Great Stay!
A beautiful cabin conveniently located on Lookout Mountain very close to town and surrounding parks. Comfortable, quiet, and well stocked with all the comforts of home. The back deck was a perfect place to enjoy the spectacular sunset each evening. We thoroughly enjoyed our three night getaway at Hickory Hideaway!

Our family visited Mentone for a 50th birthday getaway for me. We enjoyed the location and design of Hickory Hideway. It was just what we needed for an escape from the hustle and bustle of our hectic schedules. We recommend.

Sweet Mentone Hideaway
This is a very well done small cabin with 2 nice bedrooms, each having their own bath. The outside deck space is ample, and the kitchen was more than adequate. The owner is very responsive. We hope to return to this little gem!

Hickory Hideaway Fall '22 stay
It's new, so it's in good shape, but here are a few minor things to be aware of: it's hard to find--it needs address numbers at the road. The shower had low water pressure and took time to warm up. It also needs non-stick pans for cooking. The lighting was a bit harsh--too bright in the main overheads, it was all or nothing. Overall, though, we enjoyed the stay and would stay there again. It's close to DeSoto Falls and wedged in between bigger homes. We appreciated the handicapped accessibility for my mom, who's in a wheelchair.
