Holiday rentals with a fireplace in Clayton

We had a wonderful time at this lake house. Plenty of room for my family of five to spread out and relax and such a beautiful setting. The house had everything we needed to just relax and spend time there. The kitchen was very well stocked with equipment. My sons loved fishing in the lake and we all enjoyed sitting around to bonfire at night. It was wonderful. Next time we will stay for longer!

Good communication and awesome view

Very clean, well thought out with kids games, arcades, double bunk beds and a separate space for entertainment. We loved the location and neighborhood was quiet and peaceful. 5 minutes to downtown shopping and restaurants. Clayton is a great town. Our family of 6 will be back.

Great cabin super close to downtown Highlands. Looks just as great as the photos, perfectly clean, very nicely appointed and furnished. This was a much better situation for our family over a local hotel. We would definitely come back!!

This was the best rental that my family has ever booked. My husband was very impressed with the decor and the cleanliness of the rental. I contacted the host to ask for an extra day after finding out that our games had been scheduled for a later time. The host responded within minutes and fortunately the place was available for another night. We will most definitely stay here again.

Beautiful, amazing and perfect for a getaway with friends or romantic stay. Architecturally stunning. Great example of mid-century modern with lots of cut outs, glass and details. Not for the mobile challenged (stairs and a bit of a walk from the car parking) and lots of glass (you give some privacy with other house mates) so if that is not your thing, I wouldn't recommend it. Very quiet except when you open the doors to the waterfall. First day, some water cascading over but after a rain it was all white and mesmerizing. Beds are small but very comfortable. I was able to cook some great meals and they had a lot of items you don't always have, like aluminum foil. Took the hosts recommendation for a vineyard (distillery was the highlight) and a stop in Toccoa, GA. Just book it and enjoy.

Usually when you stay at an Airbnb, you get what you pay for but here we got a very unexpected and never before experienced stay. Every single detail was so thoughtful and so generous, and it made our time an absolute blessing. Joan and clay are such a joy to talk with and they have gone far above and beyond any other place to make sure we had everything we could want or need. Truly felt like they were family and enjoyed our stay so so much. Will be back soon.

A great space to relax! Thoughtful and well-apportioned house. Modern appliances, nice aesthetic. Can tell Nick put a lot of time into creating it. Felt like a vacation house (in the best way). Had everything we needed and more. Great for couples seeking some time away from the hustle-bustle. Equally good for a small family gathering. The porch is amazing, the views spectacular. Would definitely return!

Would definitely recommend this cabin. Super convenient to Helen, easy access, not too far up the slopes, and easy exit with the lower driveway. This is not a luxury cabin. It is compact and enough for a couple and a pet. But the value for the stay is spot on, Roy is super awesome, and I would stay again.

Don and the rental were fantastic. I can only wish that every Air BnB was done this well. Water on every table. The bathroom had everything you might have forgotten. The fridge had soda and water in it. Even had a Smores setup for the firepit outside. I will be back here regularly and Don's place will always be my first choice. Dons hospitality was world class. It is very hard to find genuine hospitality and Don hit it off the mountain.

This cute little downstairs apartment was perfect for our anniversary trip! It’s a great space for two people to relax and enjoy each other’s company. We spent our mornings on the porch swing drinking coffee and at night would head into town to eat at the recommended restaurants. The place was cute, homey, and had amazing views of the mountains!

Loved Russ’s place cozy, private and close to everything. Russ was very friendly ma responsive. I would stay here again for sure .

The place was honestly a bit smaller than I had expected, but it was my first time ever renting Airbnb so I didn’t even read descriptions before renting, so that’s on me. Everything felt pretty comfy and my favorite part was definitely the sound of the river at night, gives an extremely peaceful vibe to the stay. It’s also a great location to find waterfalls for those wanting to hike. Excellent location, would definitely rent again.

It's a great place. Clean on the inside. you can leave and walk anywhere you want it's close to everything. l would stay there again.

I enjoyed my stay. The unit is a 5 minute walk to the heart of Helen. Quiet in the evenings. They provide a book with treat information. Parking is right in front of the unit. Would definitely stay here again for sure

I have lived in a lot of places over the past year while traveling for school, and this was the best of the bunch. Everything was great, including a clean comfortable space, available toiletries, efficient appliances, simple check in and out, amazing 10/10 mountain view.

Great place, good management, and reasonable prices. Barely interacted with the owners, which was ideal for my group. You are trusted to check in and out without supervision. The location is beautiful, and there are PLENTY of beds.

We highly enjoyed our stay. The kitchen is well stocked for cooking. We enjoyed the covered screened in porch, as it rained for much of our stay. The property is beautiful and in a great location. Damien is helpful and friendly and responded quickly. Overall this is one of the nicer Air Bnb's we have stayed in. We will definitely be back and stay at one of his properties in the future.

This place is a great stay for anyone looking for a place centrally located in the Cashiers/Sapphire area. Easy and scenic walk around lake Fairfield. Great Mountain View from back patio. Easy access to Sapphire National Golf Course. The place is very spacious with room to spread out for the whole family and it is equipped very well. Roland is responsive and checked in on us periodically to make sure everything was well. I highly recommend staying here!

We really enjoyed our weekend! The house was beautiful, spacious, clean and had everything we needed. And the view was breathtaking! It was the perfect place for our whole family to gather and celebrate our son’s graduation from WCU!

Eric was always quick to respond to my questions. Was willing to give genuine suggestions. Was very easy to talk to. Loved the location and wouldn’t hesitate to stay again.

My family enjoyed a long, relaxing weekend at Craig's Encore at the end of Lake Nantahala. We have stayed in many places, and this home was truly exceptional with every detail considered. We enjoyed watching Lake Nantahala change throughout the day, paddled in the kayaks, swam, soaked in the hot tub, relaxed and had fun outings renting a boat one day and tubing down the Nantahala River the next. It was truly memorable, and the only drawback was the long drive in over gravel, but that's what makes it so peaceful and remote. The lake was never busy and such a big change from so many crowded and touristed spots. We hope we made a good impression and will be welcomed back. This is truly a loved and cherished family home, and we appreciate Craig sharing it with us.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolute Magic at Mountain Sol! Mountain Sol is pure mountain magic! We booked this incredible home to bring together cousins, siblings, and grandparents for a multi-generational family gathering, and it exceeded every expectation. From the moment we arrived at the top of the mountain, we were blown away by the panoramic 360-degree views—sunrises with coffee, sunsets with wine, and stargazing by the fire left us speechless. The house itself is very spacious, beautifully designed, and thoughtfully equipped for large groups. Everyone had room to spread out and relax, but the cozy common areas made it easy to come together for meals, games, and late-night laughter. The kitchen had everything we needed (hello coffee bar!!!), and the outdoor spaces—porches, decks, and even a breathtaking fire pit spot—were perfect for soaking in the natural beauty. Bryson City was a joy to explore: charming shops, great restaurants, and easy access to hiking, rafting, and the Great Smoky Mount

We had 14 women for a weekend getaway. The property is just as the photos indicate., stunning! The river is a distance away but you can hear the rush of the river clearly. The walk down to the river is not “ a walk in the park” it is a nicely cleared path down a mountainside with ropes at the steepest parts with a nice layer of gravel which helps. They provide walking sticks for 10, and I found the one I used to be very helpful ( 64 y.o.) The kitchen was well equipped and made it easy to prepare for 14 people. The living areas were very comfortable and the dining area was spectacular. The sofa beds were, well sofa beds. I probably wouldn’t plan for us to use those for adults again, but that is literally the only “con” I could find because everything else was just perfect!
