This private bungalow has everything you need for a relaxing getaway! Five minutes from downtown Clayton, yet you feel like you are the only people around. Nestled in the side of Black Mountain and surrounded by bamboo forest it’s the perfect spot. Super cozy with a lovely screened porch and a perfect deck to have dinner on or just relax.

This is due to safety concerns and allergies

There is nothing not perfect about this rental, except that you have to leave. Its beautiful, serene, and comfy. The place is exactly as pictured, the host is above and beyond attentive to detail and responsive once there if any issues. No one will leave dissatisfied, all will not want to leave EVER, lol.

We loved our stay at The Secret Garden Bungalow! It was close to downtown but still felt like a getaway. Very clean, great screened in porch, and the fire pit was a great place to relax in the evenings. We will definitely return!

My husband and I loved our weekend getaway to Clayton. The bungalow was exactly as listed. It’s a very cozy and comfortable place. Loved the extra touches like the local artwork, the gas fireplace, and the porch swing! We would definitely stay here again.

Cute home off the beaten path. Super quiet but just outside of Clayton. We rented this to raft the chatooga and it was very convenient. The house has a great screened in porch and another outdoor space for dining. The kitchen and bathrooms were spotless and well appointed. The beds were comfortable and linens were clean. We cooked quite a bit and everything we needed was there, including the condiments in the refrigerator, coffee, tea and spices that were greatly appreciated. Communication was excellent. I would definitely rent this place again.

This property was adorable! We loved the location, decor and landscaping. Very private with a wonderful screened in porch. Beds were super comfortable. Close to restaurants and shopping. Close to highway but far enough away that there was zero traffic noise. Great place to relax and decompress in beautiful surroundings. My mom, husband and I had a great time on our trip to Dillard for a family wedding. We are so happy we stayed in Clayton at the Secret Garden house.

We were very fortunate the Secret Garden Bungalow was available on short notice as it books up quickly and I can definitely see why. It really is the perfect getaway spot! The house is just darling with so many beautiful touches throughout. Everything from the bedding to the shower pressure was wonderful. You can tell Laurie has thought of everything her guests may need as the house is stocked with cook wear, extra paper towels and toilet paper, laundry pods, extra towels and linen. You just really feel at home and besides picking up some groceries, everything else was supplied. The landscaping on the property makes the home feel very private yet is just minutes from downtown Clayton. The porches were wonderful to relax on while enjoying the day and the front porch swing is probably my favorite place in the home. We will definitely be back for another visit soon!

What a fantastic place! First and foremost, the cottage was SPOTLESS. Super clean! The beds were very comfortable. Good pressure in the showers. We really enjoyed the artwork touches, and especially appreciated the live plants in the house and the fantastic garden outside! It was definitely a huge treat! As many have mentioned, the screened porch you could sit on all day. We sat there. We sat at the table and chairs on the front patio in early evening. At night, the firepit with the adirondack chairs under the stars was great! Very convenient location, couple minutes drive to downtown Clayton, yet very quiet, beautiful neighborhood...your own little lush oasis. Laurie was super helpful and wonderful to communicate with. Loads of character in this charming cottage! A lot more fun than some of the sterile places. An A+!!

We came here to celebrate our Wedding Anniversary. The cottage was immaculate, comfortable, and beautifully decorated. During the stay, we sat on the screened-in porch and outside in the garden. I loved identifying the assortment of plants blooming in the garden and watching the birds in the bird bath. We ate several times in downtown Clayton which is only 5 minutes away. The neighborhood is quiet too. We slept like babies on the very comfortable bed in the master bedroom. For entertainment, we hiked at Black Rock Mountain State Park and Tallulah Gorge State Park, both only about 15 minutes away. We also drove out to Hardman Farm Historic Site which has a Mississippian Indian Mound over 1000 years old. It's near Helen, GA so we ate lunch in the Bavarian-style town. The host checked-in by a VRBO message to make sure we didn't have any questions. We would definitely rent this cottage again!

Conveniently located close to everything in Clayton. We used this as a home base and also went to Dillard, Highlands and Lake Rabun.

This bungalow may be my favorite rental ever. It was beautiful inside and out and definitely the cleanest. The garden and outdoor areas were delightful; my sister and I could have lived on the screen porch. Kitchen was very well equipped. The only thing that bothered me (a little) was there were no shades or blinds on the bedroom windows, only sheer curtains. It was just a little disconcerting for us when we were changing, but that may be just us. Otherwise, it was a wonderful weekend. (Oh yea, a hot tub in the back would really make this place perfect!)

You wouldn't know there were houses close by, as the landscaping was exquisite and the neighborhood extremely quiet.

We enjoyed our stay here, as it was really a great location, clean and comfy. The outside areas were really wonderful. Lots of blankets, for the inside and a wonderful swing on the enclosed porch, fire pit with 4 chairs, a cute eating area outside as well.
I would suggest you bring any additional amenities you would need, as the host did not provide a lot of the extras, like extra coffee, shampoo, conditioner, ironing board and extra toilet paper.

The place was cute as can be. My wife would have loved to have bought it. Very close to the downtown shops and restaurants.

serene and peaceful
this serene, peaceful place was just what we needed. All the flowers and plants along with the lovely screened in porch is what attracted us to this place and we were not disappointed! We'd go again in a heartbeat and stay for a week. It's close to town but far enough away for a quiet little spot where you can enjoy sitting on screened in porch or a deck with nature all around you.

Beautiful town, wonderful location.
Overall, we had a very nice stay. The property is clean and comfortable. The property manager did her best to see to it that we were well accomodated. VRBO apparently dropped the ball in seeing to it that we had all the check in info we needed upon our arrival. The property manager picked up where they left off and everything went smoothly after I contacted her directly. You won't be disappointed with this little gem of a house or with the town of Clayton, GA. I had no idea it was such a lovely area. I would certainly go back again and stay at this lovely home.
