Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the resort was quite mixed. I really loved the scenic marina and enjoyed the peaceful ambiance, but I was disappointed with the lack of cleanliness and the service issues. The staff could have been more attentive, and this left a sour note on what could've been a great experience.
Overall, we had a trip filled with memorable moments, especially the stunning views and enjoyable marina experiences. However, we faced several setbacks regarding our room and safety issues during our stay. The service was friendly, albeit inconsistent, and while the location next to the marina was beautiful, it came with unexpected disturbances at night, which detracted from our experience.
I had a wonderful experience at Ridges Resort. The location on Lake Chatuge is stunning and offers breathtaking views. The staff were friendly and accommodating, which made for a pleasant getaway. However, the issues with the ice machine and some noise disturbances during the night were quite disappointing. Overall, it's a nice place to unwind with plenty of nature around.
The hotel is beautifully situated near a marina with lovely views, making it a nice spot for outdoor activities. However, my experience was marred by some concerning issues, such as a lack of security and disappointing guest service. While some aspects, like the cleanliness of the rooms, met my expectations, the overall service and response to unfortunate events left much to be desired.
