The Cozy Rose is a great option vs. hotels in Clayton. The property is very close to town, but on a quite street with very little traffic. The house is nicely updated and tastefully decorated. The bed in the master is very comfortable. We did not use the bunk beds in the second bedroom. The host has put a lot of effort into providing everything you will need to enjoy your stay. I would definitely the Cozy Rose.

Tonya's house was very clean, super cute, and just as described! The kitchen was amazing and the whole place was comfy and cozy! The first night we arrived, we sat on the front porch and watch the deer walk up the road, listened to the birds until late, and watch the fireflies flitter around after it got dark. It was so peaceful and just what we needed for our getaway!

Ohhhh, it warms my heart reading your review. I saw a deer in the yard, fireflies, and the groundhog in the back yard!! My favorite thing to do is have my coffee in the porch and listen to the birds! I hope you made it to some waterfalls! We have so many and the house is convenient to all of them! You are welcome anytime! Tanya

This is our 3rd time at this airbnb rental. We love it! My husfriend and I plus my little fur baby 'bella' do a vegetable run every year. The house has pots, pans and utensils that are great for cooking up a delicious meal. We spotted beautiful deer (doe & fawn) and the famous 'Georgia Rose' groundhog on the property. The master bedroom's bed was very comfortable, the living room area as well. I enjoyed the front porch in the late evening, listening to howling dogs, crickets, birds, etc. Always a wonderful stay.

This gem of a cottage is in Clayton GA. We were a little over a mile from downtown but it felt very rural. The whole experience was fantastic. Weather was hot, but we stayed cool under the trees. Beautiful yard full of flowers. WARNING! There is no washer or dryer, so prepare for that. There are also gremlins in the cottage. They hid my hats and glasses until we left. Tanya contacted us and followed up until our stuff was returned. She is a great host. We will definitely stay here again when we come to Clayton again.
