The property was well appointed and our room named The Vineyard Suite featured the most comfortable bed and sitting area with a spa style bathroom with large walk in shower and claw foot soaking tub. We took advantage of the home cooked Filet Mignon dinner which allowed us to get to know the property and the owners. The meal was delicious and with the homes great room area with soaring windows allowing you to take in the natural surroundings it was perfect! The covered lanai was perfect for enjoying a glass of wine or cup of coffee and watching the humming birds fly around their feeders. Breakfast was another wonderful experience chef style creations and delicious coffees. I highly recommend the bourbon infused one. A short walk across the lawn takes you to their winery, Carin Winery with a comfortable feel, large wrap around porch, large air conditioned space with tables and bar and a great selection of wine, beer and snacks. They even have rooms above the winery space, too. This would make a great place for a family reunion or couples get away. The two weeping willow trees on the property are not only an ideal backdrop but inspire one of their wines also. The location while secluded but is convenient to Ellijay, Amicalola State Park, neighboring wineries, waterfalls and adventures. We'll be back!

Our interaction with Brent and his mom (Miss Mary) were great, and I will say, I think it was an extra treat to experience the hospitality of Miss Mary!! Clearly, Brent didn't fall far from the tree (no pun intended)! We booked the 'Rustic Cabin Suite' which was their lowest price room available at the time, but it was well furnished, comfortable, quiet, and perfect for a place to stay for two. It was quiet, peaceful, and tranquil. Don't forget to take advantage of the Carin winery next door, and I hear (we missed out) the lodge offers an add on steak dinner (plan in advance) that sounds divine, and in that environment, will be on our list for our next visit! The lodge itself is well-appointed with a beautiful seating/gathering/eating area downstairs. Breakfast was great with a menu of French toast and apple bake, sausage, fresh fruit, orange juice and some of the best flavored coffee I've had in a LONG time (bourbon infused pecan). Beautiful grounds, beautiful people (Brent, Miss Mary, and fellow guests) and you can't go wrong with a stay at the beautiful Bent Tree Lodge and Vineyard!!

Wow. Where to begin…read more I ordered ribs full rack. I'm a big rib lover. It's an expensive place to eat but I LOVE ribs. The server took forever just to take the order but that's not the focus of this review.... The ribs were so tough that I had to use a fork to even ATTEMPT to eat it. I ended up bending the fork so instead of being charged for the destruction of a fork, I ordered dessert just to make sure I had SOME type of food. Although I had friends who had worked there, the quality of the ribs were so bad that I expressed my concerns to the server. He said he would express his concern to the owner. I assumed I wouldn't have to pay for the ribs because I could only take a single bite and I paid for ribs, not jerky. But the owners decided just to give me my dessert half off. This isn't a cheap place. So the manager saw that I barely touched my ribs and that I was obviously upset. So instead of taking the EXPENSIVE ribs off the ticket, he gave me my dessert half off. Avoid this place if at all possible. There are far better places to eat and oh my goodness so much cheaper.
