About this property

The Lookout on Lookout! Modern 2BR cabin with a hot tub! Overlooking downtown!

The Lookout on Lookout

Welcome to The Lookout on Lookout, a modern mountain retreat perched on the brow of Lookout Mountain with breathtaking views overlooking the charming town of Fort Payne, Alabama. Designed with comfort and style in mind, this cabin blends clean, modern lines with cozy, inviting touches to create the perfect getaway for couples, families, or friends.

Step inside and you’ll be greeted by soaring ceilings and a wall of windows that flood the space with natural light while framing stunning horizon views. The open-concept living area features comfortable seating, a smart TV for movie nights, and a fully equipped kitchen with everything you need to cook and enjoy meals together.

The private hot tub is the crown jewel — the perfect spot to soak while taking in the panoramic mountain scenery by day or stargazing by night. Morning coffee on the deck becomes a daily ritual as you watch the sun rise over the valley.

The bedrooms are designed for relaxation, with plush bedding, stylish décor, and thoughtful touches to make you feel right at home. Modern bathrooms provide a spa-like feel, complete with fresh linens and high-end finishes.

While it may be tempting to spend all your time at the cabin, The Lookout on Lookout puts you just minutes away from some of North Alabama’s most beautiful outdoor attractions. Hike the trails at nearby DeSoto State Park, explore the stunning Little River Canyon National Preserve, or chase waterfalls at Noccalula Falls. For a dose of small-town charm, head into Fort Payne for local dining, shopping, and live music.

Whether you’re planning a romantic escape, a weekend with friends, or a family adventure, The Lookout on Lookout offers the perfect balance of mountain serenity and modern comfort. Come for the views, stay for the memories — this is one getaway you’ll never forget.

Great stay. Decided to extend my sisters training trip a couple extra days. The house was immaculate. The sunset sky was breathtaking. Towels were plush and they thought of everything. Couldn’t have asked for better communication from a host. Hope to stay there again soon!!!!

We can't say enough about this cabin and the hosts! The house even better than pictured. The views are incredible and though we felt like we were in the middle of the woods, we were only a five minute drive from town. The hosts were so responsive when we had a quick question and thought of every detail to make our stay so memorable. We truly didn't want to leave!

Very clean and comfortable cabin (the mattress was amazing)! We liked the location near Little River Canyon, and it was a short drive down the mountain to the grocery store and downtown Fort Payne. My husband and I have stayed at cabins all over the area, and this view was really unique and enjoyable. You get a birds eye view of the hustle and bustle in town, and can see trains going by, all from a peaceful perch on the ridge. The private, wooded setting is beautiful as well. We will be back!

This place was absolutely amazing!! From the moment t we drove up we knew it would be a great getaway. The place was immaculate! It was exactly as described and IMO the pictures don’t do it justice!! The view is perfection with the city below and the mountains in the background! The beds were very comfortable and I have back issues and had no trouble sleeping! Our host was so nice and gave us all the info we needed! I have never stayed somewhere and wanted to go back to that particular one. We are already thinking the next time we visit Ft Payne we will stay here again!!

Awesome cabin for our Anniversary weekend!! The cabin had everything we needed and more. The host was very informative and sweet. Hot tub was a plus with the beautiful view. We watched the sunset relaxing in the hot tub on our last night. This cabin was private enough for us but also close to going to town. It was a 10/10 experience

I would highly recommend The Lookout Cabin! This modern little cabin is tucked way back off the beaten path with cozy bedrooms, and a quaint little kitchen linked to the living room. The overall look and feel of the cabin was just what we needed to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city. My parents and I especially loved sitting out on the deck looking out over the town and watching the hawks fly by.

The Lookout cabin was great! It was clean and beautiful. The views were amazing! Just as the host mentioned in their note back prior to check in, some of the map services out there don't take you to the right place. We called the hosts when were taken to the wrong location and they were very reaponsive and nice. We will definitely stay here again.

We had the pleasure of staying in both cabins, The Lookout on Lookout and The Ledge on Lookout. Both were perfect in their own way. If you want a view overlooking Fort Payne, Lookout is your best option. If you still want a beautiful view of the mountains, a big comfy couch to relax and a stair-free entrance, The Ledge is your place. Both cabins were equipped with anything you need for a couple days or even an extended stay. The cabins were very clean, the snack baskets were a nice touch. Above all, Quincy replied quickly with answers to our questions. 5 stars, hands down! Thanks again for providing a wonderful space to vacation!

The location of this clean, comfortable rental is ideal for a quick drive to downtown Fort Payne coffee shops and restaurants. It is also convenient to Little River Canyon and Mentone. The host Quincy made our check-in very easy and before we arrived he shared the names of local restaurants and attractions. My husband and I enjoyed the beautiful mountain views and we would definitely rent again.
