1880's Log Cabin Luxe + 21st c. Comfort = Mentone's Coolest Cabin
You will not find another cabin like this one! The Nest @ Hoot Owl Hollow is like 2 cabins in one, the king suites are very private. Professionally decorated with comfort & style in mind. Enjoy beautiful woods view & walk to Mentone's village & Brow. Renovated classic 1880's log cabin, perfect place to unwind & reboot in comfy, rustic/modern style. MBR ensuite bath w/2 vanities, clawfoot tub, shower. GBR w/bath & separate bunkroom for kids of all ages. Modern kitchen w/gas range . Covered front porch & stone patio with wood fireplace, wood included. Living room has gas fireplace & comfortable seating. Perfect for couples/ families!
You will feel like you are in the middle of the woods YET you are only a couple of "blocks" away from Mentone's Log Cabin Village, The Wildflower Cafe (3/10 mile) , Elevation Bistro (4/10 mile) & Mentone Market (4/10 mile) .
On Saturday's you can walk to Mentone's Farmer Market, next to the Mentone Inn (2/10 mile walk) & have lunch @ Fontastic Food Truck (slow cooking, worth the wait!)

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by juli
Pat and I are both designers and artists whose focus has been on vacation rental properties along the Gulf Coast and now in the quaint mountain hide-away of Mentone, AL for over 30 years. We enjoy creating spaces that are comfortable and comforting.
Why they chose this property
We consider ourselves "Stewards of the Hollow" and strive to take good care of the land here and creatures here. Juli's Mom (Henrietta aka Henri aka Mama Tut) purchased the property in the 90's and hosted many Thanksgiving gatherings here. It is in honor of Henri (who was a Hoot!) that we share the hollow with others, in the hopes that you too will feel the peace that this land offers, and leave rejuvenated and recharged.
What makes this property unique
IN TOWN BUT FAR OUT! The wonderful thing about Hoot Owl Hollow is that it feels like you are far off in the woods, yet you are really right "downtown". We use quotes because our town is so small we call it a village. To be so small we have 2 wonderful restaurants in walking distance plus you can pick up snacks, to go casseroles, meats, cheeses, beer, wine at Mentone Market. Looking out into the woods you may see deer, turkey or even bear! It's OK, they are just doing their thing. Sit quietly and watch or make some noise and they will leave.
