My family stayed in this cabin over Thanksgiving break and it had everything we could hope for. Plenty of room, a large, fully stocked kitchen, and farm animals to pet and play with!

This was one of the most private and beautiful cabins I've had the pleasure to stay at. The home was cozy and the view was breathtaking. An added bonus was the farms animals located near the property, which me and my guests all had the pleasure of petting. Would definitely stay again!

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.

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.

This property was great. It was even better than the description. The working farm at the bottom of the hill was loved by all, especially the toddlers. We would return again in a heartbeat.

Had a great five night stay at Mountain Creek Lodge. Tucked in on the mountain with amazing views. Private and quiet. Loved the great room and grand porch with rocking chairs. Want to return to this peaceful gem.

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.

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!

Our family enjoyed our stay. Loved kids being able to run around and see the dogs, chickens, pigs, cows, etc.. The wrap around porch was a hit as well. We would sit out there and enjoy the Mountain View in the rocking chairs. House was well stocked with everything you need, just bring your clothes and food.

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!

We have been visiting Mountain Creek Lodge for years now, and, once again, we had a wonderful time. The owner, Carol, has anticipated practically any wish guests might have and provided the essentials, comforts, and charm that should make every stay most enjoyable. The property is conveniently located so that guests can easily join people in town or sit on the porch and enjoy the solitude and fantastic views. We cannot recommend MCL enough and can truthfully say that Carol is a host par excellence!

My husband and I were looking for a private get away not too far from our house. It was perfect. Clean, all we needed to cook and everything we needed. Great space inside and out. We will come again

Peaceful and magical. We fell in love immediately with the cows, mini pigs, goats, and absolutely beautiful Great Pyrenees at the bottom of the hill! Sitting outdoors on the porch is breathtaking! The owner is so kind and helpful. The little community there feels like "home". You are sure to enjoy!
