A gorgeous resort just outside Atlanta
By Joan M . Dungey , Puyallup WA
Fairfield Plantation is absolutely stunning ! Known by several names — Club Wyndham Villas at Fairfield , Wyndham Fairfield Plantation , or The Villas at Fairfield ( RCI 0261 ) — this resort was built in 1981 and offers four types of units , all surrounding Lake Tara in Villa Rica , Georgia .
We have stayed there over twentyfive times since 2005 , and it has always been wonderful . It ’ s our very favorite Wyndham resort . Located just twenty miles west of Atlanta on I-20 , the resort provides quiet , peaceful , and beautiful accommodations away from the city ’ s bustle , yet close enough to easily visit .
Many types of units
Our first stay was in a studio ( 360 square feet ), and we were impressed . It had a full kitchen complete with a dishwasher , a Murphy bed , a living area with a couch , a coffee table , and two easy chairs . It also featured a lakefront screened balcony with stairs down to the water .
It was so comfortable that we returned only months later and stayed in
Bedroom decor .
Tara Cove Balcony from LV .
a lakefront two-bedroom Tara Cove unit ( 965 square feet ), which has since become our favorite .
All Tara Cove units are lakefront in a three-story building with an elevator . These units have fireplaces with televisions above , two baths ( one with a jetted tub ), and all the comforts you could wish for . We have also stayed in the onebedroom ( 760 square feet ) lakefront units , which also have fireplaces
The Tara Gardens units ( two-bedroom plus , 1240 square feet ), across the street , are free-standing with vaulted ceilings , two screened porches , and a loft with two additional twin beds accessed via a spiral staircase . Some have lake views , though there are entry stairs to consider .
A remodeling in 2005 has given the resort the most gorgeous interiors , with an upscale “ Southern charm ” décor . While not managed by Wyndham , it is an affiliate resort , so some amenities might differ .
However , there were always plenty of kitchen supplies , dishes , pans , wi-fi , televisions with cable , a landline telephone with a local number , comfortable bedding , screened porches , and many personal touches . The white indoor shutters over the windows continue the traditional styling . Most units have washers
