The Cabin @Possum Trot provided the perfect escape! Located just two miles from downtown Clayton, yet very secluded, the location was ideal. The cabin was decorated beautifully!

Clean, peaceful and charming

The Cabin in the Woods was the perfect spot for a relaxing mountain getaway. Close to town and activities, but secluded enough to feel the peace of nature.

The cabin was as beautiful as pictured. It was very comfortable inside as well as outside. We loved the screen porch and the deck with fire pit. The cabin was easy to reach. The host was helpful. The nearby town of Clayton had some very nice shops and very good restaurants. Great and varied hiking nearby.

Wonderful Weekend

We had a wonderful weekend at Possum Trot Cabin. It was quiet and relaxed which is exactly what we were hoping for. The house had everything we needed and then some as far as amenities, cookware, utensils, towels, blankets and anything else you could want. The location is perfect for staying away from town or going to it.

This is such a gem of a place! We stay here every time we come to stay in Clayton. It has such a cozy feel and it is 3 miles from town. You would never know it though, you feel like you are deep in the woods. We will be back again and again!

Great Retreat, Beautiful Location, Lovely Cabin

My husband and our two adult daughters went to Possum Trot Cabin. Christine was fantastic, gave us great information about the area, the cabin was decorated perfectly, LOVED the porch and the town of Clayton was charming. The cabin is tucked away in the woods, lots of greenery and super relaxing.

Long weekend at Possum Trot

Absolutely loved the cabin! The most well appointed VRBO listing I’ve ever stayed in! The screened in porch was the best! We were talking about a return trip as we were pulling out of the driveway!

Amazing!!! Highly recommend! So beautiful and everything is well thought out and top of the line! We travel to the mountains from Florida every 3 to 4 months and always VRBO. This by far has been our favorite. Compliments to the host!

Perfect Getaway, wish we stayed longer!

Love-Love- Love- We absolutely loved this cabin. It was very clean, tastefully decorated and well appointed. It was the perfect getaway for me and my husband. We thoroughly enjoyed coffee on the porch and wine by the fire pit ever day. So much to do nearby, hiking, restaurants, waterfalls.. truly a nature lovers paradise. We will definitely return to this unique spot.

Fabulous, relaxing stay

Christina's "cabin in the woods" is worthy of all the 5 star reviews! Our family was impressed with the attention to details, the decor, the comfort, and the abundance of amenities. The beds and linens were extraordinary; it was difficult to rise to start the mornings. The cabin and surrounding area is so peaceful, along with the charm of Clayton, that we cannot wait to return to this property!

January Stay

Cabin was cute, clean and as described. Wood stove is a little tricky but does work according to the instructions provided. We had an issue with water pressure in the bathroom but Christina was very responsive and got us access to the cabin on site for use of that shower. Would stay here again.
