We had a wonderful stay! This was our second time at this property and words can’t describe it! The view is spectacular and the house is very clean and well stocked. Communication with Ron is very easy and he answers all your questions. Highly recommend staying here and we will definitely be returning!
Everything about our stay, was wonderful… cottage, amenities and location… if you’re looking for a quiet and serene place to enjoy nature and recharge… This is the perfect place!
We were so pleased with the location and the wonderful views. The place was super comfortable and fully stocked to meet every need and comfort! Hope we can come again soon!
Very relaxing stay in a beautiful location. Lots to do in the area and there are good restaurants. House is well equipped, the bed is comfortable, and the a/c works. Would return.
Clean, comfortable bed, well stocked. Very secluded, peaceful place but close to Ingles and restaurants. Good hiking in the area. Communication with Ron was excellent, checkin was smooth. I would stay here again.
Cute little cottage with great property and wonderful views
We had a great time at this tucked away cottage. It was a perfect place to enjoy some peace and quiet and let our dog roam the several acres of property. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a quiet getaway. Not far from stores and restaurants
Such a find... Lovely place with a beautiful view. Clean and had everything we needed. Very cozy. We are excited to reserve again in the near future. Also, if you want to eat out, there was amazing food in Clayton and surround towns.
This year we planned ahead- meaning we didn’t bother trying to visit anywhere else, we brought all of our food and relaxed on the property with our dogs. The photos truly undersell this spot. It is clean and provides everything you need for an escape from the rest of the world
This exceeded my expectations. The dogs had a great time roaming the property. And the views from the porch are awesome. Plenty of space for our small family and the owner is beyond generous with the extras that are supplied throughout the house. We will definitely be back soon!

Perfect getaway!
This retreat was exactly what we were looking for! It was easily accessible from Atlanta but felt like you were a million miles away once you got there. The cottage is adorable and had everything we needed (except wifi, but now we know to bring a hotspot with us next time). The dogs had a blast running around the large and private property and we can't wait to come back for another VERY relaxing weekend!

Thank you for your kind words! We are so glad you enjoyed your time at our cottage! Our pups love the fenced 4 acres to run on also! We will continue to upgrade the cottage and hope to see you come back.
Ron was an excellent host in getting back to us in answering questions re: heaters in the home, etc. The cabin was tidy, and had gorgeous views from all windows. IF someone has mobility issues, the different levels and steps might be a problem, but otherwise, it was an awesome and relaxing getaway, and we'd stay again in possible!
Photos really under-sell this location. Cabin is perfect, lots of windows with great natural light, beautiful view, great walk in shower. Dogs enjoyed it the most! Only thing which could have been better is if there was more of a path mowed on the property around the tall grass- but this was really just timing when surrounded by a hay field.
My wife and I enjoyed our stay. It was just the right size for the two of us and the setting was lovely. Our only complaints are that the television service does not include a lot of channels/apps and that there were several wasp nests under the patio awnings. Also, it would have been nice if you could drive onto the far end of the patio concrete and park there instead of having to park in the grass.
Due to the beautiful views we stayed outside more than inside. I feel like the landscape around the sitting areas could have been a little cleaned up and neater. Seemed like they were longing for attention. Overall we did enjoy our stay very much and would most likely stay again. Ron was very nice and answered all of our questions.
