Reid Ridge Lodge

8/10 Good

"Had a cabin feel to it."

Unicoi State Park & Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"I stayed at Unicoi State Park Lodge for one night while attending Oktoberfest in Helen, and it was a wonderful experience overall. Upon arrival, the front desk staff was so helpful and thorough in explaining the property layout and check-in details. Our room was very clean, comfortable, and had a beautiful scenic view. The standout feature for us was the lodge’s shuttle service straight into downtown Helen, it made attending Oktoberfest stress-free without having to worry about parking or navigating back. Tip for future guests: Your stay actually includes a pass to the state park! We ended up visiting and paying for entry to the state park before checking into the lodge, so keep that in mind if you plan to explore the park, check in or ask for your pass first to save a few dollars. We didn't have time to explore the other lodge amenities since we spent most of our trip downtown, but we would definitely stay here again!"

The Ridges Resort on Lake Chatuge

10/10 Excellent

"beautiful property & views right on the lake. back of property. lakeside, especially nice and well maintained. Overall very good experience, friendly & helpful staff, nice updated/renovated room with great comfortable beds, large HD TV & excellent shower and bathroom. Older property and building which still needs more updating, maintenance & renovation - especially parking area, hallways, and some other common areas. Roof repairs being conducted when we stayed there in early October. Amenities & restaurants somewhat limited but very nice and mostly easily accessible. Would describe more as a lodge than "resort" but still overall good property, conveniently located with great views, Some road noise due to close proximity to local highway 76 however, minimal distraction or problems. The Oaks restaurant small but very attractive. Good food, drinks, specials/happy hour, service and some nice "extras"/surprises but a little pricey for dinner."

Franklin Terrace Bed and Breakfast

8/10 Good

"This is a late-1800s property in a convenient in-town location. Some deferred maintenance was seen, but it was very serviceable. Rooms were clean & good sized, but our bathroom shower was TINY. Lots of public areas to relax & enjoy the views. Owner was very helpful with recommendations for area restaurants & things to see/do. Breakfast was great, with a good mix of hot & cold items. Owner even insisted on giving us a "to-go bag" as we were leaving before breakfast started."
