Peaceful
Just the perfect getaway location. Waking up each morning to the magnificent sunrise peaking over the mountains is to die for. Love the cabin so much and would recommend to anyone needing to disconnect and recenter themselves.

No place like it
This was one of the most private and beautiful cabins I've had the pleasure to stay at. The home was cozy and the view was breathtaking. An added bonus was the farms animals located near the property, which me and my guests all had the pleasure of petting. Would definitely stay again!

Great stay!!
We had a couple hiccups initially with the TV and internet but Carol was extremely attentive and with the help of her neighbor Todd, everything worked out great. The property itself was wonderful and the view was just something we could have stared at all day. Don't miss the sunrise! We all loved our visit and we're already planning our return.

A lovely peaceful, scenic farm with expansive mountain views
What a hidden gem! On a gorgeous piece of property, this house feels remote yet is a quick drive to downtown Clayton. The home and views are even better than the VRBO listing photos. There are plenty of places for large groups to gather whether in the kitchen, dining room, or enormous porch with expansive views of the mountains. The host was an excellent communicator and was so kind to allow our group to check in early! We can’t wait to return!

This property was great. It was even better than the description. The working farm at the bottom of the hill was loved by all, especially the toddlers. We would return again in a heartbeat.

Had a great five night stay at Mountain Creek Lodge. Tucked in on the mountain with amazing views. Private and quiet. Loved the great room and grand porch with rocking chairs. Want to return to this peaceful gem.

Beautiful farm in a serene setting
One of the nicest, most well appointed VRBO's we've stayed at, by far! The kitchen is well equipped, has modern appliances and LOTS of room. The view from the porch is nothing short of breathtaking....do NOT miss the sunrise, as it is absolutely stunning. Carol was awesome....responsive and accommodating. Can't say enough about this place. It was a wonderful stay!

Mountain cabin
Our family enjoyed our stay. Loved kids being able to run around and see the dogs, chickens, pigs, cows, etc.. The wrap around porch was a hit as well. We would sit out there and enjoy the Mountain View in the rocking chairs. House was well stocked with everything you need, just bring your clothes and food.

Another great visit!
We have been visiting Mountain Creek Lodge for years now, and, once again, we had a wonderful time. The owner, Carol, has anticipated practically any wish guests might have and provided the essentials, comforts, and charm that should make every stay most enjoyable. The property is conveniently located so that guests can easily join people in town or sit on the porch and enjoy the solitude and fantastic views. We cannot recommend MCL enough and can truthfully say that Carol is a host par excellence!

Amazing opportunity!!
My family came to this property to celebrate my mother’s birthday. We were blown away! This house and property had everything you could possibly need. The house was beautiful and well done. The property was a gem! Farm animals and views cannot be described in words or with photos. We will visit again in the future. My daughter will never forget this experience. She is only 5 and loved the gentle animals.

A must for nature enthusiasts
We enjoyed every moment of our experience, and the views were stunning. It was a calm and soothing experience, and my kids took great delight in feeding the cows some grass. The neighbors were friendly and hospitable, allowing my children to hold their chicken, which was thrilling for them. Carol was prompt in addressing any queries or concerns I had. And, the house was well-equipped with all the essentials. We had a wonderful weekend getaway! I would definitely recommend this place and return in the future. This getaway is a must for nature enthusiasts.

Country Magic!
Peaceful and magical. We fell in love immediately with the cows, mini pigs, goats, and absolutely beautiful Great Pyrenees at the bottom of the hill! Sitting outdoors on the porch is breathtaking! The owner is so kind and helpful. The little community there feels like "home". You are sure to enjoy!

Great time with family over Thanksgiving.
Spent 4 nights over the Thanksgiving Holiday. Plenty of room to handle the 8/9 adults. Favorite part was the large family room and kitchen. Plenty of room to hang out and drink cocktails around the fire or games around the kitchen table. Great view of Clayton Mountains. Short drive to Hiking trails and downtown Clayton. Bring carrots for the cows.

We had a blast! Mostly because of the company - 7 schoolmates from the 70's. But the accommodations were in creditable! I felt so at home! And if we forgot anything, we just had to open a cabinet and find it. So much room and VERY wheelchair accessible...thank you! Everything worked and great instructions! Great shops in Clayton and we drove over to Dillard and to Lake Rabun. Great 4 day weekend!

Great time
The property was just as nice as advertised. We had no surprises and that's not a small thing. The property managers went out of their way to make our stay a good one. Small details like instructions on how to use the TV, how to get online, etc. may seem insignificant but can really make all the difference. Next year when we need a place to stay, we will definitely try to book the Mountain Creek Lodge.

Girls Getaway
My friend and I needed a break from the city and all of the covid craziness. This was the perfect place to do that! The cabin is beautiful. Our favorite things about the place were the view of the cow pasture and rolling mountains while we ate breakfast and also the fireplace was fully stocked with firewood. The fireplace is a beautiful accent of the house. The location was amazing. It felt remote and private but was an easy drive to Clayton or the many near by parks. We will be back again.

Great Property!
Our family of 11 (2 adults, 9 kids between infant-age 14) enjoyed our stay on this property. The property manager was extremely responsive and helpful. There was plenty of space and beds for all, and the cabin was well stocked with the essentials (toilet paper, trash bags, laundry and dish detergent, kitchen supplies, etc.). We did Walmart curbside pickup for our groceries, which was extremely convenient with Walmart just 10 minutes down the road. The kids enjoyed petting the friendly animals (especially the pigs!) and watching the cows and wild turkeys out in the pasture. The sunrise view from the back porch is worth waking up early to see! Lots of activities within driving distance, including whitewater rafting on the Chatooga (ages 12+) less than 15 minutes down the road.
