Gorgeous cabin! It’s tastefully decorated, comfortable bed, and feels very secluded while being conveniently close to Clayton. We drove up on Friday after work, fought Atlanta traffic, and feeling pretty tired when we got in so we were especially appreciative of the little touches like labeling the light switches and having some kindling and wood ready for the fireplace. It was a nice stay :)

We had the best time at the cabin. Thank you so much for sharing your place with us. You were a wonderful host and we had such a great time. If you are looking for a mountain getaway this is the perfect spot. Close to cute downtown area and amazing hikes. We loved it and will definitely be back.

We had a nice fall getaway in this cabin. It is just as described in the listing. Its convenient to things in the area that you might want to do but it's also a nice place to just hang out and relax. Christina is very helpful with questions you might have.

This is the cabin in the woods that everybody wants! Convenient location and easy to find, yet tucked away and private. The furnishings were beautiful, clean, and comfortable.
The kitchen had everything you could possibly need or want, complete with a Keurig and coffee pods. The two sofas and armchair provide plenty of space to relax, and the dining table is large enough for a family dinner. The little game nook area is just right for a game of chess or go-fish, or to set up your laptop if you must. We only used the king sized bed, which was loaded with nice pillows, fresh-scented linens, and was very comfortable. There were plenty of bathroom towels, washcloths, soaps and shampoos.
We’ve stayed at several cabins and this one, while not the largest, was the most cozy, possibly the cleanest, and truly felt like a home away from home. We needed a peaceful weekend getaway, and I’m so grateful this cabin was available. Not a single complaint.
Special thank you to owner/hostess Christina, who promptly replied to my messages when I had a couple questions during our visit.
Everything about the property exceeded our expectations. The quietness, comfort, close to restaurants, shopping, hiking and recreation was unsurpassed to other vacations.
