This was a perfect stay for us. Close to everything in Mentone. We walked to the Market, The Brow for a sunset watch, and new place Cafe Pilates for a latte and muffin. Was perfect for us and our dog.

When we made the reservations in January, I wasn’t planning to be 2 weeks post op for knee replacement surgery. But, this property was perfect for my recovery. Kitchen was well stocked and comfortable master bedroom. Nice living room area and our favorite enjoyment was the front porch! Very clean and well stocked with everything we could possibly need! We plan on visiting again!

This is a great cottage and conveniently located. Check-in and communication were smooth. No complaints about the place or the host. I will say that if you are looking for a quiet, off-the-beaten-path kind of stay, this is probably not it, as it's right on state highway 117, which gets considerable traffic, including a surprising amount of 18-wheelers. But if you're looking for something in the heart of "downtown" Mentone, and right next to the Mentone Market, this is your place!

The cabin was exactly as represented in the pictures and very clean. It sits on the highway that goes through Mentone, and it is easy to walk to anything in town. Because it is so close to the highway, there is traffic noise when you're sitting on the porch. I knew this beforehand, so it wasn't a surprise nor a problem. However, inside the cabin it is quiet, and the traffic is barely noticeable. The cabin has a warm, rich feel, with old wood floors. The restoration was well done, and it is an enjoyable place to stay. The host is wonderful and replies to any questions promptly.

This cabin is in a perfect place to be close to restaurants, shops, and markets. It's very spacious and the owners provide just about anything you need to be comfortable. The best part for me, is the front porch swing, just like at grandma's!

We enjoyed our stay at Timber Ridge in Mentone. The cabin is within walking distance to restaurants, Saturday farmers market & the Mentone market is next door. The cabin itself had everything we needed & plenty of space for winding down. It is a short drive to both DeSoto State Park/Falls & Little River Canyon preserve. You can enjoy a magnificent sunset at Brow Park which is a very short drive from the cabin. Thanks for sharing your home!

Great cabin for a weekend getaway or a full week. Shops, restaurants, state park and hiking nearby. Cabin was wonderful and absolutely perfect for 4 adults. Clean, cozy and had everything you could want or need. Front porch swing and rockers are a must for early mornings and late afternoons. The Marketplace next door is an absolute gem. Can’t wait to go back!
