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 parkingâstroll 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. Youâre minutes to waterfall hikes, scenic overlooks in Black Rock Mountain State Park, lakes, and whitewater raftingâcome back, kick off your boots, and exhale.
