About this property
Tiny Bear Paw-relax, unwind and recharge
Escape to the peace and quiet of Tiny Bear Paw, a cozy woodland retreat designed especially for two adults. Tucked among the trees on beautiful Lookout Mountain, you’ll feel wonderfully secluded while still being only five minutes from downtown Mentone and all its small-town charm.
From the moment you arrive, the wooded setting sets the tone. Start your morning with coffee on the welcoming front porch, unwind with a glass of wine in the evening, or simply sit back and enjoy the sounds of nature.
Inside, Tiny Bear Paw is comfortable, cozy, and thoughtfully equipped for your stay. The living area features a comfortable recliner and chaise lounge, an electric fireplace for chilly mountain evenings—or just a little ambiance—and a laptop stand for those who need to stay connected. A dedicated workspace for two with convenient USB charging makes it easy to work remotely without giving up the comforts of your getaway.
The fully equipped kitchen has everything you need for meals and snacks, including a full-size range, refrigerator with ice maker, dishwasher, cookware, dishes, a spice rack, and a Keurig single-cup coffee maker. Coffee, creamer, and sugar are provided to help make those slow mountain mornings even better.
Upstairs, the cozy loft offers an extra spot to relax, curl up with a book, or sneak in an afternoon nap.
The private bedroom features a comfortable queen bed with fresh linens and direct access to the back porch, where you can step outside and take in the peaceful wooded surroundings. The bathroom includes a walk-in shower, fluffy towels, and shampoo, conditioner, and body wash for your stay.
But some of the best moments at Tiny Bear Paw happen outside. Gather around the smokeless fire pit—we even provide the firewood—or enjoy cooking outdoors on the charcoal grill. Just off the fire pit area is a peaceful deck nestled among the trees with reclining seating, perfect for leaning back beneath the tree canopy, gazing up at the stars, and taking in the sky and surrounding woods.
For even more time in nature, follow the private woodland trail behind the property for a quiet walk, a little reflection or meditation, or simply a chance to unplug and enjoy the peaceful mountain surroundings.
Whether you’re planning a romantic getaway, a peaceful weekend in the mountains, or simply need a beautiful place to unplug and recharge, Tiny Bear Paw gives two adults a private escape in the woods—all just five minutes from downtown Mentone.

Amazing place to stay.
We absolutely loved Tiny Bear Paw! It was so relaxing that I could have stayed there all day. We did have to venture out though. It is so close to everything that helped us to be able to just jump in the car and go to a restaurant! It’s a very comfortable place to just sit and read a book.
We would definitely come back! Loved it there.
Everything was great ! Very clean and had everything we needed and more . The cabin decorations inside and out were amazing will definitely stay there again !

Well thought out
This property (cabin and surrounding area) is very well thought out. The cabin had everything we needed for our stay. We enjoyed afternoons on the screened front porch and evenings in the wooded sitting area. Saw several deer in the fields near the cabin.
The town of Mentone has some neat places to visit and eat. Definitely recommend a short drive to Brow Park for the sunset (get there early for a good spot). We really enjoyed eating at the Wildflower.

Relaxing!
My 87 year old Mother and I needed a change of scenery and a little time to get away so we booked a long weekend at Tiny Bear Paw. It was everything we had hoped for and more! We thought we might read, maybe do a puzzle and unwind by a fire. We ended up taking drives, visiting DeSoto Falls, walking the trails at Tiny Bear Paw and eating at some great restaurants. Our evenings were spent enjoying our favorite show on the large tv. We enjoyed ourselves so much that time slipped away from us. We will be back to read those books and build a fire!
Wonderful place to stay! Clean, nicely decorater and everything is so well thought out. Property is beautiful. I highly recommend choosing this place for a peaceful Mentone stay.
serenity so clean exceeded our expectations : will be sure to return soon

Stylish and cozy tiny house!
We had such a wonderful stay at the Tiny Bear Paw! So close to hiking at DeSoto and all of the amazing food options in Mentone. The owners were extremely fast with their responses and such a pleasure to interact with.

Excellent House and Location
We really enjoyed the stay here. Everything looked exactly the way it did in the photos. A very quiet, relaxing location.
This home was so cozy and was well-equipped with everything we could have possibly needed! We greatly enjoyed our stay and definitely plan to return in the future!
This was the best property we ever stayed in. Everything was perfect and the host had done a wonderful job having everything anyone could need. The location was ideal for a "get-away". The place was perfect and so well done. We did our best to leave the home in the same condition we found it.
My husband and I wanted to get away to celebrate our anniversary. The Tiny Bear Paw Cabin was cozy and homey- just what we wanted. Would definitely stay there again
