Birthday Getaway

One night getaway to celebrate a birthday. Loved the location, we could easily walk to the main area of Helen for shops, restaurants and the bakery. Our King Suite was fabulous, like a small apartment. Nice little area by the river at the back of the property. Really close to othe attractions like the castle, Unicoi State Park and Anna Ruby Falls. Property is being renovated so there were some noisy moments and buliding materials on the grounds, but we were aware of this before we stayed. Highly recommend. Would stay again!

Friendly Staff

This was one of the best hotel experiences we've had in a while. The facility is great, and they were renovating areas to make it even better. What won me over was the service at the desk. Will was the worker who helped us check in. He was fantastic. Just the nicest guy. He helped and accommodated some requests we had. We were in walking distance to so much on the main road. My kids loved the free cookies and drinks throughout the day. Thank you for making our trip so good!

Everything was great till breakfast, are was being updated and a bus load of kids were sitting in small eating area waiting for bus, was not room to even get close to breakfast food, had to leave and go down the street to eat, we felt the management should have taken control and moved kids away from eating area. Otherwise everything was good
