My wife and I enjoyed hosting our adult children and their families for a 3-day Fall Break (maxed out for one of the nights at 8 adults and 4 children). The lodge was beautifully situated on the ridge and elegantly decorated (though not stodgy). The spacious living/dining/kitchen area was great for cooking, dining and entertaining our rather large group. We enjoyed our time together on the large deck and screen porch, daytime and under the stars. On the Clifftops campus, family members hiked to Kirby Smith Point, fished a bit in the lake, played tennis, and played on the playground. Several hiked Buggytop and Fiery Gizzard trails. We enjoyed a dinner at High Point and lunch at Mountain Goat Market. What a great place to stay and to spend time together as a family!
