Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is located in a beautiful area surrounded by gorgeous waterfalls, making it a perfect base to explore the stunning mountainous region. The rooms are spacious, clean, and beautifully decorated. The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful, going above and beyond to assist guests. However, the lack of cell service can be a downside for those who need constant connectivity.
Staying at this hotel was a unique experience in the woods not far from downtown Dahlonega. The room, a shipping container turned into a spacious suite with bunk beds, was very nice and clean. The bed and pillows provided a very comfortable rest. The location offers a peaceful escape in the hills, attracting visitors looking for calm in the mountains.
My stay at the hotel in the woods not far from downtown Dahlonega was a mix of spacious luxury and some limitations. The room and bathroom were large, impeccably clean, and the bed and pillows were incredibly comfortable, making it feel like a high-end hotel without the hefty price tag. However, the lack of outside windows in the sleeping area and minimal cell service were noticeable drawbacks.
