The Cascades Inn is in a great location near Clayton, GA and has amazing views. The waterfall at the creek down the stairs is incredibly peaceful. My only regret is we couldn’t stay longer since we were here for a friends wedding. This place is a must stay if you are in the area. The cabins are well maintained and are very spacious as well!
From the moment we arrived we were sure by natural beauty this hidden gem nestled in peaceful scenic are with waterfalls just outside my room. The staff was amazing warm and tentative and checked in with us when they saw us out and about making sure we were enjoying our stay. Conveniently located to cute quaint little shops and a large amount of dining selections, as well as beautiful hiking trails. The atmosphere here is incredibly serene & perfect for anyone looking to unwind and recharge. Especially loved the light show on the falls at night. I’d give it 10 stars if I could

A gem - beautiful property and personal service. We loved it.
The peaceful falls, sounds, outside amenities, just enjoyed God’s beauty! They have really gone to great lengths to set the bar high for a real stay and experience away from home!!!!
Awesome place to stay and relax. Inn keeper is too notch. Had a pretty rough storm the last night we stayed but Mike the Inn keeper was out there at 3am roght after it passed cleaning up debris from driveway, checking on the patrons vehicles and blocking of the stairwell to the lower observation deck due to a tree snapping in the wind storm and falling on the bottom stair case. Wouldn't hesitate to stay again.
Really enjoyed the peace and quite. The views and nature trails around the property were nice. The service was great. Thank you Mike for being personable and helpful!
This beautiful cabin retreat is a wonderful Gem located only 35 minutes from Helen GA. The waterfall and sounds of the water while sleeping are peaceful. There are fire pits for the children to have smores and all the staff are friendly. It’s just you and nature out here with a small town 8 minutes away. They have a tv with Netflix and all, but you won’t need it after you see how relaxing it is.
We had a great time staying at Cascades Inn. Michael was so friendly and welcoming, and he made sure we were comfortable with the property. There are lots of seating areas and the waterfront is awesome. The cabin itself was comfortable, but could probably benefit from a deep clean (under the beds, under the kitchen stove, etc.). We didn't have any real issues, though, and it was stocked with all the supplies we needed. My kids absolutely loved it, especially the loft area. We cooked dinner, played games, and relaxed after an afternoon hiking at Tallulah Gorge. Very close to the park, and easy to find. My kids have already said they want to come back when it's warmer.
Excellent customer service from check-in to check-out. Awesome location and incredibly beautiful view. We truly enjoyed this memorable trip to celebrate our 23rd Anniversary.
Had a flat tire in travel trailer 10 minutes from the cascades. Soon as I seen the pictures online I knew that was our spot for the night. Upon arrival Mike the manager was very friendly, showed us around and told us to come eat bbq with him and other guests as we settled. We ate with the other quest and enjoyed our night at the great taking views, waterfall was my favorite.
