The property was the best furnished we have ever encountered, including a loaded bird feeder in the back yard, which gave us a good number of hours of enjoyment. A good base of operations from which to explore the nearby waterfalls and hiking opportunities.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house was very spacious with modern amenities and conveniently located within the heart of Mentone. We did not get to use the grill, but it was a nice addition. We enjoyed the fire pit and Greg and Susan were very responsive. Both my wife and I are vertically challenged so we found the downstairs bed unusually high, but comfortable. A stool nearby might make a nice future addition . And although we don’t consider Greg responsible for the neighbors activity, there was unexpected construction at the house next-door very early in the morning.

This home is beautiful and in a great location. We did see the dogs that come on the property and they were very friendly. The porch downstairs and the balcony upstairs off the bedroom were so nice to have with my dog. She loves sitting outside and watching all the birds and squirrels. The place was very clean. There are a couple of complaints/warnings(to other renters) that I would like to make. The bedroom downstairs has a very high bed. This trip I took my 85 and 84 year old grandparents. They could not climb into the bed. We even bought a stool and the bed was still so high. So they had to sleep on the pull out bed in the couch. My grandmother is 4'9" and the bed came right below her chest. The steps leading up to the cabin are very steep. The cabin is very beautiful and spacious. Just not elderly friendly. Host was very easy to reach and friendly.

Nice house. But said it slept six but no sheets or bedding for bed in cubby. Also tv was an issue was unplugged till we discovered that the next day and I guess they want you to stream everything because not a lot of channels to choose from. Also no filters for coffee maker. Had a bunch of chores required before we left to do which I never experienced before. But overall we had a nice time there and really appreciated that it was dog friendly and comfortable and the fireplaces on the porch and outside were really nice to have. Nice neighborhood especially with the water across the road.

About the host

Hosted by Susan Collins

Host profile image
My wife and I bought our beautiful second home as a vacation home to get away from the hectic pace and stress of our jobs. That was 14 years ago. Now we have 2 beautiful daughters, the focal point of our lives. This is part of the reason we decided to rent our home out, for others to enjoy the home as well as we simply don't have the opportunity to get up to the home as often as we would like. We are a family of four and do utilize and enjoy the property, unfortunately, not as much as we would love to as we moved to a different part of Atlanta.

Why they chose this property

Our home is the perfect getaway from the hectic pace of your daily job, stresses in life and provides the opportunity to "disconnect", relax and choose what events and sites to take in within the Mentone area, should you choose to do so. You are in close proximity of taking in all of the picturesque parks and events in and around Mentone, while still enjoying the privacy of not being immediately in downtown Mentone. The home is secluded yet right within the city limits. You can either walk to downtown Mentone via the sidewalk alongside Hwy. 117 or commute there via a 3 minute car ride. What also makes this home special is that is sits right across the street from the eastern section of Little River where Camp Skyline is located, within a short walking distance of the camp if you have kids attending.
