PROMO 10% WEEKLY AND 15% MONTHLY DISCOUNT Cabin on Little River 2BR/2.5Bathrooms

Beautiful cabin on Little River, half mile from the Desoto State Park Ranger Station, in the mountains near charming Mentone, Alabama. This house has two bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms. It has a deck overlooking the river, with a gas grill. The house is furnished and the kitchen is fully stocked (bring your own food and drink). NO PETS ALLOWED. The house sleeps 8: bedroom 1 has a queen and a twin bed; bedroom 2 has two twins and a bunk bed (full on bottom/twin on top). There is also a full size futon in the den. Close to great hiking, swimming, and canoeing (canoe available for guests). House has a flat screen TV, with a DVD player and a DVD library for all ages. The house has wifi via a satellite service. The wifi does support email and web searches, but does not support streaming movies or high data usage, and is prone to weather related interference and slow network speeds (satellite delays and high usage in the community). Due to the location, the house does not receive local TV channels. If football or other TV related events are important in your lifestyle, please stay some place else so you are not disappointed.
The house is on a steep hill over the water, so not an ideal place for putting in a boat unless you are in great shape. We have a canoe down by the water for guests to use. There is one step to get into the house (the front porch), but the rest of the house is one level and easy to navigate. The stairs in the picture are to get down from the deck to the water. THIS PROPERTY DOES NOT HAVE A DOCK. PLEASE DO NOT USE THE NEIGHBOR'S DOCK, THEY WILL PROSECUTE TRESPASSERS.
There is a swimming hole, which is also a good place to put in personal canoes/kayaks, 1/4 mile down the river, near the bridge.
Also, this is a house in the woods. There may occasionally be bugs or critters, and the place may get dusty, just as every house does. The house and linens will be thoroughly cleaned between visitors, and if you see a problem during your stay just let us know and we'll fix it.
The house is accessed by a key pad lock on the door. To unlock the house, enter the code and turn the knob that is on the keypad. Then turn the door knob.
Google maps has been taking guests to County Road 612, but not to the house. Please turn on CR 612 and drive to the correct house. The number is on the house.
THIS PROPERTY DOES NOT HAVE A HOT TUB.
NO PETS ALLOWED. THIS PROPERTY DOES NOT HAVE A DOCK. PLEASE STAY OFF THE NEIGHBOR'S DOCK, IT IS NOT SAFE AND THE NEIGHBORS WILL PROSECUTE TRESPASSERS. THE NEIGHBORS ARE NOT LIABLE FOR ACCIDENTS OR INJURIES.
During your stay at this holiday home, you're just a quick walk from DeSoto State Park. The holiday home offers a kitchen and 2.5 bathrooms.

Exploring the area
We found DeSoto State Park and Fort Payne a great place to enjoy nature with many trails, beautiful waterfalls and flea markets. The cabin was close proximity to everything we did. I was impressed with the wide-open window view to the beautiful changing fall leaves and stream; and the kitchen had everything we needed to prepare our own meals and enjoy the view. Highly recommend.

When we go on trips like this, the place needs to have necessities, be close to all the things we want to do, and be clean. And for the most part, this place had that. It had everything you would need.

Very Nice Family Vacation
Great location for visiting Little River Canyon National Preserve and Desoto State Park. Quiet neighborhood for canoeing and reading before rest of family arrived. Once our daughter and granddaughters (ages 4 and 6) arrived, it was off to Blue Hole for swimming, Fort Payne for lunch, Sallie Howard Memorial Baptist church to see a church built into a boulder, Desoto State Park to play on the playground, then back to the house for more canoeing and supper. There are so many beds, we’re planning to come back with more family! We loved it!

Planning the next trip NOW!
First off, Valerie is the best host I’ve ever dealt with, super accommodating and accurate, even when plans change a little! Communication was immediate. The cabin itself is everything needed for a week getaway and then some. My wife and I couldn’t get over how quiet and peaceful it was. Our 11 month old daughter enjoyed the open floor plan with lots of playing room. Couldn’t think of a complaint, we’re planning our next trip, this time we’re sharing the experience with friends!

Stay was okay
So the layout is a bit confusing from the pictures. The master shares the wall with the kitchen and the other room shares a wall with the den. Each room has it's own bathroom. I actually like this set up. It's not super sound proof since the walls are open at the top, but it's enough privacy for changing purposes. (It was just my family staying, but we have 5 kids.) However, the kitchen, dining room, den, and living room are all one big T-shaped room. Considering we wanted to put 2 people in the den, this was a bit of an issue, especially since there are zero blinds or curtains in any of this space (no windows in the bedrooms). so they woke up early due to the sun. Also, the bunk bed rail is not secured at all and the whole house was awoken in the middle of the night when it came crashing down on the floor. The two showers have 2 non-water-resistant curtains on them, so water got everywhere because they were soaked through and wouldn't stay inside the shower. There is a bit of mold(?) developing on the wood floor in front of both showers, so I know this isn't the first time occurrence. One of the couch recliners in the living room is also broken. We didn't expect good wifi or to stream anything, so what did work was just fine and not an issue. We didn't expect not to have zero cell service at all across any of our 6 devices. We could could barely get a text out. The place was overall clean and comfortable, just a handful of issues need to be fixed to make this perfect.

Family Get Away
This was a great location and just right for our family of 5. It allowed us to break away from the electronics, computers and cell phones and take a break to enjoy each other's company. Great location as it was close to Desoto State Park, Desoto Fall (would like to have returned there for swiming), and the Little River Canyon (great swiming there is you can handle the long hike). The cabin had every thing we needed. Only draw back was steep access to the river / creek with no hand rails. My husband who has balance issues could not manage. The camp fire spot would have been nice to enjoy, but it would also be helpful to push back the vegetation a little more at the water (looks like a tree fell recently). Great location for the price, but plan on being disconnected as cell service was non-existence unless attached to the internet.

Great short getaway
My parents, myself, and my 3 year old daughter were looking for a short stress free getaway and we found this property. There was no cell service and even the wifi was iffy so we were able to unplug and just have fun together. It is close to Fort Payne, Desoto State Park, and Little River Canyon. Papa was able to fish in the river behind the house in a canoe that was provided and my daughter had fun running around in the yard.
