Our stay in Clayton was lovely. The house was very charming with a big kitchen and beautiful back deck. There was a small issue with ants on the ground level but there were already ant traps out, so it was being taken care of. Overall we had a great experience!

Lovely house within walking distance of everything. Very responsive host. We had a wonderful time. The only thing that would have made it better is if we had booked an extra week; we didn't want to leave!
