The area is quite beautiful and easy access to several enjoyable hiking trails near the hotel. Staff was very friendly and helpful. The age of the hotel is apparent and the "Creature Comforts" are lacking as a result. If you are looking for a 5 star hotel, look elsewhere. If you are looking for a clean and Vintage experience, then this is a great place for that experience.

The stay was very nice with a couple of minor hicups described below. My major problem was with Expedia booking which was unacceptable due to their total failure to keep me informed. The date of arrival was changed and I was NOT informed. Only thru my last minute inquirer did I learn of the change and I then adjusted my travel. Complete Expedia failure!!! Not a property issue. Minor Property issue: The facial tissue was near empty in the room. I asked front desk for another box but they had none. They said they would inform housekeeping but I never heard anything again. I think it highly unusual for front desk not to have these simple products, facial tissue, TP, etc, available for their guests upon special request.

Quaint and lovely for a nice 2 day escape. We "splurged" for a room on the 3rd floor (we were told it was nicer) after peeking in on a 2nd floor room we realized it was the same. Loved everything about the hotel and grounds, the food was amazing both at dinner and breakfast. The coffee bar on each floor is a nice touch. Plenty of decks and verandas for sitting and enjoying a glass of wine in the evening or coffee in the morning. We will definitely be back :)

Thank you so much for your wonderful rating and review! We are thrilled you enjoyed your stay in our Cherokee Room. Our historic second-floor has stayed very true to the original as of 1922, whereas our third-floor rooms were added on in 2012, with modern amenities in mind. These rooms are equipped with individual thermostats and soundproofing insulation. We are so happy to read you enjoyed your meals with us and loved everything about the hotel! We look forward to your return!

We hate to read we are not what you were looking for. We understand the historical feel is not for everyone, which is why we added the third floor. Although these rooms are still rustic, they offer a more upgraded feel, with modern amenities. We are happy you enjoyed dinner with us and found it to be delicious!

Very enjoyable stay at this historic hotel in the mountains. The property was nice and reminded me of a bed and breakfast type of stay. The restaurant was nice, and the hotel was only 10 minutes from the Tallulah Falls Gorge/State Park. I enjoyed my stay and the hike to the gorge floor/sliding rock.

Cute little property in the GA mountains! The hotel does have some flaws like the it can be a little noisy as there is a sitting area that people like to hang out at. This isn’t fault of the hotel as they made the best of the space.

Thank you for taking the time to leave us your feedback! It is very rare that we receive negative feedback regarding our third-floor rooms. The room you stayed in, our North Mountain Room, is one of our largest rooms with a queen-sized bed. We will most certainly look into the mattress and the sheets that were used. Thank you for bringing this to our attention and we hope to see you again!

The Hotel has a really beautiful vintage Lodge look and feel. The property is so eclectic and interesting inside and out. The furnishings are spot on for the whole timeless Lodge look and feel. There are little to no lake views due to the location and the tree line. The A/C was great and our room had a ceiling fan. The restaurant atmosphere, food and service was very good and very $$$ but worth the price. The included breakfast was also delicious.

Not Lake Front, Can’t even see the Lake, let alone walk to it or around it. Located on busy country road so you can’t walk anywhere- All private property. Have to drive pretty far to take a walk. Porches are nice and breakfast was good. Front desk woman was kind and friendly. The room is basic, housekeeping below average. Had to ask for towels, bring your own toiletries. towels, etc.

Thank you for leaving us your feedback! I am happy to read you found our porches "nice", breakfast "good" and our front desk staff to be "kind and friendly". You are correct, we are not located on the lake and do not advertise to be. However, Lake Rabun and public access to the lake are about a 5-minute walk from our hotel. I do apologize you had to ask for towels. Our housekeepers replace towels that are left on the floor, I am sorry if no one informed you about this policy.Located in the bathroom, we provide complimentary shampoo, conditioner, lotion, and bar soap for guests' use. We hope to see you again!
