Overall Ratings & Reviews The Lodge On Lake Oconee

peaceful if you have lakeview

Wonderful weekend with lake views from our room, comfortable beds, tasty breakfast also. Easy parking, and went fishing right on the property.

Location was great! Staff was wonderful! They were friendly, helpful, and always pleasant. Property could use a little polishing up,though. Starting to show wear in some places. I'd definitely go back again.

Terrible breakfast. No pool or hot tub. Internet was out much of the time.

Staying here while helping with disater relief, so just wanted a hot shower and place to sleep. Overpriced outdated rooms. No water 2 mornings in a row, and the fire alarm randomly going off at 3 am causing everyone to evacuate for hours, which by the reaction of the staff, seems to happen often. No manager on site while we stayed. Left multiple messages with the front desk to speak with the manager (Shawn Kosloff), but no response.

Let me start by saying that the staff was fantastic! Friendly, helpful, and willing to go the extra mile. They were a bright spot in an otherwise unpleasant stay. Our bathroom sink was completely clogged, the toilet was stained, and the bathtub/shower had visible grime. Breakfast options were extremely limited. The milk, though within its expiration date, was spoiled and had huge chunks in it. We couldn't get out of there fast enough.

The hotel had a funky smell and is older and out dated. There was no ice maker or vending on the 2nd and 3rd floor. I noticed that my sink stopper was out and on the bathroom counter when I walked in my room and the toilet also ran. I called the front desk to see if there was any maintenance going on in my room they said no and that I could just put the stopper back in myself. I would normally not have a problem doing this at my home because I know how regular I clean my sinks but they should have sent someone from maintenance up.

The bathrooms need renovating and the windows that look out to the lake are filmy and you cant really see out well.

I think it's over price..

Was a good stay over Thanksgiving weekend.

I paid for an “upgraded” room with a view and was very disappointed. Pro’s: - The view from my room looked like it would have been nice if I stayed long enough to see the sunrise. Cons: - Room was VERY humid (like mold level humid) - I could feel the cold from outside rush in from a small hole in the wall under the A/C unit - There was insulation that was blown out from the air ducts all over my toilet & sink - The shower didn’t function and barely had water pressure because most of the water was still being forced out the tub faucet - The tub quickly filled up with water and didn’t drain properly leaving me to stand ankle high in water - Im 90% sure there was bed bugs cause I didn’t stop itching till I got home and washed all my clothes and took a real shower. I booked a 2 night stay and left after the first night, I was so uncomfortable and worried I was about to bring bed bugs home.

The cleaning is perfect and there are no bad smells

I stopped here on part of a larger road trip. The room was an excellent size for our family of five. The hotel employees in the evening were excellent the ones in the morning not so much. The breakfast was canceled because of some reason that they didn't care to share with us. There was no apology for the inconvenience.

Beautiful lakeside hotel. Does in a facelift of sorts but very comfortable, clean and friendly

The room was very old and dated.

Super nice staff, lighted parking, clean rooms, everything you need. Third time I have stayed here on annual Thanksgiving motorcycle trip South.

The room was nice and clean and the perfect layout for our family of 4. We had 3 beds with the sofa bed. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We were able to check in early before going to the Georgia Tennessee game in Athens.

The rooms are over priced

Bathroom was filthy, hair all over the place. Brown moldy looking stuff in the toilet and on shower floor. Sink had water all around it like someone had taken a hobo bath in the sink right before we checked in. Floor was sticky, lord only knows what that was from, we used sandals in the shower and while using the restroom, I had to hover over the toilet like I was in a porter pot at a concert for fear of contracting a disease. Bed was absolutely disgusting, brown, black, and what looked like body fluid stains on sheets and blanket, hair all over the bed like Chewbacca from Star Wars slept there the night before. We slept on towels. There was a skid stained pair of dirty underwear next to the "desk" area, I can only assume from a previous guest. Smelled like a New York City subway. We will never stay here again, id rather sleep in a cardboard box under an overpass.

The place is nice and I really liked the breakfast but you can listen every noise inside your room.
