About this property
Alice’s Acres
About this space
Relax with the whole family at this peaceful, private & newly renovated farmhouse, surrounded by beautiful views of Lookout Mountain and green forests. Take in all that nature has to offer of this large home situated on 4 acres that sleeps up to 14 comfortably. Centrally located between Fort Payne and Mentone it is a quick drive to DeSoto State Park and Little River Canyon for those seeking outdoor adventure! We also love to host out of town workers. Make our place your home away from home.
The space
Since we are located on 4 private acres there is much room outside to have fun and explore. A nice fire pit for relaxing around a fire with family and friends. Enjoy a 12 foot x 60 foot back patio with comfy furniture and outdoor dining. Full kitchen with all new appliances. Super spacious living room with three comfy couches for lounging.
Other things to note
Our home is situated on 4 private acres. To access our house you will drive down 1/3 of a mile on a maintained dirt road. My father-in-law lives in the garage apartment attached to the home. He has his own indoor/outdoor space as well as his own private entrance.
