A Beautiful Gem in North GA

2 Seniors and our daughter and her husband and our small pups viewed this spot as absolutely excellent. So much space, well stocked and simply gorgeous views. Incredibly decorated and super secure on mountain top! We wanted a place close to Atlanta and a smalltown to explore and enjoy. This has it all!

Perfect house for our “girls” trip! I do not even know where to start in describing this house! The views were incredible ( mountains, sunsets, birds)! And all that could be seen sitting in the couch! The kitchen was equipped with literally everything I would use at my home and then some! Karen was an absolute wonderful hostess providing many extras for us to use as needed or wanted! The ease of checking in and checking out was as easy as I have ever done! I would certainly rent this home and recommend it to anyone! It was beautiful!

Exceeded our expectations!

Absolutely the best vacation rental that I have ever stayed in…..the sunset views from the deck are HEAVENLY!! We were in Clayton for our annual girls golf trip, but honestly I think we enjoyed the end of day time at the cabin/on the deck more than playing golf :/. The kitchen is fully stocked so we stayed in most nights instead of going out to dinner. Karen is an amazing host who wants her guests to feel at home, and we did :). Truly exceeded all our expectations- I just booked the entire cabin for this fall!! Bringing the whole family back to see the leaves -

Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We're happy to hear that Sunset Ridge was just what you needed for your girls' golf trip—and those sunset views really are something special, aren't they? We can’t wait to welcome you back this fall to enjoy the beautiful changing leaves with your family! 🍂

There is no doubt the Sunsets are Sweet at Sunset Ridge. We enjoyed the most magnificent sunset on our first night. The entire house was a great fit for our family with several teenagers and a few friends. The kids enjoyed the game room and the adults enjoyed peace upstairs. The kitchen was well-stocked and had everything we needed. The extra fridge in the laundry room was helpful to keep the drinks chilled. We got to enjoy the firepit with smores. The property owner even had a huge pile of firewood so we did not have to source that ourselves. We found lots of things to do around Clayton from shopping, zip lining near Highlands, and a round of golf at Kingwood Resort. We had a great time. Thanks!
