"Really enjoyed our stay at the Smith House! Had the comforts of a hotel but the feel of a B&B. We stayed for UNG’s family weekend and it was perfect for walking to campus as well as being right off the square in Dahlonega. Would definitely stay again!"
"The property was wonderful. Quiet, great scenery. The best was Don. He was so pleasant and helpful. He would sit with us at breakfast everyday and just chat. It was a great place.."
