We had an absolutely fabulous stay here. We came just one night from Chattanooga for an anniversary dinner at High Point Restaurant (which is just about a 10 minute drive). The Inn is super clean and so comfortable. They do a turn down service and have bathrobes, the room even has an umbrella. We got a golf course view room, and had fun just watching them play by our window. The best part is the comfortable bed and bedding!

The bed needed to be firmer. It was overused. Needs replacement. The place was clean but the carpet was stained. For an upscale hotel, that is unacceptable.

The hotel is beautiful, beautifully located and beautifully apportioned need. It is sparkling clean and fresh. The restaurant menu is somewhat limited. The food was excellent, ample and reasonably priced.
