End of Winter trip: Lucille's Mountain Top Inn & Spa

We were getting the itch to get away for a few days and decided on this B&B. Honestly neither of us had ever heard of this place and it's definitely in a city that I've never heard of, Sautee Nacoochee. Yes, say that three times fast...it's actually near Helen, GA (I was able to picture the area better with that as my reference). The area is absolutely gorgeous!! We visited at the end of February/first part of March so the weather was AMAZING!!! It was getting warm but there was still the breeze of the fresh mountain air.

This is the view when you drive in.....can we say >sigh<! You can see the mountains in the back on the photo on the right. When you look at the photo of the right as well-our room was located on the second floor. You can see the room's side window above the deck. So you actually get a couple of views from this room. 

If you visit I would definitely recommend the mountain view room!!



This was waiting for us when we got into our room. Nice little touch...can't go wrong with chocolates, right?




This spot is secluded (oh darn) but still close enough that you can drive to neighboring towns for dinner, site seeing, hiking, etc... We did some hiking while there and really enjoyed the walks/views. You can't beat fresh mountain air. It was very peaceful and relaxing. A couple of our hikes were at Dukes Creek and Anna Ruby Falls. If you like hiking you should definitely check these out. Earned some more tags for my walking stick - SCORE!!! 

Some images below from our hikes - breath taking! The waterfalls were amazing! Saw a really cool thing going on with some tree roots and stone, WOW! 


 



Some images of the mountain view room...the bathroom...OMG!


Can we say chill time!
Fireplace above the tub!!!



They have an amazing breakfast-OMG!!!!!!!!!! It was definitely not what we were expecting at all...it's actually gourmet and you are served two courses. WHEW!!! Check out some images below...hats of to the Chef! Everything was DELISH!!!!!!! 


 





They also serve desert in the evening - this was a nice way to end a long day. 


Overall we had a wonderful/relaxing trip and would definitely visit this B&B again. I will be posting some restaurant reviews from our stay @TripAdvisor so check them out!!!
