Beautiful scenery, food was pretty good, but it took a long time to get served due to understaffing. The room was clean, but pretty outdated and it only had a coffee maker. It would've been nice to have a mini refrigerator.

The stay at The Peaks of Otter this weekend was incredible! It was really refreshing to see the beauty of God's creation all around. So peaceful, tranquil, and beautiful everywhere I went. The service was spot on, the food was really good, and the people were really friendly. I would recommend The Peaks to anyone!

The rooms were very comfortable. I've been wanting to stay here for a couple years now. However I didn't realize due to the proximity of mother's Day the restaurant ran out of food the first night of my stay which prompted us to have to drive to town to find a place to eat. However I would book it again as I enjoy the area

Amazing location

Location is absolutely amazing. Food was excellent. Staff were very friendly, there was a shortage of staff, which led to the bar closing. There was also a shortage on the housekeeping side, we stayed for 3 nights and had to ask for clean towels.

Needs work but beautiful scenry

I went there and checked in only to have issue number one which was they tried to double charge me for the 3 rooms I booked. After sorting that out we went out and enjoyed the property. The property is clean and is in an amazing location!! 10/10 for location. However after the first night we stayed we got locked out of all three rooms. I had to run to the lodge to get new keys and it was pouring rain. When I got back to the hotel we found out they took all our towels and soap. I had to once again run back to the lodge to get new ones. When I explained the situation the lady at the front desk was very understanding but said she didn’t know how it happened as they didn’t have a cleaner…so who cleaned my room? Nothing was stolen. But given the issues I personally had I more than likely will not be returning.

Best Mountain / lake View EVER!

The room was clean and the view is spectacular! Sharp Top Mtn and the Lake Abbott are the very best ! Coffee in the morning, on the porch is my favorite. At night the stars twinkle off the lake. The cool night breeze is really refreshing ! This is my “Happy Place!”
