This recently opened hotel was such a great stay. The staff were amazing, the room was great and the location is in the best spot. The only thing to note is that there is no microwave, but it wasn’t a big deal for us since we didn’t have too many left overs.

Sylvan Falls Mill B&B
Sylvan Falls Mill B&BRabun Gap
10/10 Excellent
It is a still working mill and together Mike and Linda team up to provide excellent and healthy food using the mill as well and old cook books.
Dinner was fabulous and breakfast was a surprise each time.
The house is old obviously, but is kept very clean.
We even got clean towels daily!
We certainly recommend to have a romantic dinner on the day of arrival sitting at the porch overlooking the waterfall!

Great location on the lake.
My husband and I kayacked, fished, brought our pup along. We enjoyed sitting on the porch overlooking the lake.
The owners were more than welcoming, anticipated our needs before we thought of them.

The host of the Sautee Inn are very warm and welcoming.
The breakfast was outstanding as well as the late night dessert. Nearby we ate at Mully’s which also was also excellent. Great place to stay when visiting Helen GA.

In general the property was pretty well taken care of. Conveniently located, away from the overcrowded Helen area. The room was spotless, pet friendly. We were very happy with the room.

Very friendly staff. Only stayed one night. No issues. Treadmill in gym worked great. Think I ran about a bajillion miles at a gazillion miles per hour. Breakfast was OK. Stuck to fresh waffles and boiled eggs. Would have rather ate in town. Main part of Helen is walking distance, about .5 miles.

Wonderful stay. Hotel was very clean inside and out. We did not need the staff because towels, coffee supplies, and paper items were available in the lobby. Highly recommend this place.

The resort is gorgeous and comfortable. The staff are wonderful, except for the person who checked us in. Jody put us in the wrong room and then made a snarky comment about my husband's shirt. Regan, Daniel, and Steve are marvelous and made the whole stay delightful. Thank you!
