Lucille's Mountain Top Inn and Spa — Hotel in Cornelia

What can I say about Lucille's that hasn't been said before? This is truely an amazing place all around. If you are looking for a stress free. small, beautiful wedding location, choose Lucille's! All it takes is one visit to fall in love.

My husband and I were looking for a place to have a small wedding on a small budget, but we didn't want to settle for a place we didn't love. We visited Lucille's to take a tour and see the sights. As we reached the top of the hill, the view took our breath away. Meeing Jerry was a delight, he covered all the bases and was upfront about the service at Lucille's stating that they only work with the best to insure the quality of your big day. He was so much fun as he showed us around the Inn. He was extremely candid with all of the rooms, even showing us the ones that were in the process of being cleaned. It was nice to see that they were not trying to hide anything. The rooms are all decorated to perfection and the views are gorgeous. We decided by the time we got to the car that we were going to get married there. Jerry literally took care of everything. The cake, the flowers, the photograhper, and the DJ were all coordinated by Jerry. All I had to choose was the colors, flavors and songs. It couldn't have been any easier.

When the day had finally arrived, it was raining and we had to move the ceremony inside the dining room. The view was still beautiful, as the dining room is covered wall to wall with windows. The ceremony went smoothly and the music was great. The flowers were amazing and spot on as well as the cake. It was much more then I ever expected. The photographer was great and got the pictures to us on a disk within a few days after the ceremony.

We stayed the one night included in the package and then added another one on. Like I said before, the rooms are outstanding. We chose room #5 as it has the famous bubble tub. The room had a great view with a fireplace divinding the bedroom and bathroom. The bubble tub was so relaxing. The doubled headed rainfall shower stall was also very nice. The sheets and robes they provide for your stay are so incredibly soft and they are for sale in the lobby! They provide you with bath salts, soap, shampoo and conditioner as well as a vanity kit and shower cap. The towels are soft and clean. The breakfast is really something to rave about. It changes from day to day and gets better every morning. Coffee, tea, water and soft drinks are available 24 hours in the dining room for free. The evening desserts are also very delicious. We didn't make it to the spa, but we plan on visiting again soon to do so. If it's anything like the Inn, I imagine it would be wonderful!

When we left, we were sad to go but so happy we decided on Lucille's. Please take a drive if you are local and just visit the place (give a call and schedule an appointment first) if you are trying to plan a small budget wedding. You will get high quality service for an amazing price. The guests and employees of Lucille's are great people and I highly reccommend you...

From 2019 - our 25 wedding anniversary and of course we HAD to return to Lucille’s. We booked the new garden suite. It is a gorgeous room. We didn’t get to stay in it but stuff happens and there was a leak. Conscientious of our expectations and wanting us to be 110 percent happy, we were called to be informed and offered their top accommodations as a replacement. Now that’s a place that cares for your happiness. We were overwhelmed and exceeding delighted. Delightful breakfasts, scrumptious desserts, amazing spa treatments (we got the anniversary package deal). Lucille’s is a wonderful relaxing beautiful to all your senses vacation that will leave you feeling as though you never want to leave. The beds are divine...you sleep like a baby. Everyone was wonderful. They seem to work as a team to make sure you are cared for without you feeling hovered over or invaded upon when you are relaxing either indoors or out. Taimeka is here and there and always doing something but you barely catch see her. She served us one morning and has such a bright happy attitude, smiling at you that you can’t help smiling in return. Lydia, could be seen occasionally around the kitchen. She’s sweet charming caring and served our breakfast while cooking it our last morning there. She’s so eager to please you just want to give her a squeeze (hug). It was hard to just mention a couple. Samantha greeted us, gave us a tour and checked that our last breakfast was concluded without any other needs. Of corse meeting Chuck and Charlie, the owners was pleasant making us feel that they truly care that their guests are cared for.

From 2015 “Gorgeous, beautiful exquisite. First class. Interesting architecture. Touches around the building that add to experience. Koi pond with waterfall, porch swing, gliders, rockers, jacuzzi tubs in rooms, windows open to capture fresh mountain air, upper room to get a 360 degree view. Breakfast food that is so delicious with desserts available in the evenings. You feel pampered and rested. The quiet is so quiet. Birdsong and frogs are practically the only sounds and they enhance the experience. Did I forget to mention there's a spa? That's an experience you won't want to miss either. The most relaxing vacation I've EVER...

Had a nice time views were great. However, my surprise experience was ruined by Alex. I brought my wife here for her birthday and she didn't know anything I had prepared. However, she essentially found out the details that were pretty sentimental once we checked in. Alex went down the list essentially. I had paid for and was promised a specific flavor cake and it was wrong even after I followed up on the details before arriving and paid for the Birthday Surprise package.. well it was no longer a surprise when at check in the details of the surprise was blurted out. Alex however, was very apologetic and tried her best to get the poop back in the horse. I was appreciative of her effort. She told me that well "how about I just refund the whole thing back to you" I told her I appreciate it and she also offered to got to store and get a replacement cake for the one that was not correct (the new cake bought still was wrong flavor-but okay.) I was disappointed to come to check out and was told she only promised to refund the "cake". I'm like okay no problem because I didn't want to argue with not only what I heard her say but also the principal behind it all. I still paid for the Birthday Surprise package that was not a surprise and still will consider coming back one day. Because overall it was a great experience the staff was very nice and the views outstanding. Just a few attention to details to prevent service failures would have given 5 stars and also returning the costs of the breakfast package for what could be potentially loyal lucrative spending guests would have gone a much longer way. We even were considering coming for Thanksgiving but when Patsy advised of Alex's response to what we heard stated. We just decided to reconsider for maybe another time and give it a breather before considering coming back. Prefer to wait until after the sting of disappointment wears off. However, we have recommended this place to a few friends since our visit and they intend...
