The cabin actually looked way better in person than in the pictures. The host was very accommodating and very understanding, especially when I had to call her kind of late at night for a problem that I had. The scenery was beautiful. It was an amazing week for our birthday trip. 10/10 I highly recommend

Beautiful home and property! Host was excellent at communicating and answering any questions ahead of our stay. We were so impressed by our experience we are trying to book again in the next month or two! Beds were so comfortable, kitchen, bathroom, and laundry room were well stocked, fire pit was clean and relaxing. We will definitely be back and we can’t wait! Hot tub was so clean and we actually felt very comfortable using it. Other Cabins that we have booked were not as clean and this went way over our expectations! We can’t wait to rebook!!!!

About the host

Hosted by Michelle Mancuso

Host profile image
My home is in Louisiana but quickly fell in love with the Mentone/Lookout Mountain region. I never tire of the beauty or the people and I hope you fall in love too.

Why they chose this property

We have traveled to Lookout Mountain for many years and decided we wanted a vacation home in this unspoiled area. It is so convenient to many other destinations and we often have intentions of using Hawk's Nest Hideaway as the headquarter for further adventures, but we end up falling in love with what the area has to offer in views and outings so we stay and never venture any further than a days drive away. Any time of year, any season we have never been disappointed.

What makes this property unique

This area is unique in that there is a little known fact that Little River Canyon is the deepest river canyon besides the Grand Canyon the USA and the river flows entirely on the top of the mountain. This area is so pristine, clean, uncluttered and unique. You will truly fall in love and want to return many many times. I welcome you and your family to my home.
