We stayed at Magnolia Creek Lodge with three other couples for our friend’s 50th birthday. First off the staff were all so friendly, fun, helpful and accommodating. They made sure we all were happy with our rooms and had everything we needed. The Lodge is in a quiet location, beautiful inside and out. The decor and warmth was very unlike any hotel, pictures do not do it justice. We stayed in the King Jr. Suite and it surpassed our expectations in comfort, size; and everything we could need to make our stay perfect. The bathroom was large with a tub and a separate shower, double sinks, clean, and with all the necessities.The bed was very comfortable and the room super clean. We will definitely stay there again anytime we are in the area.

After searching for a hotel, which took hours, I found Magnolia Creek. I loved everything from the front staff to my beautiful cabin..The cabin was spotless, comfortable and quiet..check in and out was seamless. I enjoyed the complimentary breakfast items in the mini fridge as I sat on the back porch, enjoying nature! I will definitely come back! This is my second visit to Magnolia Creek! This time, staying in the Lodge. Again, I enjoyed my visit. The rooms in the lodge surpassed my expectations..beautiful and clean, as always! The main sitting area in the lodge is decorated wonderfully and makes you feel right at home! Guess what, they now serve beer. It is delicious and very reasonably priced! I also had the chance to meet another couple staying here while chatting over a beer! I will be back in December, reservation is already made! Again, it was made by another family member, and I let them know that I needed to come back here!! Btw.. for the owner, thank you for the comfort and the great homey feel! This is the only place that I've found that keeps everything so clean, fresh and smelling wonderful! Aka Copeland is the name I check in under!

It’s a little off the “normal” trails but it’s slightly secluded and not very busy. Very well kept and the rooms are very clean. Pricing is just right. Not over priced. We stayed in a room but they have cabins available that look very cozy!! Definitely recommend coming here and check out the casino/ restaurant right at the beginning.

We stay at Hidden Hollow RV Park every year on our way to Florida from Minnesota and then again when we return home. It really is a hidden gem. Staff is always friendly and inviting and it is quiet and relaxing. Sites are level so we can stay hooked up for our overnight stays.

We love to stay at the Magnolia Lodge for Christmas . We have family in Dothan but do not mind the small drive. This place is cozy, spacious, clean and quiet. Will be back next Christmas !

For the 55 and older group, after a long days travel the only place to stay. It’s so quiet, rooms are dark, no outside noise, large bathing area, and only 6 or 7 rooms. We have stayed there the last 3 years, since we found it. Nice camping area, they also have small cabins to stay in.

Magnolia Creek Lodge is an absolute gem! We stayed in one of the cabins and were truly impressed. Everything was spotless, beautifully decorated, and felt so warm and inviting. The property is peaceful and well-maintained, you can really tell that great care goes into every detail. I will definitely be returning the next time I’m in the area. Highly recommend!
