The home is historical and beautiful. Nicely appointed with almost anything you could possibly need in the kitchen and bathrooms. One block from the river and train tracks. Many things to do in the area. We absolutely loved our long weekend in Clayton.
Beautiful building, clean and quiet. Lovely view. Nice little town, close to nice trout streams. Owner not great with communication, states there is internet but was not able to get roku to work at all so no TV at all to watch football games at night 😟 not sure if it was just the roku but my internet would not work on my phone once I hooked up to their wifi. Contacted host with no reply. Very beautiful home and very clean tho. Easy access just bring a deck of cards!

Fun weekend getaway!
My gal pals and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the historically charming, yet super comfortable, Clayton Bank! Plenty of room for all of us to sleep and nice open areas for games & late night chats plus a large kitchen so we didn't have to eat out. The train does come through close several times a night, but by the 2nd night you get more used to it. The dishwasher was the only thing not working & communicating with the owner was not very easy, but we'd definitely stay again.
The House itself is quite large and spacious.
It’s well appointed, with everything you might need.
It was a struggle to get the key to work to get in the sliding door entry… Guessing that it was a new key and just needed a little smooth.
The remotes for the TVs had no batteries or dead batteries, unfortunately.
Overall we love the location! perfect walking distance to the Lighthouse.
We really enjoyed the open layout & multiple beds to have our annual girls weekend. The large kitchen was nice to not have to eat out every meal. Couldn't find the toaster though, and the filtered water spigot at the sink was leaking into the sink with little water pressure to actually fill a cup.

They canceled the reservation the day we needed to check in
We loved our stay - very spacious and kitchen was fully furnished. Everything we needed for our stay was available. Not a single issue with anything. We have a large family gathering 2x a year in Clayton and will definitely consider this home again.
