Location and view were amazing! The property provides tranquility and comfort. The bedrooms were spacious with room for 11 adults and a toddler. Close to Amicalola State Falls Park and approximately 20 from North Georgia Premium Outlets. The host is onsite which is convenient for questions or concerns.

The lodge was great and you could not ask for more attentive hosts. Mr. Randy and Mrs. Becky were so welcoming and were there to assist with anything needed. The animals were so special and our children thoroughly loved them. The view was spectacular and we could see Amicalola Falls from our living room.

We loved this place. We will definitely be back. We appreciated the host being available, We had everything we needed right there. It was a perfect getaway for my family, with room to spare. The house was fantastic, and the view was amazing. Fantastic place to rest and there are plenty of options to get out and do things within 30 min. The waterfall, that you can see from the house, is less than 10 min away and is a great place to visit for hiking and views.

This is an absolutely gorgeous house and location. It would be very hard to beat this in all of N. Georgia. The house was clean and well equipped. The owners were extremely quick to provide anything we needed and saved us a drive to the store when we forgot a food item.
