About this house rental
Tucked along a gentle creek with views toward Black Rock Mountain State Park, this fully renovated 1950s cabin is an easy, romantic base for food hopping, boutique browsing, and blue-sky adventures.
Date-night made easy (walk everywhere). Forget parking—stroll 5 minutes to downtown Clayton for chef-driven dinners, wine flights, and nightcaps, then wander home to the hot tub.
Slow mornings, soft evenings. Start with coffee on the creekside patio, linger on the back porch, then end the day soaking under the stars while the water rolls by.
Adventure by day. You’re minutes to waterfall hikes, scenic overlooks in Black Rock Mountain State Park, lakes, and whitewater rafting—come back, kick off your boots, and exhale.

10 / 10Outstanding·May 2026
This adorable creekside cottage is in the perfect location. Very private and serene but only a short walk to restaurants and shops. Heather puts a lot of thought into all the little extras to make your stay even better. Have already booked this place for our anniversary trip next year.
10 / 10Outstanding·Mar 2026
The house was clean, warm, and welcoming. It is in a very private setting in the woods, but a very easy walk to local stores, dollar tree, or a nice local brewery. We had a great time sitting by the fire and in the hot tub with the sound of the creek behind us, the kids even enjoyed a little swim. The creek is only about a foot at the deepest, so it was a short swim, but they enjoyed it!

Our host was excellent, very responsive. The property was great, will consider rebooking here again.

The house was thoughtfully appointed. The hot tub, hammock, fire pit and creek created a dream environment. We loved the location, being able to walk to downtown so easily. The host was very responsive. House was clean. This place is a treasure not to be overlooked! Book it!
