The Ridge @ Buena Vista Bluffs is an upscale studio apartment (sleeps 2) nestled in the hills of Mentone in a very secluded area. It is one of three apartments in this complex, is located on the bottom level and is accessed by a flight of stairs. Relax outside on the screened-in porch while enjoying the sights and sounds of nature or snuggle up on the couch and read your favorite book!
Our terrain is a bit rugged. The drive & parking areas are gravel. There is enough parking for one vehicle per reservation directly in front of the property. There is room for additional cars at the top of the hill. The building is a prefabricated concrete structure (much like a hotel) & you may hear your neighbors if other guests are staying.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Thank you for your review.
As we tell everyone in the description . You will hear the neighbors . We make sure you are aware of this before you book . God bless
Everything was as described. Neat, clean and stocked. Location was perfect for us. Close to everything we wanted, yet secluded enough for privacy. Really enjoyed the stay.

We are so glad you enjoyed your stay at The Ridge.. Y'all come back anytime.
We really enjoyed the accommodations, especially the porch! It was very quiet and peaceful when sitting outside. The only complaint is about the noise upstairs. It was like someone was dragging furniture across the floor all night long and it was difficult to sleep. I know we were informed there would be noise beforehand, but didn't expect it to be more than normal "apartment living" noise.
This was an over all nice little place to stay. The location was great with easy access to Mentone. Everything that I used worked great. But definitely listen when they say you will hear your neighbors. Maybe i just had extremely loud neighbors but it sounded like they were going to come crashing down from the ceiling. Plus you can hear every word being spoken. All of the water pipes must run right along the walls in this room. So you will hear all the running water and flushing of toilets. But bed was comfortable. Water was hot. Back deck had a great view. I loved hearing the train as i set out there watching the sun set. I do wish there was a couch out there but the rocking chairs were great. Not sure if the cleaning people just forgot but there was no water bottle left like the pictures show so i wasnt able to make coffee in the morning... sorry not a tap water kind of person. But definitely go to The Hatter Cafe they had great coffee and i bought an extra so i could just heat it up the next morning.
