The cottage could not be more adorable. Every possible convenience has been thought of. The host was quick to respond when we had trouble with the Wi-Fi.My only concern is that the listing said it was "walking distance to downtown Mentone" Though the distance is not far, it is not walkable either. It is on the main 55mph highway that goes through town with no sidewalks and a steep drop-off from the road. There is constant highway noise inside the cottage.

Loved everything about this cottage!
Great location! Extremely comfortable beds and linens. Great shower! Relaxing, private hot tub. Loved everything about this cottage, but my favorite thing was relaxing on the front porch! Just perfect for coffee and reading in the morning, or winding down at the end of the day.

20th Wedding Anniversary
I can't even begin to describe how amazing the owners were from the moment we booked to the time we arrived. It was exactly as advertised and an absolute charm. Everything was so clean and the beds were incredibly comfortable. It felt like I was staying at home. Mentone is truly a gem tucked away in the hills. The charming shops and mom-and-pop restaurants in downtown Mentone were our favorites. We met so many kind people. We can't believe it took us so long to visit, but we will certainly be back. Thanks for the amazing stay!

Lovely cottage so close yet so far away
This is the perfect location for a NE AL mountain retreat. You get away from it all, but you are in walking distance to Mentone amenities. The cottage itself is so lovely and charming - the most important thing is function of course but the fashion is the cherry on top. Decorations and style were A. The hot tub make this experience 1000x better. We will definitely be back! We visited DeSoto Falls, Little River Canyon, and Little River Falls, but there is so much more to do in reasonable driving distances!

Charming, immaculate, and convenient!
Instead of our usual day trips to Mentone, we decided to stay overnight. This tastefully updated bungalow was a welcome retreat for a long weekend. We found it to be pristine. The neutral country French decor was the right balance between rustic and refined. So relaxing! Before our arrival, the owners provided welcome suggestions for some new dining experiences outside of Mentone and Ft Payne. There is a sidewalk conveniently located outside the house, for a short walk to town. Communication with the owners was thorough and friendly. Arrival and departure instructions were easy. No surprises! We’d love to visit this jewel again.

Lovely Craftsman Cottage in the heart of Mentone
We booked this cabin for our first anniversary. We had spent our honeymoon in Mentone and wanted to come back to the area. We were pleasantly surprised to see the booking from the same owners as our other stay. The owners have done a lovely job renovating this historic cottage into a modern treasure. We loved the decor and how homey it felt. It was also right in the heart of town so it was very accessible to everything we wanted to do.The hosts are wonderful and helpful, we couldn't be more pleased with our experiences with them.
