I’m really at a loss on how to review Bluff Mountain Inn. The property is BEAUTIFUL! There’s so much opportunity with the bistro, chapel, and barn. Our wedding was dreamy and everything I wanted. The downfall here was they switched management between the time of booking and to the wedding. When touring we met the lady that handled weddings and I was confident. Then I learned that she left when new management came. With new management, I suggest staying on top of them for your needs. I came to the venue a few days early and things were not kept up. They need to invest in maintaining the property. Weed control and cleaning the spaces. The amount of dirt and cleaning we had to do was not ideal. If you want to walk into space and not have to worry about that - i don’t know if this is your venue. However, they did do things to correct the issues I had, but I feel I shouldn’t have had to even do that. Like I said we had a beautiful day, so in the grand scheme it was great. I would request a tour and have serious conversations with them before booking.

Our Reunion-Style Wedding at Hawkesdene I’ve struggled to put this experience into words because so much can’t be fully captured. My husband and I feel incredibly grateful to have celebrated with family and friends at this stunning estate and charming town—truly the most fun experience! Reunion-Style Wedding for 100 Guests (No wedding package, no weekend venue rental, and we were legally married beforehand to enjoy the day stress-free.) Weekday Wedding: Sunday–Tuesday (Monday was a holiday). Full Estate Rental: We covered the entire property, including optional cabins, but skipped the wedding package so we could fully host guests. DIY Ceremony: No designated aisle or seating (just a few chairs for family). It turned out beautifully! No Decor Needed: The venue is breathtaking, so we skipped decorations. Floral Rentals: Used Something Borrowed Blooms—absolutely perfect. Incredible Food: Every meal was amazing (menu below). Cost: Clearly listed on their website—no hidden fees. Tip: Get event insurance when hosting at an estate. Unexpected things can happen, and it’s peace of mind for you and the next couple. We always envisioned a wedding weekend instead of a single day. Since we live far from family, we wanted quality time together. After extensive research (and almost giving up), we found Hawkesdene on VRBO while considering an elopement in the Georgia mountains. It was the only venue that allowed us to host guests while staying within budget. Itinerary Sunday Whitewater Rafting (10 AM): Nantahala with Carolina Outfitters (highly recommend!) Breweries (1:30–3:30 PM): Hoppy Trout (great private room) & Snowbird Mountains Brewery (provided kegs). Check-in (4 PM) Dinner (7 PM) Champagne Toast at the Peak (7:45 PM): ½-mile hike—steep but worth it! S’mores & Activities (9 PM) Monday Breakfast (8:30–10 AM) Waterfall Hike (10:30–11:30 AM): 1-mile in, 1 out—rain made it tricky but worth it! Lunch (12:30–2 PM) Lawn Games (1:30–3 PM) Ceremony (5:15 PM, DIY setup) Cocktail Hour (5:30 PM) Reception & Dinner (6:45 PM) Evening Activities (8:30 PM) Tuesday Breakfast (8:30 AM) Check-out (by 11 AM) The Food The food was phenomenal—to flawlessly cook this much fish deserves an award. We skipped a cake and were thrilled with the chef’s dessert selections. Menu: Salads: Greek & Balsamic Entrees: Salmon (Night 1), Honey-Balsamic Chicken (Night 1), Trout (Night 2), Steak (Night 2) Sides: Squash, Green Beans, Sweet Potato, Mac & Cheese, Asparagus, Broccolini Logistics & Final Thoughts Jami & Rob were fantastic. If you choose Reunion Style (no wedding package), be prepared to handle logistics yourself. It worked perfectly for us but isn’t for everyone. Their website outlines everything—read it carefully! Alcohol: We used Appalachian Beverage in Ellijay (they have everything). We provided a small amount of liquor, but most guests got their own—so refer back to my event insurance note! Soak it all in. This place is truly magical—like the Disney of wedding venues. We wouldn’t change a thing, and our guests still rave about it. Highly recommend for a unique and unforgettable wedding weekend!

I can't say enough wonderful things about The Vineyard at High Holly and the amazing owners, Leslie and Eric. My wedding was truly perfect, despite the unexpected arrival of Hurricane Helene! From the very beginning, Leslie and Eric went above and beyond to make sure everything went smoothly, even as the storm approached. They made adjustments on the fly, ensuring that all of my guests were safe and comfortable while still creating the dream wedding I had envisioned. The venue itself is absolutely stunning, with breathtaking views that made our ceremony unforgettable. The attention to detail, the warmth, and the hospitality were unparalleled. Leslie and Eric's dedication to their couples shines through in everything they do — they really treated us like family. Even in the face of a hurricane, they managed to keep the atmosphere calm and joyful, and their support made all the difference. If you're looking for a venue with a personal touch, stunning scenery, and hosts who truly care about your big day, I can’t recommend The Vineyard at High Holly enough. Leslie and Eric made my wedding day feel magical, no matter what the weather threw our way!

If I could give The Trillium Venue more than 5 stars, I absolutely would. I always dreamed of getting married at a mountain venue, and from the moment I found The Trillium, I knew it was the one. It was actually the only venue we looked at—we booked site unseen and didn’t even visit until a couple months later, but somehow we just knew. From start to finish, Sydney and the entire team were incredible. Everyone was so friendly, responsive, and helpful every step of the way. They answered all of my questions, provided amazing vendor recommendations, and had beautiful rental options that made planning so much easier. The cabins right across from the venue were perfect and made everything so convenient for us and our guests. The getting-ready spaces were gorgeous, spacious, and such a fun place to spend the morning getting ready. The entire property is stunning and so well-maintained. All night long, our guests kept commenting on how beautiful the venue was and saying it was one of the best weddings they had ever been to. Choosing The Trillium was one of the best decisions we made, and I wish we could relive that day there all over again. Highly recommend to any couple dreaming of a beautiful mountain wedding.

The new owners, Tom & Laura, went above and beyond to make our weekend just what we had dreamed of. Their preferred vendor list made it easy for our planner to pull together just what we envisioned. The property is absolutely beautiful with views in every direction. Our special guests were able to stay on-site. There are plenty of rooms and cabins so that everyone could be comfortable and not have to travel. They have a lodge building with all en-suites a library & family room with fireplace and mountain views (every room has a balcony), bungalows with mountain views and cabins with jacuzzis and fireplaces in every cabin.
