Clayton Cottage

The cottage was perfect. It is furnished with everything you can think of and more. We used the hot tub and roasted marshmallows over the fire pit. I truly enjoyed the easy walk into town.

Charming and comfortable

What a beautiful property. It really is quiet and secluded despite being right in Clayton. Thoughtful amenities and the bed was so comfortable. The fire pit is right next to the creek. The street is quiet and the property is so shady. The hot tub is the perfect place to listen to nature. Loved the outdoor seating on the front for reading in the early morning. Check in is super easy and the host is great. Hope to return some day soon!

Wonderful

Great place to spend time too get away from it all. Loved that it was walking distance to downtown Clayton, which has plenty of shopping and places to eat. The house has a beautiful outdoor area, but wish it would have had a gas bbq grill. Definitely will be going back.

Perfect getaway soot

The property was as described and the owner was very responsive. The cabin was so cute and relaxing on the creek. Loved sitting on the deck listening to the sound of water and soaking in the hot tub. It is within easy walking distance to the local brewery and downtown restaurants and shops. We would definitely stay again!

Everything about this place is amazing! It's the cleanest, most well appointed place I've ever stayed in. The location is great and the scenery is not to be beat.

Best Girls Weekend!

We had a great time at the cabin! Enjoyed coffee on the deck in the morning. Enjoyed wine in the hot tub in the afternoon's. Fire pit by the creek was so nice, be careful that last step when rainy is slick ;) The beds were sooo comfortable. Quality linens were a luxury, wish we had just a few more towels but made do. Heather checked in on us when we arrived, to see if we needed anything, such a nice gesture! The hot tub was such a treat, it was agreed with the girls we picked the best cabin in Clayton!

Great Place for Couples

This cabin had everything needed to enjoy the mountains. It is as described in the photos and has a nice feel to it. There is plenty of outdoor space to enjoy with lighting that makes nights even more enjoyable. A variety of hikes are a short drive away. When the hiking is done, shopping and dinning are less than a mile from the cabin. We really enjoyed both the cabin and close proximity to town. We would stay here again.

Perfect in every way!

The Creekside Cabin in Clayton, GA is truly amazing. The cabin is beautiful. It is in a peaceful location with an easy walk into town with sidewalks all the way. The cabin has everything you need. The beds are comfortable. The hot tub is relaxing. This is the perfect place for a peaceful, relaxing getaway. Great communication with the owner. The owner responded immediately if I had a question.

Cozy Cabin on the River

Cabin is walking distance to charming downtown, yet nestled off by itself in a nest of wooded area by a stream. Hot tub on the deck was pretty big and clean. Jets were awesome on it! There are strings of Edison type bulbs everywhere outside, so it is well lit. Chairs and fire pit are down by the river as well a hammock. Kitchen was well stocked and beds comfy. Host thought of everything for our stay!

Perfect Quiet Getaway

Creekside Cabin was the perfect place for my husband and I to get away for a couple of days before the start of the hectic academic year. The inside and outside of the cabin where as cute and cozy as they could be! Heather is a great communicator! We really appreciated that she and her crew were able to accommodate an early check-in and provided coffee (one less thing to buy for a two-night stay!). I would 100% recommend.

Incredible little getaway

Heather was a very nice and communicative host. 3 people slept comfortably in a quaint and thoughtful cabin. there were so many nice touches to the design and experience. You are right off the main road which we thought would be loud or in the way, but barely any cars passed and it was honestly the best case scenario because we felt safe while still feeling like a getaway. Close walk to downtown - pass on dinner at Fortify for a local bbq joint. We’ll be back!!

Perfect cabin for those who want modern comfort

Heather's cabin was absolutely adorable! We wanted to feel like we were cabin camping but with modern, updated amenities; and this was perfect. The host was very communicative and accomodating for our small child. The home was well-stocked with quality products (rare in my experience) and very clean - VERY clean! I have never seen a cleaner hot tub! It is also one of the only places in the area that allows a single-night rental, which we needed but we would have loved to have stayed longer. It was also conveniently located only a minute or 2 to downtown Clayton, but it felt secluded. We loved our stay and would definitely recommend this place!

Relaxing in the GA Mountains

Our group (2 couples) had attended a Saturday wedding in Gainesville, GA. We were looking for a relaxing place to stay for a night, that was on our way home to NC. Clayton, GA and the cottage fit the bill perfectly. The cottage is exactly as advertised. Walking distance from Main Street and it's shops/restaurants/breweries was fantastic. We had an early dinner and sat around the fire pit for the rest of the evening. Absolutely Perfect! The owners, made the process easy and were very attentive to any needs, but we didn't need a thing. It was already there. We will definitely stay there again, if we return to Clayton.

Beautiful modern cabin for a getaway

My partner and I had a delightful time in this cabin! It is, as mentioned on the listing, walking distance to downtown Clayton and is very close to a road, but the road is not particularly well travelled and the rear of the cabin still feels secluded and private. The porch space over the creek is a perfect place to relax; it's about as close to feeling like you are in the woods as you can get while still being so close to the amenities in town. (The thoughtful arrangement of fairylights make evenings spent on the porch truly enchanting!) Everything was clean and prepared for our arrival with some nice little touches. The interior is decorated tastefully and with a modernist sensibility, well-suited for a cabin in this particular style. The size is ideal for a couple or a small family, and the layout is both cozy and convenient. Everything worked well, from the kitchen appliances to the hot tub, which was clean and heated for our arrival. Checking in and out was the easiest experience I have had with a VRBO property as well! The owner is both friendly and communicative. Nothing went wrong during our stay, but I am confident that if we had any issues she would have taken care of it quickly. I highly recommend this property if you're looking for a place close to town that feels secluded and has everything you could want in a getaway cabin. I will certainly be looking to return should I ever wish to stay close to Clayton!
