Best cottage in the Mentone area!
This cottage is PERFECT! We have enjoyed staying in the main house for several years, but this was our first stay at the cottage. Although it shares ALL of the wonderful amenities of the other house, it has a unique and special personality of its own! The front porch with its gliding rockers has become one of my favorite spots to read and relax, and you can hear DeSoto Falls. It is also a great place to see and hear the many interesting birds in the area. I was quite excited by my first close look at a Pileated Woodpecker! The cottage itself is exquisitely decorated, and the hosts always leave the most beautiful fresh flowers for us! It is also handicap accessible which we did not need, but it will be perfect for some of our family members who would love to join us for a restful mountain vacation. There are not enough superlatives to describe the hosts, Balpha and Brue. It is their personal attention to detail that makes both the cottage and the main house the absolute Best of the Best!

Beautiful cabin
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!

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!

Perfect, peaceful getaway
My in-laws and aunt/uncle stayed at this property, and we stayed at the main house. The home was clean, updated, accommodating, beautiful, and the perfect place for their stay. Would definitely recommend!

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.

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.

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.
