Chestnut Cabin is a 3 bedroom/2.5 bathroom newly restored cabin, originally built in 1910 and tucked into the Rhododendron, wisteria and hydrangea at the end of a quiet street but only steps from downtown Mentone.
Constructed of the original Chestnut wood from 1910, and the original native stone in a contemporary rustic style, the professionally decorated cabin is both architecturally stunning and homey, with a warm, welcoming ambiance that will make you feel instantly at ease. On the main level, the living area features a large wood burning fireplace constructed with native stone. The 50” ultra-high definition TV is equipped with Apple TV, soundbar and wifi for streaming your favorite apps. Adjacent the living room, the open kitchen is a cook's dream, with solid wood cabinets, stone countertops, stainless appliances including range, refrigerator, an ice maker, microwave, dishwasher, drip coffeemaker, toaster and all cookware and serving pieces you need. There's room for six at the dining table plus three at the breakfast bar. Or you can fire up the charcoal grill and dine outside as you take in the view from the wrap around screened porch with fans and comfy seating or from the stone patio, enjoying the peace and quiet of Mentone. You'll also find plenty of seating areas, and a fire pit to gather around.
For indoor fun, head to the living room for cards and board games! Or head on outdoors for a game of cornhole or stories, memories and s’mores around the firepit!
At bedtime, you'll slumber in comfort in one of three bedrooms, all on one level. The main bedroom features a king bed, luxurious bedding, decorative fireplace, AppleTV, large floor to ceiling windows, patio access, and en-suite bath featuring a large walk-in shower. The second bedroom features a Queen bed, luxurious bedding, decorative fireplace, smart TV, and en-suite bath with claw foot tub. The third bedroom features two full size beds with luxurious bedding.

Went to paint with friends and had a wonderful stay at Chestnut Cabin!
Beautiful property! The artwork and furnishings were amazing, the wrap around porch was a joy, and the whole experience at the cabin was wonderful. If I could’ve given it ten stars I would’ve!!
We loved our stay! The beds were comfy, the kitchen was well stocked and clean, and the kids loved the games. The porch was relaxing and nice that it was screened in. Thanks, we hope we can come back!

Excellent accommodations, well-appointed amenities, convent location, family enjoyed every feature of the Historic Chestnut Cabin.
The Historic Chestnut Cabin proved to be a wonderful property, offering a relaxing family atmosphere. The convenance of the cabin’s location was a plus allowing quick excursions to Mentone’s many amenities. My family enjoyed cooking kabobs on the outdoor charcoal grill, utilizing the outdoor fire pit for roasting hot dogs and making smores as we told stories late into the night. We had a blast!

Beautiful Cabin with Peaceful Setting
We rented the cabin for a small group church retreat. We found it to be clean and well-supplied with what we needed. The kids loved the outdoor games that were available on the porch. We would stay there again!

Wonderful!
Great place to stay for some quiet time. Every thing was very nice.
Beautiful spacious cabin with updated modern amenities. Me and 5 of my good friends have been traveling together for over 25 years and this was one of the best getaways! Some of the coolest shops and eating at Wildflower cafe and The Hatter Cafe is a must…..the food was excellent! Can’t wait to go back!
Our visit to AL was an amazing weekend of family and hard work preparing for my daughter’s wedding. In spite of the long days of wedding prep we relaxed comfortably in a quaint cozy cottage in Mentone. The cabin was beautifully decorated in relaxing but classic pieces that helped us feel at home. The quiet surroundings created the perfect escape
