In the North Georgia mountains there's a saturation of cabin rentals, bed and breakfast inns, and chain hotels. But how about something different? Why not try a resort? Hiawasee, GA and Hayesville, NC is home to The Ridges Resort & Club which is great for family vacations, corporate retreats, or a wedding destination.

What makes a resort.. a resort? It’s what they offer. If you stay at a hotel you’ll get a free bagel in the morning, share one pool with all 300 guests, and if you’re lucky, you’ll get a coffeemaker in your room. At a resort like The Ridges you get the same but on a more grandeur scale because you’re surrounded by luxury. You also have access to their full slip marina, 18-hole Championship golf course, tennis courts, a private trout stream, a Audubon- listed Wildlife Sanctuary, many walking paths, and close-by is plenty of businesses who offer horseback riding, whitewater rafting, and kayaking.
This isn’t just a “hotel” this is a resort.

The property has different types of accommodations, it simply isn’t one building. There’s 3 different parts of the resort. They have The Lodge, Lake Villas, and Golf Villas. At The Lodge they have private balconies, luxurious bedding, all the in-room and resort amenities previously stated, and also a children’s playground. The Golf Villas are of course only seconds away from an 18-hole Championship Golf Course, and because they are villas they have a gourmet kitchen, luxury baths, and a washer/dryer. The Lake Villas have breathtaking mountain lakeside views and accommodations. They have all the resort amenities as well as the comforts of a resort villa.

At a resort, you can have your family vacations here, but you can also have corporate meetings or retreats, or even conferences and The Ridges Resort & Club has all sizes of rooms available for you. This is having meetings in high style and real class because you have the conference in a luxury resort, dine in some of the area’s best restaurants (they’re on the property), and participate in resort amenities such as their golf course, swimming pools, or fishing, and it all comes down to real team building. Their conference rooms also house the latest audio/visual equipment and wireless Internet access, and full service catering.

Don’t forget about wedding destinations! The Ridges is an excellent place to hold your wedding or event. You can have it outdoor or indoor and no matter how many guests are invited, they’re all seated in the lap of luxury with the mountain views, catering, and help from The Ridges team to make your wedding unforgettable.

The Ridges Resort & Club also has 5 restaurants on the property, and is suited for anyone. You can enjoy fine dining at Sequoyah, or enjoy post-game stories at Cherokee Grill, or have Sunday Brunch at Old Hiawassee Grill.

You planned on seeing nature anyways, so how about staying in a resort where it compliments nature? The Ridges Resort has packages available and with all the amenities that they include, it could save you money down the line because you don’t have to drive far to take part in all these wonderful recreation activities. They’re all in your backyard.
