This cabin was absolutely AMAZING! It was cute and cozy and perfect for me and my two girls. Balpha was a wonderful host, coming by to make sure we had everything we needed and to show us how to work the tv. I would most definitely rent again!

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!

Perfect relaxation
Our stay was wonderful! The cabin was charming, clean and very cozy. The property manager met us and “showed us the ropes,” which was very helpful. The kitchen is well appointed and an abundance of household supplies were provided. Overall, a fantastic place.

Great place to relax
We had two peaceful and relaxing days. Everything we needed was supplied. Of all the VRBO's it is one of the cleanest that we have ever been to. We always look forward to our time at The Canyon Falls or The Cliff House. I wish there was a way to give it more than 5 stars!

Wonderful lodging and host
The property is perfectly located, easy to access De Soto Fall, which has probably the most magnificent view of the park, arguably the only one. The house is clean and cozy with a beautifully designed interior. Consider to return in the future with friends.

I stayed in this house and other family was in the cliff house. You can’t beat the location, view and sounds of the waterfall! The house is clean, neat and well stocked. The host is helpful and friendly. This is our 2nd time in this house and 3rd time at the cliff house. We will definitely be back! It’s our favorite place!!

Walking distance to the falls. Short drive to Mentone. Quiet place with waterfalls as the background noise. You do have neighbors fairly close but still quiet and peaceful. Would rent again.

Serenity!
My daughter and two teen granddaughters stayed here. (We were in the adjacent Canyon Falls unit.) This unit is spotless, has comfortable beds and plenty of room for everyone. Everything you need for a wonderful stay is here. I had my morning coffee on the front porch which overlooks the quiet woodland that surrounds this piece of heaven. A million thanks to the owner that shares this wonderful property.

Located on gravel road in quiet wooded area just behind another VRBO on rim that overlooks waterfall. Host is helpful and nearby. Stocked with everything you will need. Nice screened in front porch. Mentone is quick car ride. Lots of hiking within one hour. Try Hatter Restaurant.

Just perfect
We had a lovely trip. Cottage was comfortable, very clean and uncluttered. Handicapped accessible and wheelchair friendly. De Soto Falls is a quick walk away. Balpha is a great host and lives very close and is extremely responsive to any needs. We loved the cottage and hope to visit again. R & R is the best medicine!
