A Hidden Gem in the Shenandoah
We just stumbled upon Lydia Mountain Lodge looking for a quiet retreat for New Year's Eve, but were pleasantly surprised that we did. Such a hidden gem in the Blue Ridge mountains. Clean, comfortable, warm, and rustic. We just stayed for a couple of nights in the middle of winter, but imagine it is even better in the warmer months. We enjoyed making a fire in the open hearth of the main room, the wonderful restaurant, and the New Year's Eve party. We will definitely be back to stay and recommend this to anyone looking for a quiet retreat in the Shenandoah.

Nice get away
We stayed for one night and it was a nice get away. The view from the room was great and we enjoyed the theme of our room. We want to check out another room on our next stay.
Thank you!

Absolutely Fantastic Getaway
We stayed the night after Jeep Invasion. Not only was the staff friendly and helpful all day long, the location was gorgeous, the room wonderfully decorated and the rocking chairs on the back porch with that view was incredible. Also had dinner and brunch at the restaurant which also had great service and we highly recommend the brisket for dinner! We had the best time and are looking forward to staying at the lodge again soon!

Beautiful place
Lodging was five stars! Beautiful property and well maintained. I’m a Chef, for over 35 years, and I usually don’t critique, but the restaurant, fell short of my expectations. I ordered the brisket, highly disappointed! Did not expect, pulled brisket! Restaurant staff seemed to not be properly trained. Just my opinion! Thank you !!
