About this property

Secluded Lux Cabin : 21 Acres, Hot Tub & Creek Black Fox

Disconnect completely on 21 private acres of forested mountain land. Soak in the hot tub as fireflies light up the tree line. Enjoy a short hike to your own creek. Wake up and enjoy a coffee on the wrap-around porch while deer wander through.

Black Fox is a newly renovated luxury couples retreat that feels a world away — yet it's just minutes from Mentone's charming downtown and a short drive to DeSoto Falls, Little River Canyon, and Cloudland Canyon.

Beautiful home in the forest with total privacy! Comfortable living room and bedrooms and well-appointed kitchen. Loved the hot tub and fire pit. Note that both bathrooms with showers can only be accessed through the bedrooms, so best for families or close friends :)

Our family stayed in the black fox cabin 2/13-15/26. We had a wonderful time there. The cabin had everything we needed and the hot tub and fire pit were a huge bonus! The cabin itself was decorated so nicely. We spent Saturday, 2/14 hiking to Desoto Falls and we were able to check out the wildflower cafe as well. It was a short trip to celebrate our daughter's 13th birthday, and we were able to do what all she had on her lists to see! Highly recommended this place and we hope to be back soon!
