We were needing somewhere for one night and wished we were staying longer. We stayed in a classic cabin (small) but was amazing. Extremely clean and and everything we need for two people. The grounds were kept very well and staff was very helpful. We will definitely go again and if staying longer get one that's bigger but if you just need a night or two, the classic is fine.

My husband, 4 year old daughter & I enjoyed our stay in the Classic Cabin # 303! Everything was so tidy and neat, WiFi worked great, the location of the cabin was perfect from my parents lake property (where we went to shoot fireworks and cookout). The cabin had everything we needed & the kitchenette was very nice and everything worked as it should (I do wish there was a toaster, but that's just a personal preference). The mini fridge worked great, I loaded it up with items from our larger cooler and it kept everything nice and cold with no problem! Our cabin did have a partial lake view, but it would be nice if some of the trees/sitting trucks to the right area were cleared out to open up the lake/water view more. The ice machine on site was clutch and so handy to use! We had to contact staff twice, the little paper on the fridge was missing with the WiFi login info and checkout instructions, but when we contacted them they were so nice and friendly!! Overall WE LOVED IT and REALLY enjoyed our stay!!!

This was last minute idea. I didn't know anything about this place I just took a gamble and I am glad I did. We had the BEST time. The cabin was like new (may have been new) and its was nice. Kitchenette, streaming on TV and my favorite brand of coffee for the pot. (Community Breakfast blend) We had a GREAT time. Fishing the lake was fun. Be warned, Alabama requires a boaters license. I was going to rent a boat but we didn't know that as Georgia doesnt require one. I will have one when we go back.

Everything was wonderful with our stay. Very clean,peaceful and the staff was prompt in helping us when our tv wouldn’t connect. Our only complaint was that the mattress on both top and bottom bunk beds were extremely hard and uncomfortable,leading our son to end up sleeping in our bed.

This was the worst experience we have ever had. The cabins are absolutely toxic. They reek of fumes and formaldehyde! We could not breathe, had to open windows to try to get fresh air and left our stay early due to headaches and extremely hard beds. When we called to let them know that we were having to leave because the room was toxic, we were told “Yeah, some people have had to deal with that”. Are you kidding me??? Not only are the rooms toxic but they are FULLY aware of it and don’t care. This place is just a money grab and false advertising. There are maybe 4 cabins actually “on the lake” the rest of the cabins are near the lake but actually face the back of other cabins. So stupid to layout cabins without a lake view but claim “lake views”. Never did see the snow covered mountain that they show pics of like it’s visible from the cabins. Non-existent. Trust me… keep looking and keep driving past this place. We will NEVER be back! We did lose money for not staying the 2nd night cause we could barely stay 1st night but it was worth it to gladly find a nice, clean, fresh air, breathable, very roomy, big bathroom, and comfy bed at the Hampton!
