Top Clay Hotel Reviews

Baymont by Wyndham Madisonville

8/10 Good

"You get what you pay for and this place was cheap. Not bad but not great."

Littlefield Farmhouse in Princeton, KY

10/10 Excellent

"This place was so clean and peaceful. The hosts were great and provided so much."

Rustic 1 bedroom/1 bath home w/loft that sleeps 8. Near Shawnee National Forest

10/10 Excellent

"Cabin was very clean. There was a basket of treats welcoming us when we entered the cabin, very thoughtful by the host. Cabin was nice and cool although it was quite hot outside-in the 90's. Beds were comfortable, our daughter enjoyed the loft. I liked the early mornings sitting on the back porch drinking my coffee, the back porch even has ceiling fans to keep one cool. It was way to hot(for us) to use the fire pit. All we had to supply was food, pots and pans, dishes and utensils, a good variety of spices, dish soap and laundry soap , and more, came supplied with the cabin. We liked the location, the small town close by had most of what we needed , but a larger town is but a 30-35 minute drive. The cabin exceeded our expectations. If we were to go back to that area we would check first to see if this cabin was available."

"Thank you for allowing us to stay at your beautiful cabin. It was the perfect place to celebrate our 23rd wedding anniversary and spend some much-needed time together.

We especially love the privacy and the opportunity to simply enjoy the quiet surroundings. Thank you again for sharing your beautiful getaway with us and helping us make our anniversary so special. Also shout out to Steve for his help with our tire. Super nice host."
