Frequently asked questions
See all FAQs →Exterior Room FAQs
What is the view from the Exterior Room at Big Cypress Lodge?
The Exterior Room is a resort-view room overlooking the lodge grounds. Big Cypress Lodge is built inside the Memphis Pyramid, so you are staying in a rustic, cabin-style setting. Rooms across the lodge are modeled after cabins, fishing lodges and treehouses among cypress trees.
What is the bathroom like?
The private bathroom has a deep soaking bathtub and a separate rainfall shower. It also comes with bathrobes, towels, a hair dryer, shampoo, soap and free toiletries. Accessible features include a grab bar near the toilet, a raised toilet seat and a low-height counter and sink.
Is the Exterior Room wheelchair accessible?
Yes, the room is wheelchair accessible. It has a grab bar near the toilet, a raised toilet seat and a low-height counter and sink. Service animals are welcome in all accommodations at no extra fee.
Can I book connecting rooms for a larger group?
Connecting rooms are available, which helps larger families or groups stay side by side. The Exterior Room itself sleeps four and has no rollaway option, so connecting rooms are the way to add space.
What can I use in the room for snacks and drinks?
The room has a minibar, a refrigerator, an electric kettle and a toaster, with complimentary bottled water. Dining is also close by. Wahlburgers Wild on the main floor serves breakfast from 7 AM, and The Lookout at the Pyramid serves lunch and dinner. Room service runs during limited hours.
Does Big Cypress Lodge have a pool, and is the room suitable for families?
There is no swimming pool on site. The lodge overlooks an indoor cypress swamp with alligators and fish ponds. Families are welcome. Children of all ages can stay, and those 13 and over are charged as adults. The lead guest checking in must be 21 or older. With a children's play area and a 13-lane bowling alley in the Pyramid, the 4-guest Exterior Room works well for families.
What are the check-in and check-out times, and can I bring my dog?
Check-in begins at 4 PM and check-out is at 11 AM. Early check-in may be requested for a $50 plus tax fee, subject to room availability. You can use the facilities before your room is ready. Two dogs of any size are welcome for $75 per pet, per stay. Cats are not permitted and pets cannot be left unattended in the room.
How do I get from Memphis International Airport and around downtown?
Memphis International Airport (MEM) is roughly a 17 to 26 minute drive. Rideshare and taxis are the common way to reach the lodge, and the hotel can arrange a transfer. The complimentary on-demand shuttle covers downtown Memphis, including Beale Street and FedExForum events. It does not serve the airport. Request it through the shuttle app, and it runs first-come, first-served until 10 PM.
