Easy check in and easy to find if you use the gps coordinates given. Thoroughly enjoyed our weekend stay. The only thing I could say about the place that’s negative is that the hottub had white cloudy water that smelled like chlorine. Nevertheless it’s a great stay!!!

This cabin has not been throughly cleaned in some time. The furniture on the deck was covered with Spiders and other insects. The setting was like 4” off the ground and not at all comfortable. The only 2 walk ways provided are very step and not at all safe to access the cabin.We didn’t use the Hot Tub. We couldn’t get the WiFi to connect properly. For the money we spent this was not a good stay and I do not recommend this cabin to anyone.

This was our first time staying on this property and it won’t be the last. We had everything we needed inside and outside of the tiny home and were blown away with how comfortable we were.
Wonderful stay, really enjoyed having a quiet beautiful spot to unwind after a busy day enjoying Mentone and Little River Canyon. Thank you!

Thank you for the lovely review! We're so glad you had a peaceful spot to unwind after exploring Mentone and Little River Canyon. We hope to welcome you back soon
Host was incredibly communicative and helpful, and we were very impressed with the amenities(especially the kitchen!) The kitchen was fully stocked with pots, pans, utensils, even a full set of grilling tools were left on the grill along with a spare propane tank! We thought that was incredibly thoughtful. My wife and I had an amazing, relaxing time. We grilled, relaxed in the hottub every day and by the firepit at night. We loved exploring the quaint little town of Mentone and plan to return soon! The grill at this cabin is propane, so charcoal is unnecessary (though we were prompted to bring some for the grill). No complaints, all compliments. The checkout list is very minimal, that was a huge plus.

Me, my mom and 2 teenage daughters stayed for a night. The place and grounds were so clean and we loved the hot tub!! The little neighborhood was so cute with a nice paved road! Maybe bring an extra blanket or two and a flash light for getting to the hot tub but 5 stars!!!!

Nice. Disappointed that the hot tub did not get very hot. Fire pit in front porch did not work properly. Were not able to enjoy those items.

I was not impressed by much with this visit. The cabin had not been swept, the master linens looked to have blood stains on them. When we contacted the owner all they said was "we will discuss with our cleaning crew". There was no gas for the fireplace outside and the outdoor couch was nasty and infested with cat hair. Renter beware!

Thank you for the feedback, Skylar. We have already escalated the issue to our housekeeping team to make sure this does not happen again. Thanks again and I hope we can make it up to you next time.
We had a great time! Very cozy cabin and the hot tub is a great addition.
