About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Great Location. Walking distance. Original Character with updates.

Charming, Relaxing, and did I mention Location?! Originally built in 1940, with the heart-pine walls, floors & ceilings still intact. Quaint "wavy board"/live edge timber exterior from local sawmill. 2BR/1BA. Fully furnished including those inviting rockers on the perfect front porch (with cedar railings by local artisan Jeff Rymer). 2-car carport. Property plumbing and wiring updated during a remodel in 2004. Great yard including what is perhaps the prettiest native holly tree in Mentone!

What makes this place so great is how easy it is to walk next door to the market if I need anything. I also love that I can walk to and from dinner if I choose.

There are multiple options for coffee in the mornings. There is a coffee maker for traditional coffee grounds (medium or coarse) and also a Keurig option for K-Cups. Coffee grounds and K-Cups are not always provided so we recommend bringing your own.

The carport is equipped with a Tesla High Power Wall Connector for Tesla Electric Vehicles.

Well equipped cottage in the heart of Mentone. Mentone Market right next door & walked to Wildflower Cafe for lunch. Sidewalk in front makes it easy to get your steps in! Enjoyed sitting on the porch.

Perfect getaway!

Beautiful cabin! Very clean and well stocked! Easy access to parks and loved the sidewalks for am strolls. Only negative....not one restaurant was open. We had no problem doing our breakfast and lunch in the cabin. Wanted to go out for dinners, but we found great places in Fort Payne where we got takeout. The drive there was easy!

It was very restful. Would be extremely helpful to have TV instructions. When turned on and a program was selected, the TV went black. Front porch needs sweeping and spider webs removed. The home was great.

The cutest cabin

I stayed in this cabin for a couple days and it felt so cozy. It was very clean and was stocked with anything we would need away from home. It’s located right next to Mentone Market who has the best pizza ever and amazing service. The cabin was in the perfect spot close to so many different things in Mentone. I will definitely be staying here again!
