Liked: Cleanliness
Nice little house. Perfect for a couple or those with 2 children. Very clean. First night a herd of deer walked through the back yard. We thought it was one of the best places we've stayed. Even though it's surrounded by trees and feels like being in the forest, it's only 5 minutes from downtown and all the shops and restaurants. One caveat, a lot of restaurants and shops are closed on Tuesdays so plan ahead.

Great place to stay

We had a great time at the Rabun Retreat. Everything was as described in the listing. The property was very clean and fully equipped with lots of towels and kitchen utensils. The house was very nicely appointed. The best thing is the price. you won't find another property this nice for this price.

An adorable cottage that is private. Deer visits are so special and it’s in walking distance to the quaint downtown. I couldn’t have been more relaxed in this charming cottage. The owners are great and respect your privacy .

Private and quaint Oasis

I had the pleasure of staying here for a few months while my home was being renovated right down the street. It was perfection!! It’s an adorable cottage that is nestled in the woods with visits from deer that of course bring peace. It was great to open the door and bring the fresh air in from the screened porch. Even the rock driveway running through the trees had the most beautiful soft green moss . It’s was fabulous!! The host is exceptional and very kind.

The home had everything you could need. The property manager was very responsive. 11am check-out was nice surprise. Beds very comfortable. Firepit and grill were great. Just a great little town nearby, while still feeling like you're in a very remote area.

Retreat in the city

What a great spot! The house is in a somewhat community setting, but set off the road in the woods, so feels very secluded. We were easily within walking distance to mainstreet. A great way to have a quiet place to relax and sleep with access to the city of Clayton, and all the near by parks and national forest areas. The space itself was comfortable for 2 people and 2 smaller pups. I look forward to coming back again!

This is our 4th stay at this rental and as always, it is just what we need. Close to everything but peaceful and quiet. It also has everything you need to prep for meals, make coffee and sit out under the trees and listen to nature. It is clean and perfect for our weekend stays. Will rent again for our next trip to Clayton.

Thanksgiving Family Getaway

This home was great for our family of 4. We were very close to Clayton and other areas. We went to visit my mother who lives in Mountain City. My siblings all brought their families to visit as well, so we needed somewhere close, to not have to drive too far to visit, but that was also accommodating for a family with small kids(age 1 and 6). It had everything we needed. If for any reason you need to buy any groceries or need to shop for anything there are options near by. The owner answers any questions you have very fast and is very helpful. Its a nice home away from home. If we ever need a place to stay when visiting Georgia, this is a place I would definitely stay again.

Great Location!

We enjoyed our stay, until the day before departure. A man knocked loudly on the front door. It scared us because we were not expecting anyone. He was w/ the management property and wanted to do yard work. We unfortunately agreed, and got to hear a leaf blower for the rest of the afternoon. We would of given a 5 star review if that had not occurred. W/ that said, we want to end on a positive note. The bed was ahhhhhmazing! So comfortable, especially after our long hikes. We enjoyed playing games and listening to the record player. The kitchen was adequate w/ regards to appliances. It was also well stocked. We were able to prepare most of our meals. The cabin is secluded, BUT w/ i walking distance to the town. Again, great location. We also really loved the decor of the cabin. We believe most people will enjoy their stay! We hope this review helps everyone!
