Georgetown Mountain Inn: Unbelievable Views, Unforgettable Stay!
Georgetown Mountain Inn: Unbelievable Views, Unforgettable Stay! (…Mostly) – A Messy, Honest Review
Alright, folks, grab your hiking boots (or your slippers, no judgment!) because I just spent a week at the Georgetown Mountain Inn, and I’m here to spill the tea, the coffee, and maybe a little bit of my own emotional baggage. The website promises "Unbelievable Views, Unforgettable Stay!" and yeah, they're not entirely lying. But let's be real, life (and hotels) ain't perfect.
First Impressions & Ramblings on Accessibility:
Pulling up, the views… chef’s kiss. Seriously breathtaking. The Inn sits perched right on the edge, like a majestic eagle about to swoop down and steal your picnic. Now, about accessibility: it’s a mixed bag. The website says they have Facilities for disabled guests, and there is an elevator, which is huge. But… and there’s always a "but," isn't there? Navigating the common areas could get complicated if you have mobility issues. Lots of little nooks and crannies, some stairs here and there. I'd call them to get the real lowdown on specifics, and ask about the rooms because I didn't see any obvious signs of accessible accommodation.
Rooms: My Cozy Mountain Lair (and its Quirks):
Once I unpacked, it was home to my room, and it was pretty fantastic. I’m talking a beautiful Non-smoking room (thank goodness!), a comfy Extra long bed (because, you know, legroom is key), and a window that opens – hello, fresh mountain air! The blackout curtains were seriously effective; I could sleep through a zombie apocalypse in there. Also, I can't forget the bathrobes and the slippers, which are a luxury that you can't underestimate.
There was the usual stuff, a coffee/tea maker, a refrigerator (important for stashing my emergency chocolate stash), and a desk which I attempted to use for some work. Internet access – wireless was free (hooray for Wi-Fi [free]!), but the signal was… spotty. Sometimes blazing fast, sometimes like trying to connect to the internet with a dial-up modem. I remember having to make a very important video call while I was staying there. I was sweating, because the internet was just taking so long loading, I almost wanted to yell. Fortunately, it did start loading finally and I could do my call.
Oh, and pro-tip: the mirror is HUGE. Perfect for pre-dinner selfies. (Don't judge.)
Cleanliness & Safety: The Sanitization Saga (and Some Anecdotes):
Okay, here's where things get serious. In this climate, Cleanliness and safety are paramount. The Inn is taking precautions about the pandemic. They offered Hand sanitizer everywhere, and the staff was wearing masks. There was Daily disinfection in common areas and Rooms sanitized between stays, with the room sanitization opt-out available, in case you’re one of those folks who like to smell the actual environment. The whole sanitization thing was pretty impressive. The staff all seemed to be trained properly, and there were Anti-viral cleaning products being used.
And now for a short anecdote. I remember, one of the times I went down for breakfast, and I saw them cleaning the tables, while I was on my way out of the building. The guy was wearing a mask, and all his equipment.
Dining, Drinking, and Snacking: The Food Odyssey (and My Over-Eating):
Alright, foodie time! The restaurants are, in a word, decent. They had Restaurants for both Western and Asian cuisine in restaurant and you could have Breakfast [buffet] or an A la carte in restaurant option.
The Breakfast [buffet] was the highlight, honestly. A wide spread. There was also a Coffee shop, which was great in the morning. If you wanted any of the drinks you could order them.
The Happy hour at the Bar was good too!
The Things to Do (and My Attempts at Relaxation):
Now, the fun stuff! The Georgetown Mountain Inn aims for the ultimate ways to relax. I wanted to utilize them all, but there were a few that I never got around to doing.
- Swimming Pool [outdoor] and Pool with view: Beautiful!
- Spa, Sauna, Spa/sauna, Steamroom: You want to hear my opinion? Incredible.
- Gym/fitness and Fitness center: Didn't use it, I was too busy eating pancakes.
- Foot bath: Nope.
- Body scrub and Body wrap: Didn’t experience it, but I heard some good things!
- Massage: Worth the money!
Services and Conveniences: The Helpful Stuff (and Some Minor Gripes):
The usual suspects. Lots of helpfulness, with Air conditioning in public area, Cash withdrawal, Concierge, Elevator, Daily housekeeping, Luggage storage, and etc. The Front desk [24-hour] was helpful.
But… the Laundry service was expensive. And the Food delivery options were limited (but then again, you are in the mountains).
Things For the Kids:
I didn't get a chance to look, or experience any of the For the kids options.
The Bottom Line (and My Emotional Verdict):
So, is the Georgetown Mountain Inn "Unbelievable Views, Unforgettable Stay?" Mostly, yeah. The views are genuinely breathtaking, and the overall experience is good. It's not a flawless experience, but it's charming, comfortable, and does a good job in the pandemic.

Okay, buckle up buttercups. This isn't your perfectly-curated Instagram travel diary. This is the REAL DEAL. Georgetown Mountain Inn, here we come… maybe. Let's see if I can even remember to write this thing…
Georgetown Mountain Inn: My Possibly-Maybe-Happening-If-I-Don't-Get-Distracted Itinerary (and a Whole Lotta Rambling)
Day 1: The Arrival (and the Immediate Need for a Really. Good. Coffee.)
- 8:00 AM: Wake up. Or TRY to wake up. This is where the "perfectly curated" part IMMEDIATELY falls apart. My alarm’s going off, the cat's demanding breakfast, and honestly, I’m already questioning my life choices. Planning trips? Who even am I?
- 8:30 AM: Coffee. Coffee. COFFEE. Must. Have. Coffee. Needed to survive until I can get there. Found some gas station drip that will do the trick.
- 9:00 AM: Pack the car. The meticulously planned packing list? Yeah, that went out the window the moment I saw my overflowing suitcase. Cramming, praying, and hoping I didn't forget anything essential (like my phone charger… because, y'know, survival).
- 9:30 AM: Forget the map. Google Maps it is!
- 10:00 AM: Drive. The open road! (Well, a highway, but close enough). Cue the playlist. Mostly 90s/2000s nostalgia hits. Don't judge.
- 12:00 PM: Arrive. Finally! Georgetown Mountain Inn. Okay, it's… charming. Like, aggressively charming. Like a Hallmark movie set (but hopefully with less forced sentimentality). The air is crisp, smells amazing.
- Immediate reaction: "Oh, wow, that's actually way prettier than the pictures!" (Gasp!)
- 12:15 PM: Check-in. The person at the desk seems nice. Ask for a room away from the road, need some peace and quiet.
- Anecdote: I swear, the first time I went to a place like this I almost didn't speak up about wanting to be away from the road. Thinking they'd think I was ridiculous. I learned my lesson.
- 12:30 PM: Room reveal. (Fingers tightly crossed)
- First thought: YES! Cute little cabin-y room, and a view of… mountains! Score. Now to unpack, or try to.
- 1:00 PM: Lunch. Okay, this place has a restaurant. Let’s see, is it good?
- Review: The food was alright, the service was amazing. Not bad for the first meal.
- 2:00 PM: Explore Georgetown. I want to do some walking trails. It could be a disaster if I didn't prepare, so I'm going to prepare.
- Observation: The town. It smells of pine trees. I don't want to get lost.
- 5:00 PM: Back to inn. Relaxing a bit after the walking trail.
- 7:00 PM: Dinner. Probably at the inn restaurant again.
Day 2: The Mountain Air (and a Potential Existential Crisis)
- 8:00 AM: Wake up. Again. Still questioning everything. Maybe a mountain breakfast?
- Quirky Observation: Why is it so much harder to get out of bed when you're theoretically on vacation? Is it the lack of responsibility, or the sheer panic of having nothing scheduled?
- 9:00 AM: Breakfast. Okay, this time, I'm determined to conquer the buffet. Waffles, here I come.
- Emotional Reaction: The waffles were… heavenly. Maybe too heavenly. I may have eaten three. Regrets? Maybe later. Right now, just pure, unadulterated carb bliss.
- 10:00 AM: Hiking. I packed hiking boots, I’m using them. Decided on a medium level trail so I don’t die.
- Rambling: Hiked for a while. Stopped for pictures.
- 1:00 PM: Lunch. Pack some sandwiches for the trail.
- Opinionated Language: All you have to do is make a sandwich!
- 2:00 PM: More hiking.
- Anecdote: I met someone on the trail. We started talking about life's purpose, suddenly, I had an existential crisis.
- 5:00 PM: Nap time.
- Messier Structure: I need a nap. Hiking makes you tired.
- 7:00 PM: Dinner.
- Stronger emotional reactions: I went back to the room. I don't feel like eating.
Day 3: The Unexpected (and the Longing for Home)
- 8:00 AM: Wake up.
- Rambling: Okay, I need to stop sleeping in.
- 9:00 AM: Breakfast.
- 10:00 AM: Check out.
- Opinionated Language: The room could be nicer, but the stay was incredible.
- 11:00 AM: Hit the road. Time to go.
- 12:00 PM: Stop.
And that, my friends, is MY possible itinerary. It's probably going to get messed up. I'll probably get lost. I'll probably forget something important. But that, is the beauty of travel. The imperfections, the unexpected detours, the moments of pure, unadulterated awesomeness. Here's hoping I remember to write down some of it, so I can have a laugh, and at least a little bit of a usable memory. Wish me luck!

Georgetown Mountain Inn FAQs: Where the Mountains (and My Sanity) Meet
Okay, spill the beans. What's *really* the view like? Is it as good as the Instagram pics?
Alright, listen. The view? Yeah, it's...good. Actually, it's bordering on ridiculous. Remember that time you saw a photo of the Grand Canyon and thought, "Meh, probably photoshopped?" It's *kinda* like that, but with more trees and less...well, canyon. The pictures are accurate, but they *can't* capture the sheer jaw-dropping-ness of it all. You'll be sitting there, coffee in hand, thinking, "Did I accidentally book a trip to heaven?" (Spoiler alert: probably not, because heaven doesn't typically have questionable Wi-Fi. More on that later.)
I remember one morning, I was wrestling with some emails (the *joy* of remote work, am I right?), and I looked up. BOOM. Sunrise over the mountains. I literally cried. Seriously. Not a dignified sob, more of a "Oh, my actual God, that's beautiful" blubbering mess. So yeah, the view is good. It's *life-altering* good.
Is the Inn actually *in* Georgetown? And what's Georgetown like, anyway?
Yes, the Inn is *in* Georgetown! Situated a little ways up, actually. Georgetown itself is a charming little town - think quaint, historic, and full of mountain air that'll make you feel like you just guzzled a gallon of Red Bull (without the heart palpitations). The vibe is relaxed, a welcome change from the city noise. If you crave the hustle and bustle, well, you've come to the wrong place (which is a *very* good thing).
Think antique shops, good coffee, and a general feeling of "time slowing down." I spent an afternoon wandering around, and it felt like a movie set. Seriously, even the dogs looked photogenic. Parking can be a bit of a nightmare sometimes, especially on a busy weekend, but it’s worth the hassle.
How are the rooms? Cozy? Cramped? Do they skimp on the amenities?
The rooms themselves? Well… they’re not the Ritz, but they're charming, and honestly, you're not there to spend all day in the room, are you? They vary, so check the room descriptions. Mine was spacious, and the bed? Oh, the bed. A cloud of pure, fluffy bliss. I could have stayed there forever. Okay, maybe not forever. But a really, *really* long time. The decor is mountain-y, which is expected, and the bathrooms are functional, although the water pressure can be a little… enthusiastic. Make sure you shower before your partner!
Amenities-wise, it's pretty decent. Coffee maker, mini-fridge, and usually a fireplace. The fireplace is a *game changer*, especially in the winter. Just… learn how to light a fire beforehand. I spent a good hour trying, and the only thing I managed to generate was a lot of smoke and a profound sense of inadequacy. Thankfully, a friendly staff member saved the day (and my eyebrows).
What's the deal with the Wi-Fi? I NEED to check my work emails (or, you know, scroll through Instagram).
Ah, the Wi-Fi. The great leveler. Let's just say the mountains are beautiful, but they are not exactly known for their fiber optic cables. The Wi-Fi *is* available, but it can be a bit… temperamental. Think dial-up speed, but slightly less frustrating. Okay, maybe *more* frustrating.
If you absolutely *must* be online, be prepared to step outside and hold your phone up like you’re casting a spell to summon the internet gods. Honestly, though, embrace the digital detox. Read a book, actually talk to the people you’re with, or just stare at the view. Your boss can probably wait.
Is the staff friendly? Crucial, I think!
The staff? Oh, they're lovely! Honestly, some of the friendliest people I've ever met. They truly seem to *want* you to have a good time. They're helpful, welcoming, and always seem to be smiling. They're also incredibly patient (as the aforementioned fireplace debacle demonstrated) and have a knack for offering excellent local recommendations. The front desk staff are always, *always* helpful.
I had a minor issue with the lock on my door, and they came up immediately. The problem wasn't even a problem, but the guy who came gave me the best restaurant recommendation I'd heard all year. The only slight criticism I'd make is that sometimes it felt like there weren't enough staff, especially during peak hours, but that's a minor quibble overall.
Food! Is there a restaurant? What's the breakfast situation? I *need* to know.
Yes, there is a restaurant! It's decent. The food is… solid. Not Michelin-star quality, mind you, but perfectly acceptable after a long day of hiking or sightseeing. Breakfast is usually included, and it’s a decent spread. Expect your standard fare: eggs, bacon, toast, maybe some pancakes if you're lucky. Nothing life-changing, but it'll fill you up and fuel your adventures.
The coffee, however… is *not* the Inn's strong suit. Bring your own instant if you're a coffee snob, or plan to venture into town for your caffeine fix. There are a couple of highly rated coffee shops in town. The lunch and dinner menus have some good choices, but I found myself venturing elsewhere most nights for a bit more variety. But hey, for convenience, you can't beat it!
Any secret tips or things I should know *before* booking?
Okay, a few things! First, book in advance, especially if you're going during peak season. The Inn is popular, and rooms fill up fast. Second, the altitude is real. If you're not used to it, take it easy on your first day. Drink *lots* of water. And bring sunscreen, even if it doesn't seem sunny. The sun is intense up there.
Third (and this is important): Pack layers. The weather in the mountains can change in the blink of an eye. You might be basking in sunshine one minute and shivering in a downpour the next. Fourth: Don't expect a 5-star resort experience. This is the mountains. It's about the view, the escape, and the feeling of being away from it all. Embrace the imperfections. And finally… bring a good book. You'll thank me later. And if you see a red-haired woman wandering around with a camera, it's me. Come say hi!
