Our hosts were very welcoming. The cabin was beautiful and just steps from the Desoto Falls. The view of the river was breathtaking. We enjoyed making smores at the fire pit. I highly recommend a stay at The Lazy River Cottage!

This was a great house to rent while visiting Mentone. The location was perfect for hiking/family time/football watching and indoor/outdoor fireplaces were great. Very comfortable and tasteful interior furnishings and everything was spotless. I imagine the house being on the river would be lots of fun for the warmer months as well. Our family had a wonderful visit.

Great location! So close to the waterfalls, Mentone Market and trails! Delicious food truck right up the way and we used the kayaks all day! Super clean, great beds (including trundle) and supplies for a great weekend with kids and no husbands!
