Lovely, idyllic cabin and location

We loved our weekend here. Cabin and grounds are beautiful. I’m a big fan of real fireplaces and bathtubs, and this cabin delivered beautiful versions of both. The kitchen is not ideal for serious cooking and it’s 1 bedroom and 1 bathroom, so probably not ideal for any more than a couple people, but worked out perfect for us. And Clayton is a lovely little town.

SO glad you enjoyed your stay. We too love the coziness and intimacy real fireplaces and bathtubs create. This home is ideal for two people, it is truly equipped as a couples retreat and has notoriously been titled by our guest as the "Honeymoon Cottage" :) Please know you are most welcome back anytime!

Relaxing Mountain Retreat

The Hope House is a spectacular mountain retreat. Everything you need for a luxurious stay is included. The grounds of Victory Ranch are immaculately maintained. Sitting on the porch and enjoy the quiet and beautiful surroundings was one of the favorite parts of our day. We can not wait to return to this amazing location.

Wonderful Escape

A windy road leading to serenity in the valley. This place was a great escape for my family and I. The house was very clean, well maintained, quiet, and just as described in post. The quiet is great. My daughter loved the deer, turtles, and fireflies that were on property. We will be back sooner than later, as we fell in love with the area. Thanks!

Weekend Getaway

It was beautiful inside and out - just like the pictures! We did not have cell phone reception while on the property or going around the curvy mountain roads but that just made it an even quieter weekend. Very relaxing. We did have service on main roads and in downtown Clayton and Dillard area. Enjoyed pizza at Fortify Pi and had delicious meal at BlueHound BBQ in Dillard. It all made for a wonderful birthday celebration!

Beautiful cottage on a picturesque property.

My daughter and I loved our getaway at this charming, beautifully decorated cabin. It was perfect. One thing I would recommend is to note that we had zero cell service when trying to get into the property, so could not look up the instructions or directions on line for the gate code, etc. we recommend instructions to print the directions and take a screen shot of the codes to get in. We loved this property and can’t wait to come back!

Beautiful property!!!

I’m a licensed general contractor and came in town to visit some clients and decided to bring my wife along and share with her this amazing place. Photos and reviews do not do this justice. These homes are extremely well manicured with a lot of attention to detail in the design, construction, and decor. We really enjoyed the large bathroom and the front porch as it put us both in a complete state of relaxation. The property is extremely tranquil and offers an amazing feeling of being away from anything with extremely luxury amenities that are sure to make you feel at home. We will definitely be coming back to stay in one of the other homes.

Beautiful property

From the moment we drove through the private gates we were amazed by the beauty of the rolling property, stream running through it, vines and a fire pit at the top of the hill. We felt like we were in another country. We forget how beautiful our own backyard is. We followed up the hill to our house and passed by the a beautiful natural garden. The stone house was even more impressive then the pictures. The finishes and furnishings were high quality and it felt like home. Every detail to the inspirational decorations around the home spoke to our family and made our trip very special. My wife and daughter enjoyed the tubs after a long hike one day. Their laughter filled the house as they bonded together. We are grateful to the host for opening up such an incredible property. One last point I would like to make is the location of this house to downtown Clayton and the best hiking in the country was perfect. Everything felt close.

Peace and Quiet

The cottage had everything one needs to make it through a weekend get-away. The entire property is well maintained and I would not mind returning again. The surrounding area has plenty of things to do to fill up a day of excursions. We hiked, shopped in the local stores, and ate out to get a taste of the area.

Excellent Property & Gracious Hosts

Stayed here for a long weekend to escape the city and celebrate my fiancé’s birthday. The property was so peaceful and spacious. We had a wonderful time enjoying the early autumn weather and walking the grounds in the mornings with our coffee. The house was incredibly tidy, comfortable and so well-equipped. The hosts have truly thought of everything. We experienced excellent communication leading up to and during our stay. We could not have asked for more. Can’t wait to return!!

Beautiful Surroundings, Convenient Location

If you are looking for peace and quiet or a location from which to visit local attractions, Hope House is a great alternative. It does need a bit of TLC and I'm hopeful that this will be taken care of soon since this house is a real treasure. Currently the garden is not in shape to be used, but the front porch is wonderful to relax on and there's a terrific swing. There is 1 bedroom with 2 queen beds so make sure that's acceptable for your situation. It was a great place to relax.

Hi Natalie- as per our conversation all of the items that you noted have been addressed and corrected immediately. We appreciate you having taken the time to address the above-mentioned and are grateful for your meticulousness. In regards to the garden, it is a seasonal wild garden that changes constantly with blooms that are in season. In some seasons it is more lush, in others it is much drier given the weather of the particular season. The pictures on-line of the garden reflect the Spiring. We have had our landscapers tend to it with extra care since you're note, however I would in no way say that it was/is not able to be used in terms of walking or sitting on the stone deck or utilizing the stone bbq. All of those activities most certainly have been and are still acceptable and usable and many of our guests have utilized them all on various occasions. I am sorry that the garden was not to your standards however am glad that your overall stay was a pleasant and relaxing one.

Perfection!

Had a girls’ trip. Spent 2 nights. The place we stayed was very important because we wanted to stay home, visit and chat - coffee on the porch, cocktails on the porch, supper on the patio, nightcap on the porch. This property was perfect for that. We ate lunch in Clayton on Day 1 and hiked Day 2 and Day 3. We ate all our other meals at home since we planned our meals for simplicity and using summer’s bounty. The home was well-equipped and so fun to experience, because of the luxurious touches, the quality of the home and all of the finishes that completed the sense of place. The property is large, quiet and pastoral with so many places to walk, explore and relax. Since we didn’t even “do” Clayton, we’re planning to come back. Next time for 4 nights!
