About this property
Forget-Me-Knot Cottage at The Wilderness of Mentone adjoins the LRCNP
I'm searching for a charming, beautifully decorated cottage designed for two—peaceful, intimate, and nestled near hiking trails that lead into a breathtaking State or National Park. The space should be non-smoking and pet-free, offering a serene retreat. Ideally, I'd love to hear the distant sound of a train whistle drifting through the valley, adding to the ambiance. A private campfire and a grill would make the experience even better, perfect for quiet evenings under the stars. And if nature allows, I'd be delighted to see deer gracefully roaming near a nearby pond. I know this might be a tall order, but I’m confident this hidden gem exists—if you find it, please pencil me in!
