Property Description
This Beautiful Cabin was taken timber by timber from its original location in Etowah County, Alabama. The cabin is pre-civil war in construction, it was reconstructed using the old mortar technique and then added on to in its current location. The Cabin sits on a private road behind a gate. Secluded is an understatement. Fenced yard for your doggies!. It is situated on a bluff overlooking the Crystal Clear East Fork of the Little River, just below a waterfall which can be heard as soon as you open the door to the car during the wetter seasons. We have an inviting front porch with a cozy antique swing where many a book has been read in the fragrant mountain air. The Cabin itself retains all of its antique charm as you enter the Great room with its enormous original stone double sided wood-burning fireplace serving the great-room and the Master bedroom both located on the lower floor. The Upstairs is separated by a staircase that leads to a private spacious upper loft that contains two Twin beds and a Queen Bed. There is a fully functional kitchen with stainless appliances/dishwasher/stove/oven/refrigerator/freezer. One Bathroom Downstairs, with High Efficency Maytag Washer and Dryer. Flat Screen TV with Apple TV/DVD/Inside/outside Stereo/Xbox/Wireless Internet/Dish Network/Central Heat and Air. Master Bedroom overlooks a large elevated back porch and the river can be heard from an open window. There is a large stone hearth wood burning fireplace in the bedroom. The Bedroom opens onto a cozy screened in porch with a 6 person water therapy spa/hot-tub. There is a charcoal grill on the back porch. There are steps to the fire-pit and picnic area overlooking the river, and steps to the river itself where depending on the water level you can swim/float/fish/lounge or sit in the crystal clear mountain water. The house is about 10 minutes from Downtown Mentone for antique shopping/cultural activity/or fantastic food and music at the Wildflower Cafe or other restaurants. The canyon is also about 10 minutes away, and 5 Minutes from Alpine Boys Camp, Desoto State Park, Desoto Waterfall, and Lake. There are wildflowers galore and wild blueberries and blackberries and plums along the road depending on the season. Wildlife abounds everywhere. The Tin Roof provides a great sound to sleep to when it rains. PLEASE INCLUDE YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS AND PHONE NUMBER IN THE TEXT OF YOUR REQUEST SO I CAN GET BACK TO YOU AS SOON AS POSSIBLE!

Book it!! This is the second time my family has stayed at one of these beautiful cabins(we stayed at Valkyrie last visit). Such a relaxing trip to take with my husband & our two teens. We swam everyday in one of the most refreshing rivers on the property. Every evening soaked in the hot tub while listening to most unique bird, Chuck Will's Widow. Ate at the Wildflower Cafe, delish! Hiked down to Desoto Falls & swam a bit. I promise you will not regret booking at any of his properties. We will be back!

Peaceful and relaxing The place was just what we needed. The route down to the river was a challenge due to being out of shape but it was nice to do it together. The scene when you got there was worth the short steep walk. Beautiful. Just a lovely place to be away from it all.

Perfect getaway We enjoyed the property so much and loved that we were forced to relax. We took full advantage of the fire pit and the screened in porch. We had a fair amount of rain both days of our stay and enjoyed listening to it thru the trees on the porch and on the metal roof. My husband and I have stayed in a lot of rentals and he and I both agreed the property was perfect. We couldn’t think of anything that it didn’t have or offer. Thank you!

Great Getaway We needed a getaway and this cabin was just what we were looking for. Communication with the host was timely. Cabin was quaint, rustic and cozy. Hot tub, waterfall, and location were incredible. We will be returning again and again.

Magical Cabin This is a magical cabin! Something new at every turn! Power went out a few hours first night due to a storm. Could hear the river, but see nothing! I had brought a flashlight expecting the weather although there are lanterns provided. I noticed after the power came back which was more quickly than I thought considering the location! Good job! Our Pete settled in quickly and enjoyed being off leash in the yard. Upstairs was fantastic though we didn't need it! It is small but a close group able to enjoy the outdoors and location would be happy! Host was super accommodating, and I do appreciate it! Thanks!
