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.

Perfect for families

From 62 to 7 months old—we all enjoyed our stay at this special home. Elegant, comfy, beautiful vistas and landscaping. I hope there is a return visit sometime in our future.

FANTASTIC GETAWAY

We loved this very private property perched with the perfect views from the back porch. The owner has taken great care to make this place perfect and is extremely helpful and communicative. We LOVED everything about our long weekend at Mashburn. The entire home is beautifully decorated, comfortable and cozy. The kitchen is fully equipped, hot tub has an incredible view and the fire pit was so fun even in July. Nothing you will need is more than a 10-12 minute drive (groceries, dining, shopping, tubing, hiking, fishing, boating...) and downtown Clayton is AMAZING! We will be back!

Wonderful Home and Experience

We enjoyed staying at Lakemont. It was in a beautiful, peaceful location within a short drive into Clayton for shopping and restaurants. The home was so well appointed, and the owners have done such an amazing job with the design. We had everything we needed for our 4 night stay. My family really enjoyed spending time in the hot tub, and when temperatures dipped, we had plenty of opportunity to build a fire inside and outside. The owners even delivered firestarters to the house when we inquired. We want to return.
