Our beautiful vacation rentals are sure to give you a relaxing getaway that will leave you feeling recharged and renewed. Hi, I'm Frank Lastra, Owner/Innkeeper of Mountain Aire Cottages & Inn. Check out the photos - all the interior remodeling I did by hand myself! If you're tired of the impersonal chain style hotels and want to experience lodging the way it used to be, I hope you will consider a stay with me.
I operate the property by myself, and try my best to provide comfortable & friendly lodging for my guests. I'd like you to think of Mountain Aire as your home away from home! I'll do my best to make you feel comfortable, at ease, and ready to enjoy your time here in our beautiful mountains.

Immerse yourself in the calm of the Smoky Mountain's natural lakes in this fisherman-themed retreat. May be connected to the adjoining Mountain Lodge Room to form a suite if you need more space. Having come through Clayton at least one each year for several years, we had gotten used to staying at one of the motels along US Highway 23/441.
Our beautiful vacation rentals are sure to give you a relaxing getaway that will leave you feeling recharged and renewed. My husband and I spent 6 nights at this wonderful place. We rented a car and explored the beautiful mountains and waterfalls that surround the area. Our accommodations were spotless, quiet and best of all we enjoyed Midnight, the cat!

The Mountain Aire Cottages and Inn is a wonderfully relaxing and beautiful place with Frank the consummate host! We stayed there for one night in mid-November, 2021 when in Clayton to look over some old family property, and Frank was kind enough to suggest places for dinner and all manner of other help. What a lovely and scrupulously clean Inn in a charming town in northern Georgia! We plan to make it our base of family operations in the coming years…..highly recommend it. Peggy Lyon McCoy

This place is just adorable. I have stayed here multiple times and will be back again. I really love that the rating on health inspection is an "A". That's what I look for 1st. This place is super clean and the host is amazing!! I prefer staying here than at a resort because it's a little slice of country and feels like coming home.

We would give this review 100 stars.
We wanted to thank Frank for accommodating us on short notice. We called on April 7, 2021 for the 9th. We needed a long weekend from the hustle and bustle of the world
The cottage was awesome. We had a two bedrooms. We picked the bedroom that was sweeeet. There was a king-size bed, and right next to it. What more can you ask for? The theme in our cottage decor made us relax and feel at home. The cabin was well maintained. You can walk downtown. The sidewalk was lined with cherry trees. Also, there are many attractions in the area.

What a wonderful jewel. Our cottage was charming and homey and couldn't have been cozier. I was impressed with the cleanliness and the amazing shower. We truly felt like personal guests. The signs of the door are welcoming and made
me smile. A place like this is a rarity these days. Hope to visit again.

This is a delightful break from the cookie cutter motel room chains. The rooms in the small motel section have mini kitchenettes with real cups,dishes,glasses and the rooms are nicely decorated and always spotlessly clean. There are rockers to enjoy the porch area and a nice cat (midnight) who likes to claim a space. The owner is on site and greets guests personally. Our stays there have always been peaceful and enjoyable and the personal level of service is much appreciated in these difficult times for older travelers.

This place was recommended by another nearby Inn as they were already full for our dates. Well, I would say it worked out perfectly because we could not have been happier with this place and Frank, the owner/operator. He has done great work restoring the property and is very hospitable! The place is very clean and the linens, towels, and bedding are all very comfortable. The location is very convenient. We really enjoyed our stay and highly recommend!
