The Ritz-Carlton Reynolds Lake Oconee
If you're going to splurge on a Lake Oconee stay, this is the one. The Ritz-Carlton Reynolds sits right on the water in Greensboro and delivers the full resort experience, five championship golf courses, a world-class spa, lakeside dining, boating, a private beach, and the kind of service that makes you feel like the only guests there.
Rooms range from lake-view guest rooms to private waterfront cottages and a three-story Lake House. The dining lineup alone is worth the stay: Linger Longer Steakhouse, the Italian-inspired Amore del Lago, Gaby's by the Lake for poolside lunch, and the hidden-gem Oconee Cove bar for rare spirits and small plates.
It's 75 miles from Atlanta, AAA Five Diamond rated, and holds a MICHELIN Key designation — the only property at Lake Oconee that can say that. Families, couples, golfers, and wedding parties all find their lane here.
Good to know: Rates from $450/night. Check-in is at 4pm, check-out at 11am. Pets welcome (2 dogs, $150 fee). Valet parking only at $32/day. Nearest airport is ATL.
