile of the lodge.

You stay at Skyland for the location. What once must have been a gem in the Skyline Drive route, is now a bit worn. Food is nice but basic and on the high end of average prices. Room was not very clean but views were great. Easy access for a short trail walk from the cabins. Horse riding on site. Entertainment on certain days. Resort is well spread out and even though there seemed plenty of guests, it never felt busy.

Not what we expected based on the Orbitz website. Our room was disappointing. The Air Handler was noisy and the Bed creaked with every movement. The staff was very friendly and helpful. All-in-all the place needs more TLC and refreshing. Probably should disclose that there is an Entrance Fee to get onto the Skyline Drive, which is the only way to access Skyland.

We have stayed at Skyland a handful of times. Different rooms have differing views and it seems to be luck of the draw, but the surrounding area is always peaceful. We especially enjoyed dark skies viewing from the porch in the late PM. There were many food options at the lodge (dining room, tavern, grab and go), but no fridge in the room, so plan your meals ahead of time!

Property is a 20 minute walk away from the office. Office staff is friendly, but room service was so so - there is no daily room cleaning, and after we requested them to change the bedding they left the door unlocked with our suite case inside. There are two EV charging spot near the office only; charging the car means you'll need to do a 20-minute walk to your room; further more the number of EV charging spot is a joke and is almost always occupied. Other national park lodges (such as grand canyon) have much more spot in much more convenient spots.

We had a great stay in Skyland. The location is superb and the room (we stayed in premium room) was very clean and equipped with all required amenities. The staffs were very courteous. The on-site restaurant was also very good. Although the options were limited but considering the location it was just fine and the food was very tasty. Overall a highly recommended place.
