Lovers retreat

It made Valentine’s weekend memorable, and having a beautiful woman was just an addition that was over the top. Everything was perfect, I’m planning to go back, but this time rent both properties for the entire family to experience the beauty of the waterfalls. The history of the property is enriched with just what an individual falls in love with.

Relaxing getaway

I stayed in this beautiful cottage with my cousin. We planned a last minute nature getaway and it was absolutely perfect. We got the kindest greeting from our sweet host, Balpha the moment we arrived with a lovely tour of the property. The cottage is beautiful with peaceful surroundings and you can hear the sounds of nature all around. We couldn’t have asked for a better stay. Thank you to the lovely hosts for your hospitality!

Best relax cabin in alabama

The property puts you in state of relaxation the min you turn in the driveway. I mean from the sound of the waterfall to the birds chirping and the the clean fresh air. The host and the cabin has a home feeling that takes all the stress away.

Relaxing stay

We had a very nice relaxing time. The screened in porch was amazing! The weather was perfect. The handicap ramp and other amenities were fantastic for my sister who has some disabilities. I highly recommend this cottage especially if you just want to kick back and relax. We are planning to go back. Next time I think we will take more groceries and prepare our meals there.

Perfect for our needs

This cabin was great - just the right size for two couples to spend a weekend in Mentone. The woods made it feel nice and secluded, and we were just a few minutes away from the trailhead to hike down to see DeSoto Falls. If we go back to Mentone, we'll definitely stay here again!

Perfection!

My daughter and I absolutely loved our stay at this cottage. The owner, Balpha, is a true gem! The cottage is gorgeous and oh so comfortable. Meeting Balpha and receiving his tour of the property and tips for Mentone was a highlight! These properties will be our go-to accommodations when we visit Mentone and DeSoto State Park and Falls in the future. A+++++
