Amazing Stay

The property was one of the cleanest and best equipped rentals we’ve stayed in. It had everything we needed for an extremely comfortable and relaxing stay. Very convenient to outdoors activities, shopping, restaurants, and towns which was so nice. The hosts were extremely communicative and welcoming.

Beautiful place

Perfect for a trip to the beautiful mountains in North Georgia! We were in town for a family wedding at Terra Incognita Vineyards and the location worked out great. We were able to spend some time in cute downtown Clayton as well, where there are several nice places to eat and cute shops. Everything was seamless and we would definitely stay at this home again.

Lovely property, kitchen was well stocked and views beautiful from the porch. Loved the decorations style and everything was comfortable. The only thing to note is that one of the bedrooms is actually a loft bedroom with minimal privacy. Fine for our group because we put a younger teen up there but may of been awkward if it was a couple or adult that wanted privacy

Fabulous home

So much to say. Home was beautiful. View, fabulous, even from the hot tub. The kitchen was well appointed and very nice linens. Plenty of wine glasses, cookware, serving ware, etc. We stayed for our wedding week, got to take fabulous pictures, plenty of room for getting ready. The host was so accomodating. We will definitely be back!!

Exceptional home

This property is wholeheartedly recommended. The house is beautifully appointed and was perfect for our family. The loft and downstairs allowed everyone to fit perfectly. It’s location is beautiful. We were in town for a wedding and not familiar with the area at all. Sara was so nice to offer her recommendations on golfing, farmers markets, and shopping. Everything she recommended was great. The town of Clayton is a must to visit and just minutes away. The home has everything you need to enjoy your time. One of the nicest VRBO properties I’ve stayed at. If I ever come back to this area I will definitely stay here again!

The Crew

Everything was really beautiful! We were a little confused about the fourth bedroom, not realizing it was a loft with very little privacy. I think describing it better might be helpful. Yet, our friend group is resilient and still had a great time! One of our friends left her jewelry bag and the owners were helpful in helping her recover it. Also, a few more lights in the adorable breakfast nook would help!

Cozy, clean and updated

It was a girls weekend in this lovely mountain home for us four ladies (of a certain age). We took lots of time chatting on the porch deck and taking in the Fall beauty of the mountains. We visited nearby Tallulalah Falls. We hiked to the observation decks and toured the interesting museum. We especially enjoyed the thrift shops in Clayton and Hiawassee. Daniel’s Steak House provided a delicious and reasonably priced meal in Hiawassee. The host provided precise directions to the house. The road was a bit steep but quite doable. The suite on the lower level was charming. Highly recommend this home and it’s gracious host, Sarah.
