The Cabin was just what we needed. It was relaxing and quite. We stayed for our anniversary and my wifes birthday. The cabin is not right in the town of Mentone but it is just a short drive.

Cabin was filthy, every surface was covered in pet hair even though it was listed as no pets allowed. Dog had pooped in the closet and left it for us to find. Hot tub was disgusting I spent hours trying to get the water clear. Would definitely not recommend to anyone. Owner did come out and offered a free night. I wouldn’t even stay here for free.

This was our 4th time staying at this cabin over the past 5 or 6 years. We love the view from the LR windows, lots of deer! The location is wonderful, however the cabin is starting to show its age. (The kitchen (frying) pans were very worn and hard to clean. The bedding and mattress are also a quite worn.)

Very nice cabin in the woods, about 5 miles from town. Loved the quaintness and quiet atmosphere. Larry was exceptionally good in communicating precisely how to locate the cabin. He is an excellent host!! It would be helpful if VRBO updated the info to state the cabin is not immediately in town.
Super cute cabin in the woods! Thoroughly enjoyed our stay!!

Secluded Stay, very quiet!

Larry was a great host, responded quickly and had the cabin ready early for us. We stayed with our dogs, very quiet and secluded, yet near town and state parks for a nice hike with the pups! Cabin was clean and had everything we needed for our stay. Would definitely stay again if back in the area. Thank you!!

The place was tranquil. It could really use a lot of cleaning...such as the living room furniture smelled of animals bad and the cobb webs were bad. The oven also didn't work.

Beautiful area. Cabin was wonderful. The only reason I am not giving a 5 star is due to the yard. Would have liked it more manicured. But this did not prevent us from having a fire and enjoying the outdoors.

Quaint Location!

Just had the most wonderful getaway at a cozy cabin! With ample space for two, a relaxing hot tub, and a peaceful, private setting, it was the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle. We can’t wait to return for another rejuvenating stay!

Very private, quiet neighborhood. Home looks good at first glance when you enter but we found hair on the pillows and shower walls. There was no soap provided for shower and I don’t remember reading that we have to carry our own. No coffee in the kitchen but a coffee maker is present. Again, every place I’ve stayed in the past provide the above as minimum requirements specially as this home is not very close to stores. So, carry your own if you are staying here.

Cabin is super cute - beautiful paneling, hot tub on deck, upgraded appliances, spa-quality towels. Bed was clean & comfortable. The road to the cabin is rustic, but it is lined with amazing granite formations. Owner has decorated with his original artwork. Owner is also very nice to deal with and prompt on communications.

Anniversary Trip

We had a great time in Mentone. Our cabin was exactly what we needed. We were happy about how close it was to the areas we wanted to visit. Accommodations were great as well. Thanks for allowing to use your property. We look forward to being back in Mentone soon!

Quiet Time

This place was very quiet, secluded and full of wildlife. Watched deer, turkey and a hawk from the front window while sitting in the living room. It was a nice place to unplug. Strap the garbage can lid down because there is a raccoon that loves to dump it
