If you’ve ever found yourself winding through the North Carolina or Georgia Mountains, you may have come across a set of white letters stretching across the hillside that simply read: Dillard House. Although it’s no Hollywood, this quaint mountain retreat is a diamond in the rough.

You can usually get a glimpse of the Dillard House and its name stretching across the mountain easily when traveling north, but it can be easy to miss if traveling south through Georgia. Sitting in the hills, these Georgia mountain accommodations are most known for their family-style country cooking, but is great for a weekend retreat or family vacation.

When lodging at Georgia’s Dillard House, expect accommodations that are resort-like, giving you the option of rarely having to leave the premises. Activities on-site include horseback riding, fishing, a farm zoo, tennis courts, swimming pool and jacuzzi, gift shop and beautiful grounds for walking around. Activities in the area include wine vineyards, golf, whitewater rafting, hiking and shops.

The pinnacle of the Dillard House is the full-service restaurant offering family-style country cooking. People drive from miles around just for the restaurant. Enjoy a variety of home-cooked favorites like fried okra, fried chicken, country ham, cornbread and cobbler. During the warmer months, they often have music outdoors and serve a sampling of their dinner menu, which usually involves either fried or barbecued chicken.

Accommodations at the Dillard House are split up into the inn, the Rock House, chalets and cottages. The chalets and cottages are great for a family vacation, while guests usually prefer the inn or Rock House for something a little more intimate. Rates vary depending on the season. During the early fall you can get a room in the Rock House for as low as $59 per night or a jacuzzi suite for $139 per night. Chalets range from $79 to $229, depending on the season, and the cottages start at $99 per night.
