Long Mountain Lodge is in an excellent location for exploring Dahlonega and the surrounding areaâs trails and waterfalls. The views are amazing, the breakfasts are lavish, and the host is super friendly. However, the bedâs mattress felt like we were sleeping on rocks, the outdoor chair cushions were mildewed, and while lavish, the breakfasts were not always extraordinary, in addition to the breakfast window being limited to 8:30â9:30. We enjoyed our stay, even though we didnât sleep particularly well. Note, too, that the temperature controls are by floor, not by room, and on our last night the guests in the room across the hall set the thermostat to freezing!!! This is a great spot to explore north Georgia, but if you are looking for posh, keep looking!
