The Legacy Lodge offers a solid stay, much better than other options in the area. However, some areas need improvement, like the noisy cafeteria-like ambiance in the rooms and the need for maintenance.

Rooms

The rooms needed some paint and had a noisy cafeteria-like feel that wasn't the most relaxing.

The hospitality staff was super friendly and accommodating, going above and beyond to meet our needs, although their presence was subtle.

The location, wooded and by the lake, is peaceful and ideal for a retreat. Close to Atlanta, yet far enough to create a retreat atmosphere.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were quite cramped when opening their sliding doors, but overall, they were solid, definitely a step up from lower star chain options in the area. The location was beautiful but not matched by the service. The staff were young but mostly nice, even going above and beyond for our requests. However, the dining experience was hit or miss, with one restaurant being a joke for the price. The surroundings were amazing, tranquil, and perfect for a team building retreat.

My stay at the hotel was excellent overall. The rooms were spacious and very clean, creating a perfect atmosphere for our sales kick-off. The service was top-notch, with friendly and attentive staff, especially the golf cart valet service. The location was beautiful and well-kept, but there were some issues with cleanliness on the path to the lake. The dining experience had its highs and lows, with superb options like the custom omelet station but also disappointing aspects like tasteless and cold food. The facilities were well-maintained and convenient for our stay.
