I love historical hotels and homes and Putnam Lodge is so well maintained with historical details. The staff are very nice and the restaurant is great. The peacocks walking around the yard were an added bonus.

This is an older hotel that has a very interesting history. It’s worth the time to enjoy the artwork found throughout the lodge. Everyone on staff that we encountered was friendly and helpful and we found the other people who stayed there to be delightful. The bed was extremely comfortable! The only complaint I had was there was music playing at least until 11:00 pm. It then resumed early the next morning. I think it was coming from their beautiful back courtyard?

Ok, this is a mixed review for all the couples out there. We accidentally found this place. I am a history nerd and I absolutely fell in love with this place. I made 8 different videos, walked the halls over and over, sat in the study and read the newspaper clippings of the history of it, visited the dining room, chatted with people in the cafe kitchen, and sat in front of the fire in the morning. This was a literal dream vacation stay for me, at a phenomenal price. My husband, he hated it. To him, I booked us an old, haunted hotel. He loathed every single non-modern amenity from the “community a/c” to the closets and doors and cast iron bath tub. There is a TV, electricity, an in-room fridge and an A/C vent - so it’s not like you’re at the turn of the 20th century, but it might as well have been to him. I seriously thought we might fight. lol. In the end, we both slept phenomenally. He said it was the best night’s sleep he had in a hotel. We we had gone to the dollar store the night before and picked up a cheap mini fan and it all worked out. So the final verdict - if you love resorts, and ultra-modern, probably keep driving. If you want a one-of-a-kind stay and you’re an easygoing type or love history and charm, you are going to be in heaven.

This is a very old hotel. The antiques are lovely but the room was quite old. The carpet needed cleaned and there are very few outlets in the room. The bathroom is very small but had been renovated so it was nice but we couldn’t get hot water and keep it. It just wasn’t worth the money we paid to stay there.
