My partner and I stayed for 3 wonderful nights whilst attending our sons graduation at the nearby Young Harris College. Having travelled from England we arrived late at night to be greeted by Garrett who was friendly and informative, this I now understand to be the wonderful Southern hospitality everyone mentions which we also experienced from all the reception & Oaks staff, especially the 2 lovely ladies who served us breakfast. (Sorry we didn't get to see you on our last day, we slept in late then had to rush off) Our room was spacious & comfortable, I didn't use the AC as I find it plays havoc with my breathing so opted for the large ceiling fan which was ample for our needs. The bed was so huge you need a sat nav to move around it :) We met a lovely couple in the Oaks bar who mentioned to us that the building will be going through a makeover which is possibly well needed however I had no complaints to make about the decor. We spent quite a lot of time in the gardens and on the pier with beautiful views of the mountains & lake. Overall we had an excellent stay which was possibly one of the finest of my 57 years on this Earth.

Beautiful location and the resort was very nice, relaxing and enjoyable. My family and I were extremely happy with our stay. Great shower, coffee maker and courteous staff. We stayed 3 nights and would definitely return. Lake is breathtaking and there's room to roam... making it feel like so much more than a typical hotel/inn.

The carpet in our room needed a good cleaning and one of the beds was uncomfortable and you could feel the spring on one side of it

We loved this lodge. The facility was amazing. The staff was super friendly, I wish I could remember all their names but I can only remember Denise. They were all so helpful and super nice. We are excited about our next visit. The cleanliness was amazing. We loved the fire and s’mores in the evenings. The beds were some of the best we ever had. The shower was very hot and powerful! We hated leaving.

We would have loved a continental breakfast but there were several places close for breakfast including their on site restaurant. So it wasn’t a deal breaker!

From the moment we stepped on property we knew The Ridges Resort was going to be special. At first sight, the landscaping, flower beds, birds, lawns & lake view welcomed us visually, and then through the entry doors we were so graciously welcomed by, Denise! What a professional, Denise thrives on her passion for sharing all the resort has to offer its guests, missing no details in and around the hotel itself. Also striking to me was the manner in which Denise credited her teammates in making the Hotel operate in unison, the mark of a consummate professional. Our room was well equipped with comfy beds, bedding, lovely shower supplies, wifi and a peaceful balcony to watch the birds and take in the lake view. Our Granddaughter was welcomed throughout the property and had a blast at the Waterworks World & nightly S’mores by fireside. There are plenty of walkways to enjoy a brisk walk around the beautiful flower beds, pier or over to the Marina. The pool was clean, refreshing & a gorgeous blue, plenty of seating, shade and restrooms. All walking areas were easily accessible & marked. We made reservations for dinner at the Lakeside restaurant which did not disappoint. Accommodated GD with their freshly made delicious fettuccine. The Marina club offers lunch & dinner as well, all within walking ease. The only thing we should have thought about in advance was booking massages, a heavily in-demand experience. Nothing else would have made our stay any better than what we experienced. (Maybe a boat, which was an option) lol. We thank all the staff equally (I’m missing the names of a couple of other ladies, apologies), but Denise greeted us & captured our hearts at first sight. Thank you all! Debs, Em & Kristin

Honestly, nothing comes to mind! Oh, can you control the weather? lol *note to self, bring boat!

It was my wife birthday,we stayed in that place for 2 days. Everything was good ,hotel is’t new,but all clean and good condition. Perfect lake view room,you can walking around and enjoying 🙏🙏🙏 at 8 pm you can go outside to main fire place,and cook marshmallows on fire,it was pretty cool 👍 restaurant was excellent,staff,food,view,piano music everything was amazing 👍🙏

All good

Nice place, I'd stay again. Comfortable beds and pillows. Otherwise a "standard" hotel room that you'd expect. The rooms were satisfactory, but the real benefit to this place is its location on the lake, which offers a tranquil setting and beautiful view, especially in the evening.

I thought, based on the room name on Booking, that we were getting a room with a view of the lake, but turned out to be just a view of the parking lot. If I were the developers, I would've just built the hotel so that all rooms had a lake view! No biggie though.

Nice little mountain lodge hotel. Just what we needed for a night away. Room was comfortable and lobby is pretty.

Hotel bar was at the restaurant which is a separate building from the lobby. Not a big deal, but it was just really cold when we were there and didn't want to go out in the cold to get a drink at the bar. Guess we didn't want it bad enough!

I'm very very big on cleanliness, and I'm also reasonable in that I don't expect to be in a brand new resort room for just a few bucks. All was clean, comfortable, but the view and decor alone is worth every penny. On this one, skip the bad reviews and just book it. Excelent property, accommodations and location. Did not want to leave.

The place is great overall! I enjoyed staying with my family and the views during the day/ smores at night. Convenient location, too!

My only recommendation is getting the place updated some. My carpet in the room was fairly old looking and stained. Everything else was more than satisfactory.

The staff was very friendly and helpful in finding a place for me to eat. The room was clean and the towels were thick and soft. The bed was one of the most comfortable I've slept in. The view of the lake and the mountains is beautiful.

The hotel is very outdated. The carpet, although clean and stain free, looks very 1990's. A fresh and happy color for the carpet and paint for the walls and doors would go a long way. But the hotel and room were very clean and that, ultimately, is my main priority.
