Country Hideaway at Mountain Lakes Resort

The overall unit is alright but the furniture is old and extremely uncomfortable. The carpet is old and dirty so be sure to always wear your shoes around the place. There is a mandatory facility charge per person per day regardless if you plan on using the facilities or not. The hot tub was not working while we were there which is the only thing I wanted to use.

The resort staff was nice and helpful. The unit was nice and clean. It had a beautiful view of the mountains and lake. The diner on property had great food and the staff was great. The horse riding was a lovey experience and Champ was a great horse. We enjoyed visiting Helen. Ga. Helen was close with some great restaurants (Cowboys and Angels and Hofbrauhaus....to name two) and shops. Also, we went to Blue Ridge and rode the train to the TN line along the river and it was beautiful! I'll visit again!

This is a cute little resort if only it were not located within a community who thinks they are the cat's pajamas. Eight dollars or nine dollars per day per person makes this resort a very cost in effective trip.

Not fancy, rustic, laid back, perfect for relaxing! Staff very friendly and helpful. Lots to do nearby!

Great location, old resort with sparse and uncomfortable furniture, cobwebs everywhere outside unit and stairs. Worst of all- no working fireplace-just opening covered with yellow caution tape that was not lovely to look at. Resort made no effort to notify guest of such prior to checkin. Balcony had choice of kiddie picnic table or swing covered i cobwebs. No rockers, adult chairs. We left early.

This place looked good online, we had points to use or lose so we booked it, first clue something was up, a Terminex truck met us before we’d even gone in the unit, asked me to go in and see if we saw bugs, it was midafternoon so I didn’t, when we pulled our luggage up the stairs the steps crumbled and came loose from wood rot, the unit itself was clean but very dated, there were notes posted all over “if you do this you’ll be charged”, if you do that you’ll be charged” but no efforts to update the unit. The second morning, killed a roach in front of the starkest, that night one came down the wall next to the fireplace and I killed another one in front of the stars again. Bed in main bedroom was small and very cheap, shook whenever we moved. Would not recommend this place.
