The bungalow was cozy and charming, with all the modern amenities we needed. As a published decorator, I especially appreciated the thoughtful aesthetics and attention to detail. My husband and I have visited Clayton several times, but this trip we wanted to stay closer to downtown and we loved it! The location was perfect, just a short and easy drive into town with no steep roads, and the wide driveway made parking a breeze. Despite being so convenient, the bungalow still felt very private, nestled among tall trees with beautiful garden views. I especially loved relaxing on the porch. We would definitely love to come back and stay here again!

This beautiful cottage is exactly as described and even better. It is not only the hidden garden cottage but it is a hidden gem as well. The cottage is nestled in a quiet neighborhood conveniently located to downtown Clayton, yet it feels like you are far away from everything. The nights were quiet—the morning front porch swing was the perfect cozy coffee/tea sippin’ location. The furnishings and amenities were exceptional. Spotlessly clean, well maintained and well appointed for our needs. You can tell the hosts are invested in creating exceptional stays. Well done! We will be back!!

Secret Garden Bungalow is a Hidden Gem!

This was my second stay at the secret garden. Laurie is a great host and is very responsive.The location is perfect..close to great hiking, beautiful waterfalls, wineries and wonderful restaurants. The cottage is very comfortable, a nice retreat for soaking in the beauty of being surrounded by your own personal garden, relaxing on the porch and being serenaded by the sights and sounds of nature. We look forward to returning again!

This bungalow is adorable, cozy, comfortable, and is perfectly located for what we needed. The owner obviously takes pride in this property and has created a home away from home. We will definitely be staying here again when visiting family.

Our secret garden house

We first came to this home in winter and it was lovely…but the garden enticed us to come back when everything was in bloom…it did not disappoint! We enjoyed visiting and board games outside and lounged on the swing to read my book. It will not disappoint! We will be back!
