Everything others said about the furniture is accurate. And the coverings in the futon sofa need to be cleaned. There were zero check out instructions. No welcome. Just a little odd all the way around. Conveniently located and well stocked but not terribly clean kitchen items.

This was the perfect spot for our vacation with our dogs. It was clean, had a beautiful view of the forest around it, and the landscapers/cleaners even built up the firepit for us with logs, which we greatly appreciated. Pro tip, that crimson patterned recliner? You need to call that first when you get in. That's the most comfortable chair I've been in. Watching the sun rise and sun set through the windows was emaculate. I would've loved to have been there during snow, but well worth it outside of that. I love this little house.

We loved the cabin and the location. My only complaints would be the sleeping options. The living room needs more comfortable sofa. Maybe even a sleeper sofa. Futon upstairs is not a good sleeping option at all. We had to buy a foam pad and it still was not too comfortable. But would definitely stay here again and just know to bring extra pads.

Cute little cabin, we have stayed here before and would come back in the future. Easy access. The only downside is having to take your own trash with you when you leave. It wasn't a problem at all, just a little odd to me. But otherwise it was relaxing and enjoyable.

We didn't cook during our stay but the microwave tray doesn't turn so heated items tend to burn. Towels in mstr bath were extremely thin & worn. Mstr bath needs a complete update, some shower tiles cracked & grout missing or black. No towel rods or hooks to hang up towels. The bed however was very comfortable & the cabin was clean.

About the host

Hosted by Rachel Neidich-Rook

Host profile image
Hailing from Texas and Tennessee we are honest, straightforward and fun couple. We have a passion for the outdoors and travelling. We know how to travel and we know what travellers want. Collectively we have traveled most of the Continental U.S. (most of that camping) while having visited 20 different countries we definitely want to help make your experience stress-free and fun.

Why they chose this property

We love Lookout Mountain and Menton. It is one of the most unique geographical areas in the south east. Our family are avid outdoor enthusiasts and we love the outdoor activities available in this area. There are great hiking, biking, and hunting activities right out the back door of the house.

What makes this property unique

We're right in the middle of it all! And guess what? it's a great price... heck, just because there's wallpaper in two of the bathrooms (still a work in progress) we will offer our house at a competitive price you can't pass up!
