Glen-Ella Springs Inn Bed & Brekafast, Clarkesville's premier country inn since 1987, was chosen as Georgia's Favorite Bed & Breakfast Inn by readers of Georgia Magazine in July 2005 & 2003. This century old historic inn was restored in 1987 is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Glen-Ella Springs Inn and Meeting Place is the only meeting facility in North Georgia that specializes in small conferences and retreats. We only schedule one group at a time which allows our staff to concentrate on your group during your stay.

In it’s first ever “Stay List”, National Geographic Traveler Magazine has chosen 150 hotels in the US, Canada, Mexico and the Caribbean, which meet their criteria of celebrating authenticity in the “soul of its location.” Glen-Ella Springs was one of 4 Georgia Inns to be named to this.

Great place to celebrate a birthday! We can't wait to go back and stay longer! The owners and staff go out of there way to make your visit special. They seem to love what they do, and it shows in how the inn is run!

We decided to celebrate our 5th anniversary with a last minute over-night trip to Glen-Ella Springs B&B. We had a baby girl 6 months ago and to say we were needing some alone time and sleep would be an understatement! We were greeted that night when we checked in by a warm staff person, a BEAUTIFUL room, two robes, and SILENCE! We couldn't have asked for a better 12 hour retreat - we even almost slept past breakfast! We met the inn keepers at breakfast and left already talking about planning another stay. We would highly recommend this B&B and the beautiful country surrounding it!

Lovely inn in lovely location that appears to be very remote although it is easy to find and not too far from a major highway. Staff makes you feel like you are visiting friends. Inspiring herb and perennial gardens. Nice amenities and attention to detail. Feel like you are on another planet... far, far from the city. Highly recommend.

This is a beautiful inn. Secluded, relaxing location. Every staff member was very friendly and helpful. I loved the rooms which are all wood from floors to walls to ceiling with tasteful decor. Laid back feel, kid-friendly yet still elegant. I would definitely return to this inn and highly recommend it.

The building was charming, clean and updated and completely functional, despite dating from 1875. Room A/C units kept us comfy. Wifi was great. The swimming pool was delightful. Meals were delicious; local wines were good. All the staff were friendly and helpful. I highly recommend Glen-Ella both for accommodations and for dinners.

Glen-Ella defines historical, secluded, mountain get-a-ways. First class dining with 5 star amenities, numerous local attractions (hiking, waterfalls, mountain top viewing, wineries, and for the pilots - check out Heaven's Landing).

I highly recommend Glen Ella Springs Inn. This is a warm and inviting Inn away from the hustle and bustle of city life. The rooms and beds are very comfortable. The staff could not have been any more attentive or accommodating than they were. The meeting space is private and very quiet; chairs are extremely comfortable and the set-up is perfect for a meeting. The food is absolutely delicious. Kudos to the staff as well as the Inn. Great job!!
