EARLY CHECK-IN & LATE CHECKOUT OPTIONS
We are at the mercy of the calendar! The only way to guarantee early check-in is by booking the night before. If you want to take a gamble, you can wait until 24 hours before check-in to see if our schedule allows for it.

We wanted to experience a tiny house, and this one was a great one! Comfortable room enough for four people. Too bad it was too cold to enjoy the porch and fire pit. Thank you for a great overnight stay. 😃

Wonderful trip, cute small house
The tiny "cabin" was delightful. It was cozy and fun to explore. We enjoyed the porch and cool night we stayed. Everything was very clean and tidy. The lighted trail to the creek was nicely done. The location is close enough to the state park to be a comfortable trip there and back for any light hikes.

Not exactly a river front home unless you’re able to hike to the river. Thankfully, we are hikers. No tv in the bedroom cost me hrs of sleep (I do realize not everyone sleeps with a tv on but I do). Otherwise it was peaceful and relaxing with many waterfalls to hike in the area.

Excellent experience!
The cutest little house in a beautiful location! We thoroughly enjoyed our weekend stay. The cabin is very well quipped with plenty of supplies for cooking, cleaning, and entertainment. It was very clean when we arrived. The owners are easy to communicate with and pleasant. It is also pet friendly so we were able to bring our furry baby! We will definitely be back here in the future :)

Absolutely Amazing
I can't say enough about this cute little cabin in the mountains. I had never been to Mentone even though i only live about an hour away. This little place right on the river once you walk down the hill. The little bench by the bank very nice to sit out by river at night or during the day. The extra little thought that they put into making tour stay feel like home is really what did it for me. I can't wait to go back again soon.

We loved our first tiny home experience! The place was clean, cozy and just right for what we needed for our girls trip. We will be back! Side note: the only part I wish we had while staying was more or maybe more comfortable outdoor seating on the deck to enjoy the mornings/evenings. The chairs that are there are fine and get the job done but some more comfy ones would have made it even better.

Exceeded expectations!
Cozy tiny home with all the amenities, plus some. The home was exactly as pictured. The kids enjoyed the loft area, which had a few toys and books. The kitchen was stocked with all the basic utensils and cookware. Lots of linens for bathroom and kitchen. Great water pressure in the shower. Definitely recommend, and will be looking for other tiny homes to stay in for future trips!

The property was well appointed for everything imaginable…all linens down to playing cards….kitchen particularly well provided. Very clean. My only disappointment was that it was too cold to enjoy a fire outdoors. Looking forward to coming back in warmer weather…the area is full of so many things to do!

Mentone
The house was perfect for our one night stay in Mentone. The property was just as described in the listing and we felt right at home. I do suggest bringing a sound machine if you’re a light sleeper due to the house being so close to the street and the rooster across the street who started crowing at 4:30am. Overall, it was great!

My son and I have never stayed in a “tiny home” nor had we visited Mentone. I had many questions before we left. The renters were so very friendly answering all my questions. The home was so clean and beautiful! The renters had everything we needed to make our trip awesome…all kitchen cookware, towels, movies and games, and the most comfy blankets ever! I recommend this listing and highly recommend renting from these renters!! Thank you for letting us enjoy your home!

Meticulous Hospitality
This property is as pictured: a cozy, tidy, lovely little jewel of a tiny house. What the pictures don't show is how much attention the owners have put into their guests' comfort: all the dishes, cookware, and kitchen utensils we needed were there; plenty of extra towels and linens, clearly labelled; lots of GOOD board games, movies, even children's books; and that's just what I can recall off the top of my head. It was like being welcomed by thoughtful hosts who have already provided everything you could think of before you asked. 5 stars aren't enough stars!

Sweet Little House
I enjoyed the property so much that I stayed here twice this past summer! The porch was my favorite area to hang out in the evening, as there were fireflies all around. The home is cozy. I really enjoyed listening to Al Jolson and Lawerence Welk on the record player. There is an individual thermostat in the bedroom, which is perfect for those who like to freeze at night. The location is perfect for those visiting Mentone, as the drive to the restaurants and Desoto State Park were short. My only suggestion is for the kayaks to be placed near the water where they can be accessible. They were weirdly positioned under the porch steps at the edge of the slope, making it risky to try to pull them out, as there was not much room to stabilize yourself for balance.
