The Friendly Atmosphere All Staff at From Desk They Are The Best. I Totally Recommend and Planning to go back Again

Great service with management and cleaning staff (Nicole) is very charming, attentive, and friendly.

The property is beautiful and has a lot of untapped potential. However, the website is very deceiving. There are 3 lakes with fishing, paddle boarding, canoeing, and kayaking available. There is archery and shooting for an extra cost. However, horseback riding and ATV's are no longer available (apparently for years), although the website still mentions both. The restaurant was closed as there is no chef at this time and staff had no idea when it would reopen. The only place to eat was the little store with coffee, snacks, and a few refrigerated sandwiches, but no breakfast or dinners as per the website. There is also a limited pool-side menu. We had to drive to Serenby to eat, which was quite an inconvenience. Staff were super friendly and did everything possible to make our stay enjoyable. As a make up for not having a restaurant, we were given a complementary golf cart for a day. The room and bathroom were very spacious and clean, but we did not get any room service during our stay. The buildings could really use some paint as the lakeside side of the cottages/hotel has peeling paint and the screened-in porches have lots of broken parts. Overall, we enjoyed the outdoors with hiking and lake activities. However, you can't call something a RESORT without having full service, all the resort amenities, and a restaurant. Also, the website needs to be updated to reflect the current state of the property. Not exactly the pampered weekend we were expecting.

Convenient location with parking. Clean rooms and an attentive host. Stocked with essentials...didn't need to pack as much as I did.

The hotel is in a beautiful location and inside Stone Mountain Park. There were great nature trails close by. The hotel was nice, quiet and peaceful. There was an unexpected resort fee charged to us since we had used a 3rd party to book the rooms, which would have been nice to know before hand.
