We visited Rough Creek Lodge at the end of October for a corporate planning session. I booked the trip through Christy who then handed me over to Ty to finalize all of the details for the trip. To start, Ty was very easy to communicate with and easily accessible via email which is my preferred form of contact for these types of things. We had mulitple changes leading up to the event and Ty was quick to respond so we could work it out.
Upon arrival, our meeting room was ready to go just as requested. The food was amazing the entire stay (some of our group even deemed it "too fancy") and all waitstaff and bartenders were very accommodating. I cannot say enough about that view from the dining room (also have the same view from all guest rooms). The rolling hills are just gorgeous and seem to have no end. We did the golf challenge (some in our group really enjoyed, others thought it was "OK") and we rented 2 mules the second afternoon. I would highly recommend the mules - and don't be afraid to take them off the beaten path! Make sure you take them around the 6 mile trail to the lookout point that is marked on your map. It's a steep climb up the 133 steps, but the view is INCREDIBLE and absolutely worth it.
We will definitely consider Rough Creek for our next planning event.
