We'd give 10 stars if we could! This is such a beautiful, memorable, and comfortable venue! The hosts, Karen and Scott, were amazing throughout the entire process from booking to planning to recommending vendors to pulling off our dream wedding.
First, the venue. Our wedding photos were incredible. We were in the countryside and surrounded by nature with a palette of colors across the trees, the lake, and the hills in the background. The pergola where we said our vows overlooking the lake was gorgeous and there was plenty of space to seat our guests.
The lodge was SUCH a cozy retreat during our stay. The bridal suite is the highlight! On the top floor, tons of light from all of the windows (really great for photos), a private bath & shower, separate walk-in closets, and amazing views of the countryside. There were plenty of rooms for our families and wedding party and you can't beat that rustic charm! There's a game room with a pool table and even a sauna and outdoor hot tub!
We're not from Georgia and don't live nearby so choosing vendors was probably the hardest part of the process for us. Karen and Scott's recommendations helped us tremendously! For example, we were originally going to go with another food vendor but decided to go with their local recommendation, The Pink Pig, and we're so glad we did! We wish we could go back and eat our wedding dinner again! The BBQ, the mac & cheese, the charcuterie... all incredible!
Our guests had a fantastic time and raved about the venue, scenery, and lodge. We still look back fondly at our wedding day and highly recommend Falling Waters Lodge for an unforgettable day and lasting memories.
