We've stayed at the Canyon Inn several times in the past, and are always pleased. The inn has so much character and historic value! We stayed in a queen room, which was nice and big and decorated with a sweet quilt and nature prints. The bathroom was very spacious though somewhat dated. My only real complaint is that the mattress... More

Stayed at the Canyon Inn for a conference recently. Had a 1 double bed room. Small but nice and cozy. Clean and comfortable. Off the lobby there is a very nice room with a large fireplace , rocking chairs, sofas and numerous tables that people can just sit and chat or play board games. Very relaxing atmosphere. Will come again.

We (2 grandsons and myself) spent two nights at the Canyon Inn. We had a studio room with two queen beds and sofa bed. The room also had table with chairs, desk with chair, fridge and micro-wave. We had plenty of room and ate breakfast in the room before going out for the day. The boys enjoyed the pool and... More

Had a great time at the state park. This was our second time staying at the Inn. Prices were good. The room had one queen bed which was comfortable and the room was large enough for the rollaway bed (not so comfortable). The furnishings were dated and can use an upgrade. Bathroom was clean, but dated as well. Small sink... More

Wonderful stay. Older hotel, but our room was very clean and well kept up. All of the staff we met were very friendly. Very nice pool. Yes, the room was pretty small, but we were outside in the Park all day and they do have a very big bonus room on the first floor with multiple tables and chairs for... More

We can highly recommend the Canyon Inn for a wedding site. The staff supported us in every way possible. The oak room was set up with white tablecloths and ready for us to decorate. The buffet meal for the wedding reception was delicious and the waitstaff was very accommodating. All of our needs were met with gracious smiles and welcoming... More

This year was the 30th year in a row that the Association of College Ministries used the Canyon Inn for our annual retreat. The staff are wonderful, especially their sales director Donna Kay. The meals are varied and tasty. The atmosphere is serene. The rooms are what you would expect of a state park and they even have wifi most... More

We stayed at the Inn even though they had some family cabins available. The rooms are small and have no fridge or microwave. This place is more for the outdoor and expect to use the room only for sleep and daily essentials! Lovely trails and a waterfall within walking distance (0.8miles). Tricky terrains so got to watch out. Lots of... More

The Indiana state lodges are always friendly Americana. The commons areas are casual and relaxing, though the board games could use some refurbishing and updating. Gotta love the buffet in the restaurant. Our room was small but all we needed, since we spent most of our time in the restaurant or exploring the canyon.
