Dillard House

Dillard House

10/10 Excellent
"They are in the process of constructing the facilities. It will be a resort when done. All rooms have been made new. The room smelled like a new house (perfect). The havac system controls had no instructions and the buttons were not labeled. A minor thing that I am sure will be corrected. Outstanding facility. They must of spent millions on shrubbery alone. The horses are beautiful and friendly."

"I often travel to north Georgia for gigs in various wedding venues in the area. The one consistent part of my travel is the hotel. I have been traveling for over 20 years to this area and I always stay here. While situated near the main road, the noise I normally experience at other hotels is absent here. As well as the noise of other visitors, minimal."
