The cabin was very nice and comfortable, and location was great! While we didn’t walk to downtown Mentone, it would be walkable. The kitchen, while small, was well stocked with everything we needed to prepare meals. The bathrooms were stocked with nice linens and other amenities. The beds and pillowswere very comfortable, and the screened in porch was most enjoyable. Host was very responsive.

The house was just lovely. We traveled for a relaxing, low key weekend with friends and that is just what we got! The accessories were plentiful in the kitchen with even a fire pit outside! Perfect for roasting hot dogs and marshmallows. The screened in porch would have been perfect if the weather had been about 15 warmer! Next time, we'll have to plan an earlier fall trip! Thank you so much for sharing your lovely place!

We got a sweet email from Amy prior to our arrival giving us the entry codes & welcoming us to the cabin. When we arrived, we found the cutest cabin with everything we needed for our stay in Mentone. The kitchen was well stocked & the beds were so comfortable. We really enjoyed the screened porch & walking in the woods behind the cabin. During the day, we attended the Fall Festival & hiked at Desoto Falls. We ate lunch at The Hatter Restaurant & dinner at The Wildflower, both of which were great. Great little cabin & great host! Would definitely stay again.
