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.

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!

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.

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.

About the host

Host profile image
I am a retired business owner who loves the mountains and also has a home near my children and grandchildren in West Palm Beach, FL.

Why they chose this property

My family developed the nearby Mountain Creek Estates subdivision and saved a wonderful 10-acre lot for ourselves. It borders a rushing creek and has fabulous views. All thoughts of building on our lot went out the window when we discovered this property which was being sold by Coca Cola heiress Frances Woodruff - known locally as 'Mrs. Tut.' As a part-time realtor, I see a lot of properties, but the views from the porch of this cabin and the tranquility of the farm cannot be beat!

What makes this property unique

This property high up on Tut's Mountain was formerly the petting zoo of Coca Cola heiress Frances Woodruff. Remnants of the bear den, eagles' lair and other artifacts still can be seen. Neighbors graze their cows, goats, pigs and chickens in our pastures. The Town of Clayton has the feel of stepping into a Norman Rockwell painting to a quieter, gentler time when people had time to chat & share recipes in shops. We are within 4 miles of a variety of restaurants, shops, grocery stores, Home Depot and a Walmart Super Center.
