Adequate accommodations
The cabin is pretty good, about what I would expect for the price point. It is spacious and clean enough (not spotless). It worked just fine for a family of four hiking enthusiasts. However, it would NOT sleep 8 people. The living room furniture is terribly uncomfortable. The master bed needs a platform or box spring to raise it to a reasonable height. I did appreciate being able to do laundry, and the kitchen had everything needed for basic meals. The location and woodland setting are fantastic. As I mentioned, we travel quite a bit and knew not to expect luxury here, so we were in no way disappointed. The only thing I would consider a complaint is the inaccurate listing i.e. beds, and the fact that the water heater makes very loud noises which might need some attention.

Wonderful host, place need some tlc tho. Cleaning was below expectations. Don't visit during a snowstorm, if you want to adventure around because people are not used to it and most businesses close down even with just 2 inches of snow. Only few food stores will open.

Comfortable Stay
The cabin was mostly as described, however it does not sleep 8; it sleeps 6. The property was secluded and a great place for the kids and our dogs to play. Very close to many great waterfall hikes. The kitchen was a little light on utensils, it was a good thing my daughters came up a day after us so they could bring supplies from home.

Nice cabin in the woods
We really enjoyed our stay. The place is very secluded and private. It is a little dated but served us well. The bed was very comfortable but a little low making it difficult for older folks to get in and out of. After some problems getting the heat turned on, everything was just great. We were able to stream of TV shows from our phone so we didn't miss any of our favorite shows. Highly recommend De Soto State Park and Little River Canyon National Preserve as places to explore. Would defiantly stay again.

Another Awesome Stay
We stay in the area when visiting family and this is our go-to place when it's available! We come back for a reason! It's a great location with a lot of open space. There's no seeing the neighbors from here. It's easy to miss the drive if you're going for the first time so just look for the electrical wires crossing the road above! The cabin is lovely with a great kitchen/eating area, as well as good Internet and television service through the ROKU TV that you may be able to log into your own TV service through (we have Youtube TV so it was no problem). Thanks for another awesome stay!

Cabin Getaway
This was a great home base to visit all the parks in the area. We loved coming back here after a day of exploring and still being surrounded by nature in the adorable cabin. The layout was perfect with us downstairs and my teenage son and his friend in the room upstairs in the loft. Two bathrooms was a olus! Can’t wait to stay here again.

Excellent location. Great cabin. The weather felt fallish is a constant breeze so we enjoyed coffee and wine on the back porch. My sweetheart got up early enough to see three deer in the yard. All I saw was squirrels up in the tree shredding hickernuts. That’s hickory nuts for you city folk. We had our small fur babies with us and barked every time they heard something during the night. So obviously plenty of wildlife came out in the night. Great peace and quiet. Can’t wait to visit again. Only suggestion is clear a few limbs so the beautiful sunset can be seen in the summer too.

This cabin is awesome! It doesn’t have a sign out front and it has a hidden drive way so at first we didn’t know if we were in the right place but the picture lets you know it’s right when you see the cabin. It was great for the price and we had great time. The owners have all kinds of information about the surrounding area attractions. The Hatter Cafe is a must visit! The cabin secludes in the woods and has fabulous views!

Disappointed with Property
The cabin was dirty with dust and cobwebs, the screening on the back porch was all torn up. The oven was filthy on the inside both upper and lower ovens. The gas stove had a missing control knob, the dishwasher door was floppy and fell to the floor when opened. The downstairs bedroom bed only had a very thin top mattress on a board within the bed frame causing a sleepless night. My granddaughter had the upstairs bedroom leaving us the downstairs bedroom. We reserved and paid for this property for a two night stay however we left after one night due to the conditions and we were uncomfortable. I do hope the owners read this review and take steps to correct the issues I listed.

Weekend getaway
Lovely remote cabin located on HWY 157 (Lookout Mountain Parkway) about halfway between the towns of Mentone, AL and Menlo, GA. Mentone is a quaint and beautiful town on the top of Lookout Mountain. Be sure to visit the DeSoto State Park, Cloudland State Park, and Little River Canyon National Preserve. All within a 30 minute drive of the cabin!!!! This area is an outdoor’s lover paradise!!! Or, if your goal is just to relax in a comfy, remote cabin this is place is a great choice.

I really enjoyed my stay here. The cabin is very cozy and secluded, perfect for a chance to recharge. There is a nice little trail out back too! Some of the kitchen utensils and cookware need to be replaced, but otherwise it’s a perfect spot to get away and relax. Also the host is very helpful and communicative when I needed anything. Would stay here again.

The house was very well kept. We have a few suggestions, NOT complaints. Blinds on the large windows in the living room/dining area, more light in the bedroom/ maybe a light on the ceiling fan, and the bed was very comfortable just very low/ hard to get out of. We enjoyed our stay Very much.

Hidden get away
I liked that the property was secluded most of all. However it was a bit tricky to find. I was mostly disappointed with the cleanliness. I washed everything BEFORE using... (utensils/pots/pans/ dishes etc were dirty). The master shower was unacceptable. Notice the inside of shower picture isn't listed. I would definitely replace whomever cleans here. I wish I could attach pictures. The stove was missing knobs to use and the oven in the picture ... it had fallen or been moved as there was at least an 8" gap from cabinet to oven. Overall opinion, if the appliances were updated (which is probably why dishes were dirty and the dishwasher has note that it drops to the floor when opend) and the living room furniture was updated it could probably rent for more. The house simply needs some love and attention. Although I didn't use the upstairs, for someone who needs all beds advertised, it IS missing the double bed in loft area... Nice Cabin with lots of potential, needs some updating and repairs. For the most part, I enjoyed my secluded quiet stay. PS.. The restaurants in Mentone are awesome!! But all other scenery/ advertures will be a nice hour + drive .
