About this property

Escape to Relax at Our 2br 2ba Classy Clayton Family Cottage 5min To Downtown

Not your typical mountain cabin. This is our updated and well furnished Clayton Cabin.

2 bedroom and 2 full bathroom cottage in Clayton, N. Georgia! Just off Hwy 76 and close to Downtown Clayton, our Cottage is probably one of the nicest most updated cottages you will visit; in one of our favorite mountain towns, CLAYTON! It's not just a rental, it's where we like to escape too. Completely remodeled inside and out, sits just on top of the hill off Hwy 76 - which takes you to Lake Burton, Hiawassee, Helen, Downtown Clayton and more. Central AC and Heat, New paint, new floors, new everything, including kitchen supplies.

Everything you will need in the kitchen, even a Kitchen Aid Mixer. Plates, Dishes, Glasses, Brew Coffee and Kcup coffee. Utensils, Woks, Frying Pans... you name it. Queen size beds in both rooms, leather reclining couches with USB ports in living room (kids love sleeping on them) and room for an air mattress (we left one there for you) all new appliances, a 50+ inch flat screen TV with Hulu in Living Room and TV in Master and BlueRay Dvd player. Free Wifi throughout, even small office space and extra work from vacation home supplies (printer, keyboard, monitor - PC, not Mac)


Full size stacked washer and dryer in master bedroom just behind the sliding barn door which leads to the full bath and shower. In hall find another full bath and 2nd amply sized guest bedroom.

Take in the views of the farmland and watch the world go by from the front patio or BBQ a bit out on the back patio. VIEW From Porch: https://youtu.be/yMLAWKfghzI

Roast some marshmallows, sure - go ahead, there is a small fire pit out back too! We love our cottage and we hope it shows when you visit and you will love it too.

We booked this place last minute and couldn’t have been happier. The home was cozy, very clean, and conveniently close to town. Communication with the host was smooth and friendly, which made everything easy. We especially enjoyed the fire pit and making s’mores, it brought some much-needed cheer during a stressful holiday season. Would absolutely stay again!

Cute place to stay. Pay attention to directions when first finding it, don't follow Google maps.Like how close it was to town and within driving distance of beautiful waterfalls and overlooks. Great food in town. Down side: Cow smell from across the street sometimes when on the porch and main road noise was a bit busy than expected

We loved our stay just outside of Clayton. The house, the style, the view, the location, and amenities were all on target or better than expected. Whole family loved it and would stay again! Andrew and Family were very helpful we breezed in and out without problems and provided family friendly advice.

Adorable cottage in a relaxing environment

Very comfortable and cute cottage. Nice seating on the porches to relax and enjoy the outdoors. Located about a mile from downtown Clayton so that you are away from the commercial area but close enough to access anything you need easily. The host was super accommodating and responsive with anything we needed.

About the host

Hosted by Andrew Mueller

Host profile image
This is our family vacation home to the mountains. After looking for 3+ years, we settled on Clayton, because we love it there. Great place for kids, family, and adventures. A great vibrant downtown, and all the creature comforts: Wal Mart, Ingles, Starbucks, etc. But you can go Downtown and throughout area for one of a kind eats, drinks, and shopping. We fell in love with this house for its proximity and ease to get to. And its completly redone inside and out.

Why they chose this property

Close to Downtown Clayton without being IN downtown. Just off the main road - so you wont get lost! All remodeled. Easy drive to downtown, other locales, the lakes, it's away from all, but not out in the boonies!

What makes this property unique

Fully stocked kitchen. All new appliances. All new floor, bedding, furniture and more. This is a true getaway but not miss out on feeling like this is a home you WANT to stay at. Classy, Comfy, Modern! WE love our house and hope you enjoy it too. Free Wifi, Great location, awesome views from patios.
