We had our wedding in Dahlonega and most of our guests booked rooms at Forrest Hills since the price was fair and the other hotels in the area were completely booked for a bike race that same weekend. The day before our guests arrived, my husband and I wanted to drop off welcome bags in each room. Forrest Hills was... more

This was a wedding event with lots of friends and family which was the only satisfying part of the trip. The accommodations were far from "resort" quality. Most of the plumbing was very loose and rickety. We had plugged up sinks and toilets. One of our sink handles actually fell off but we could easily place it back on. The... more

Forrest Hills Resort was exactly what we were looking for to celebrate our 10th wedding anniversary. We enjoyed ourselves and liked so much about the resort that it is hard to know where to start. The excellent service started from the very first phone call to make a reservation. The staff was very knowledgeable about the cabins and rooms and... more

We stayed at Forrest Hills for our 21st anniversary. It was everything we had hoped for... the most relaxing time we have spent together of any where we have been. We took advantage of the in room couples massage... so relaxing! If you are looking for ritzy, keep looking but it was exactly what we wanted and needed. Comfortable, private,... more

When we got our wedding photos from Forrest Hills, we sat for hours just devouring the cherished memories. Michele DeBlois (owner of the resort and wedding photographer) captured the warmth and happiness so perfectly, the beauty and the fun. Every staff member was as nice and helpful as can be. The memories are fantastic. I can’t wait to get back... more

I agree with the last reviewer - this place is not Shangra-La, but if you go in with the correct expectations you can enjoy a brief romantic stay. My husband and I just celebrated our 10 year anniversary, and it was only a short (1 hour) drive away from Atlanta. I would say 1 or 2 nights here in a... more

Celebrated 50th Anniversary with our entire (four generations) family.Forrest Hills was the ideal place. Lovely rustic accomodations,well maintained with many diversions for people of all ages. The staff made us feel right at home immediately and responded to our every need, Best surprise was the real 'down-home cookin'. Every evening featured FRESH vegetables,meats and home made desserts. Breakfasts were similarly... more

We won’t be back, but we did have a restful evening. This place is hard to describe. My wife and I rented a deluxe "honeymoon" cabin. The cabin was reasonably clean, the bed, couch and furnishing were comfortable and current and the cabin was mostly clean. The grounds aren’t picturesque … the “conference center” reminds me of a Boy Scout... more

This place is not what it appears to be!!! We just returned from Forrest Hills, we were there 8 years ago and nothing has changed. There have been no updates or renovations. We stayed in Sparrow and it was dusty and dirty. It was a beautiful 75 degrees and when we tried to open the windows they were full of... more
