Private Creek and walking distance to downtown Mentone!

Cozy cottage nestled in the woods with large screened in porch to listen to the birds. Bedrooms have blackout blinds for a prefect night sleep. Fire pit for evenings with the family. Only one mile to Mentone brow park to watch beautiful sunsets. We have games for the rainy days. Fully stocked kitchen. We are 1.4 miles from Lil Mole Run golf course, and best of all a private creek to walk and enjoy all to yourself. This is a new property and the yard is still in progress, thank you for your understanding.

Celebrate our 50th anniversary
Our first time to do a VRBO & we were blown away,,,it was a perfect venue for our 50th anniversary. It’s a beautiful cottage with lots of room and the fall decor made it cozy. We can’t say enough of our host, Amy Kirby, checking to make sure if we needed anything. Great time to go in late October for the colors. Don’t miss a sunset @ Brow Park nearby, great breakfast at The Hatter, visited Desota Falls park & Little River Canyon & just drive around to see more scenery…it’s everywhere. Ft. Payne is not too far a drive for a WalMart run😊 One of our favorites was the screened -in -porch,,, to just chill, read, listen to the woodpecker,,, all the fall leaves dropping, it sounded like a gentle rain. You won’t be disappointed staying at The Creek Side Cottage,,, we didn’t want to leave!

We came up to get away from work and family. The location is nice and quiet, very clean and had plenty of coffee cups. There is a screened in porch in the back that was really nice. We picked up food from The Wildflower Cafe and brought it back. Highly recommend.

Lovely Cottage in Beautful Surroundings of Nature
We were very pleased with lively accommodations and enjoyed a relaxing stay surrounded by the beauty of God's creation. We had a Red Headed woodpecker as neighbor feeding her babies nested in the knot hole of tree. We plan to reserve this cabin everytime we visit Lookout Mountain, AL and Desoto State Park.

New Cottage with a Comfy, Clean Feel
Wow - lovely, warm, and inviting - the host has thought of everything for the decor and modern furnishings. We loved hanging out on the large screened porch with twinkle lights. It was fun to go to Brow Park and to Wildflower Cafe. Roadside Que in Fort Payne has delicious BBQ as well.

Clean and Cozy
The house was immaculately clean and so cozy. The personal touches around the house and how well stocked with essentials it was made it feel very welcoming. We had everything we needed to cook our meals. The porch was the best part and we spent most of our time relaxing out there. It was perfect for a friends getaway. I would love to stay here again.

Lovely cabin, well-appointed.
Very quiet. Beautifully situated on a creek in the woods, but near town. The owner is very gracious— we inadvertently left some workout equipment on the screen porch, and she was happy to UPS it to us at our home.

Secluded but convenient
This house in the woods is perfect. It is a very nice new modern house with all amenities you need. Although there are other houses near by the wooded area makes it private. I can't think of anything else to say except, I want to go back. Be sure to go to the park overlooking the valley and watch the sunset and go to the market for the best pizza you every put in your mouth.
