About this cabin rental
Want to enjoy the beauty of the mountains but concerned about steep driveways and winding single lane roads with no shoulder? Then this is the place for you.
* Sky Valley is easy access with plenty to do and well-maintained roads.
* It is Georgia’s highest city!
* Our home is at 3,140 elevation.
* We also have street level parking so you can get into the home easily. No steep walkways or stairs in the living space (there are stairs to the laundry room)
* If it snows, Sky Valley gets the roads cleared quickly.
* And in case of power outage, we have a full house generator to keep you going.
So come enjoy the mountains. The beautiful views and comfortable climate provide all you need to relax and get away from the stresses of life. We hope you also find it provides you an opportunity to unwind and enjoy nature in the peace and quiet - but not complete silence. The rushing sound of Mud Creek falls, less than a mile away, enhances your morning cup of coffee on the back porch.
Mountain Laurel Hideaway is single-level home with a ramp that leads from the street to the front door. When you arrive, you will be able to park right at the front door and unload onto our spacious front porch. Then, you can park on the driveway that can accommodate about three vehicles. Take the garden pathway from the driveway up to the front porch. The front porch is appointed with a seating group, fire table, and oversized gas grill. In the evening, overhead string lights turn on to provide just enough light to enjoy late night conversation.
Our home is a great opportunity for families to come together and spend quality time. There are three bedrooms (king, king, queen) and two full bathrooms. Each bathroom has a separate tiled shower and is equipped with oversized comfortable towels. Both bathrooms have built in heaters to keep you extra toasty when you exit the shower or bath. One bathroom has a jetted tub with a beautiful view of Alex mountain. While the other bathroom includes accessibility features such as grab bars at the sink, toilet, and inside the shower as well as a shower seat.
The family room has plenty of seating and a smart television so that you can view your favorite streaming stations. We provide basic cable stations via SlingTV, and with super fast WiFi internet, you are welcome to stream any of your services. With lots of windows and sky lights, you can enjoy the mountain view from any room with plenty of natural light.
From the family room, enter the screened back porch where you can enjoy the mountain views and sounds of nature. We have comfortable seating and I love sitting out there with a book or magazine. Or take a nap in our new hammock.
Step outside the front door and take a short hike down to Mud Creek falls. If you want to spend some time indoors, there is a selection of board games, card games, and puzzles to provide the opportunity for family time. Or play a game of chess/checkers on our game table. Pickleball equipment is available for your use at the resort's pickleball courts. And soft, cozy blankets are there for you to curl up with a movie or book.

Just south of Clayton is Lake Rabun, Lake Burton, and Tallulah gorge where you can enjoy many different water sports including kayaking, boating, skiing and fishing.
The well-appointed kitchen has a stove, oven, microwave, dishwasher and refrigerator; along with a good variety of small appliances such as an electric kettle, waffle maker, panini maker, Keurig with frother, coffee and espresso maker, and griddle. We recently added a countertop ice cream maker so you can enjoy homemade ice cream in less than 25 min! The butcher block bar has 4 stools and there is a dining table with 6 chairs.
Do you love coffee? Enjoy a cup or latte or cappuccino made at our coffee bar. Or use one of the teapots to brew a delicious cuppa that you can enjoy on the back porch while you admire the view and listen to the sounds of Mud Creek falls.
There is a laundry room with both washer and dryer available for your use. There are stairs to the laundry room.
We are dog-friendly and are happy to accommodate up to two small dogs (less than 25 pounds each) for an additional fee. If you choose to bring your dog, they can also enjoy a little space to run around on the fenced front porch and side garden. Please bring a kennel to secure them when you leave the house. Even the most well-trained can feel insecure when left alone in an unfamiliar place.
While our home is not ADA compliant, there are some features that make the home more accessible to those who require a walker or similar equipment. There are no stairs from the street to enter the house. All bedrooms, bathrooms, and common areas are on the main floor. Additionally, the second bathroom has grab bars near the toilet, sink, and in the shower. The shower also has a chair. The only stairs in the home lead down to the laundry room.
Coming in winter? Enjoy the warmth and atmosphere provided by the Franklin stove. And don’t worry about potential power outages. We have a whole house generator to make sure your vacation is not interrupted.
We look forward to having you stay and hope you enjoy your time in Sky Valley as much as we do. We are available to make recommendations, arrange reservations, and answer any questions you may have about the area and things to do. We want you to have a great time.

This was our second stay at this lovely property, and we had a great experience. The host (Bruce) is super communicative and helpful. The home has been spotless both times. The hosts had decorated for the holidays and lights were on a timer so that when we came back in the evening, everything was lit up and cozy. The wood-burning stove was ready to use and cut wood was stacked right beside it. What we love most (as an older couple who need and enjoy our quiet, rest time) is that the furniture in this home is real, comfortable furniture like you would have in your own home. The mattresses are thick and comfy, too. We can relax here, like we do at home. Both times we stayed here, we arrived to find a thoughtful basket of goodies (snacks, bottles of water, etc) that included treats for our dogs. I could go on and on about the many thoughtful touches (umbrellas by the door, charging ports by the bed, etc). We travel as often as we can and have stayed in dozens of rentals, and while many have been fine, none of them have met every need AND provided extras we don’t even expect like this place does. My wife and I are very familiar with Sky Valley. She actually grew up there. (The house she grew up in is about a mile from this property.) I can tell you that the view from this house, the fact that you can hear the nearby waterfall when you’re outside, and the ease of access to the property, makes it an ideal location in Sky Valley.

Mountain Laurel Hideaway is a wonderful and comfortable home in a beautiful location. During our two-week stay we spent many hours sitting in the sunroom among the tree tops enjoying the fall views and colors. We were delighted with the thoughtful extras in the kitchen and bathrooms. Communication with the host was excellent, always prompt and helpful. I imagine spring is a beautiful time to visit as well since the front of the property is lined with mountain laurel and hydrangeas. Hopefully, we can return to Mountain Laurel Hideaway one day for another relaxing vacation.
