The Lodge On Lake Oconee

Mandy

I would love to give this hotel more stars, but we had a lot of difficulty with the management during our stay. We had people in town for a family reunion. My aunt had called to see if we could get a block of rooms for a discounted rate. She spoke with the manager and was told they could accommodate us for a discounted rate. They then completely reneged on that deal when we were present to pay. Additionally, family members with AARP and/or AAA had to argue with the hotel over getting the 10% discount for every night of the 3 night stay. The hotel was only giving the discount on 1 night. Highly unusual practices for a hotel and outright dishonesty on not honoring the block room rate discount. The lodge overall is pretty good. Room was spacious and clean; cleaning staff were available daily. The pool and spa are nice, but there are no umbrellas or any shade in the pool area. The hotel stated all the umbrellas were broken. Some of the lounge chairs were also ripped. Breakfast wasn't much, but there were hot options-microwaveable breakfast sandwiches. No ice machine on the 2nd floor. Nice area to sit by Lake Oconee with a swing chair and area to fish off the shore.

The suite we were in was nice. The AC worked very well; however the ironing board did not have a cover and the fro t desk was not able to provide one. The freezer part of the refrigerator was frozen with ice and the refrigerator did not get very cold. The breakfast room was hot both mornings and the second morning by 8:30 the juice machine was out of order or the beverage was all gone. I was disappointed in the food service at the lodge.

Lovely facilities. Rooms are clean. Nice lake access. Manager was putting in a lot of hours wearing many hats but was always pleasant and greeting us with a smile.

Not the best hotel I've stayed at, but also not the worst. As for the rooms: stains on furniture, dusty all over, missing curtains, rusty bathrooms, poor-fitting sheets. Breakfast was lackluster, even for a free offering. Hard to beat the location though, and the staff was all friendly and efficient. I'll give it another try after the renovations are complete.
