Wonderful Host! Very private and away from the hussle and bussle. We were greeted with fresh danish and information of things to do in the surrounding area. Loved exploring the property and hiking the trail down to little river. Already planning our next trip.

The cabin and all it offered exceeded our expectations! We are already discussing a return in the spring or early summer. I can’t say enough about the fireplace, or the hot tub, or the wonderful cabin itself. The property was definitely a part of the charm, including the fire pit. We plan to return!

Perfect little getaway for our anniversary weekend. Very clean and cozy. The Fall decor was so cute. Loved being able to get in the hot tub at the end of the day or sit by the firepit. Our host also left us some delicious muffins and treats. The property isn't too far away from Fort Payne or the restaurants and shops in Mentone. We enjoyed getting to hike to Desoto Falls, and at the end of our trip we ate our lunch at Brow Park with a beautiful view from Lookout Mountain.

This property lived up to all positive reviews that I read about before booking it for our stay. It was very clean, cozy and smelled absolutely wonderful when we walked in the door. The directions were spot on to Google maps. It was quiet and comfortable. I plan on booking it again at a later date. And the homemade blueberry muffins were very delicious. Many thanks to our host for the great job they did on this place.
