About the host

Hosted by Jed Smart

Host profile image
Hi! I’m Jed, based in West Alabama. I travel often (for work and fun) and I’m also a travel advisor, so I’m a little obsessed with the details that make a stay feel easy. Mentone is one of my favorite places to reset—quiet mornings, fresh air, and sunset views that never get old. I enjoy hosting because I genuinely like creating a space where guests can unplug, settle in, and feel taken care of.

Why they chose this property

Tucked away in Mentone’s peaceful mountain setting, the neighborhood is quiet, scenic, and the kind of place where you can actually hear the wind in the trees. The roads are mostly winding and rural, with pockets of charming cabins and homes spread out through the woods. Mornings are calm, afternoons invite a porch sit, and the sunsets over the brow are the main event.

What I enjoy most is how easy it is to slow down here. You’re close enough to enjoy Mentone’s little shops and spots to eat, plus nearby hiking and lookout views—but when you’re back at the house, it feels removed from the noise. It’s a great area for coffee on the deck, a quiet walk, stargazing at night, and ending the day with that wide-open view that makes you take a deep breath without even thinking about it.

What makes this property unique

What makes this place stand out is the combination of **privacy, space, and the view**—it feels tucked away in the trees, but the brow opens up into a big, breath-catching scene that you can enjoy from the house. It’s the kind of setting that makes you slow down the minute you arrive.

Inside, it’s set up to be **comfortable and practical**, not just “pretty for photos.” There’s room for couples, families, or friends to spread out, and the layout makes it easy to be together without feeling on top of each other. The goal is simple: a stay that feels quiet, easy, and memorable—where the details are taken care of so you can just enjoy Mentone.
