Mountain Creek Lodge
AWESOME!!!! Beautiful view, beautiful sunrise, spacious yet cozy home. Carol was quick to answer questions and friendly to outreach. The Perrys (who manage the animals) are the Salt of the Earth people. Loved talking with them. Access to the home was easy and fun to drive. This was our 3rd trip to Rabun County and the best location yet. thank you.

Beautiful Property
The house and location itself is gorgeous! Plenty of room. Wonderful porch and views. The farm animals are fun to watch too. We did check in to an uncleaned house. None of the surfaces had been wiped and all of the bed sheets had to be changed bc they had the wrong size sheets on them. Full on King, etc. Our host Carol was very responsive and immediately offered a sincere apology and partial refund. She contacted the cleaning company and offered to have them come the following morning, but we chose to clean what we could ourselves since we already had all of our stuff there. I hate this happened for us and for our host bc I know this is not typical in reading the reviews. Overall we had a great weekend and were very happy with the place aside from the cleanliness. Would definitely recommend this property for the views alone!

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!

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.

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.

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!

A little piece of Heaven!
Wow. Where do I begin? This cabin/ property/owner is a 10/10. Carol provided the best communication. Instructions made the home so easy to find. We absolutely loved staying here. The moment my family and I stepped into the home we said " we feel right at home". It is very quiet and private. Every day we walked down to say hello to the animals. I just felt such at peace staying here. We actually wanted to extend our stay but decided we will just plan another trip. We met a lovely neighbor named Lori. She brought us fresh eggs straight from the farm. I have rented over 25 cabins, and this was by far the BEST. It makes you feel like you are experiencing the show Yellowstone. Fresh air, Mountain views, animals, a sense of peace. I can't wait to return. Thank you so much Carol for allowing us to stay at your beautiful home.

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.

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!

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.

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.
