Reviews for White Pines Lodge in Mt Morris, IL
The place is nice, very peaceful and relaxing atmosphere. We love the restaurant - food was delicious. However the cabin was... not too clean (lots of bugs in between window frames, little web on the corners etc) Fortunately on the last day of the stay wesaw a small mouse in the cabin. It?s nature?. but obviously you don't want to see mice in the room. Read more
We've been coming here since the 1970s (before they had TVs in the cabins. We brought our old b&w portable one year to watch the... Falcon Crest season premiere episode one year) and it has remained WONDERFUL each time. It's one of the few places on the planetwhere we can relax. The staff ALWAYS has been great. We'll keep coming back until we can't. Read more
The lodge at White Pines State Park is awesome, great venue for a variety of events. The log construction was completed in the... 30's, when they knew how to build things right. If you like that type of building, you'll love this one. Just a gorgeousplace, including the surrounding forest! Read more
Lovely cabins in the woods of beautiful, old white pines. My mate thought them rustic. I had to laugh. There is a comfortable... bed, a shower and sink, a mini-fridge, and a TV with cable. It's very clean. Don't depend on good internet connection for theTV. It stopped and refreshed a lot, but who needs TV with the woods. Very friendly staff who make reservations. I had to canceland make another date. They accommodated me. Lovely gift shop. The truffles are to die for. The restaurant at White Pines Lodgewas disappointing. My mate had dined there before and said it was great. Sadly he changed his opinion. His pork dish looked lessthan appetizing, and it was. I had chicken pot pie. Great crust and buttery sauce but very little chicken. All the chickendishes were not available. It could be the meal was not great because they were so busy as I was told. We went during OregonDays. I would give them a second chance. All in all, I enjoyed the experience. I could go cheaper and what I consider rustic,but it sure beats a motel or hotel room. After all, you have woods and trails at your back door. Read more
All the food at restaurant was very good, waitress and staff were very friendly. We had walleye, meatloaf, grilled lime chic... w/roasted potatoes and broccoli, chic strips and blueberry pancakes. Husband really loved the meatloaf and blueberry pancakes!Wasn't happy that menu not available on Sat. Am.it was buffet,, which was ok. I was set to try the blueberry pancakes formyself,, coffee was very good. We stayed in cabin 4 and it was not as great of an experience housekeeping needs improved-deepercleaning. Coffee pot was not usable too limed up.. Decor was nice. Mattress was uncomfortable for us, too soft, hard to movearound. Small shower with great water pressure w/bodywash, shampoo and conditioner available. Air conditioner worked well. Nicefireplace, too hot to try it though! Cabin surrounded by woods nice park great hiking. Read more

We went there for the buffet breakfast. The food was delicious, large variety of food to choose from scrambled the eggs,... pancakes, stuffed French toast, quiche, sausage, bacon and more. It's all you can eat. I felt the price was a little highcompared to other buffets. Cute gift shop. Read more
