About this property

Charming Lakeside Cabin on Lookout mountain, by Little River Canyon!

Escape to this peaceful cabin, perfectly nestled beside a tranquil lake, and just a mile away from the breathtaking Little River Canyon Falls. Enjoy your morning coffee on the private dock overlooking the serene waters, or relax by the fire pit after a day of exploring. Fish in our lake, or enjoy our kayaks!

A large, wrap around deck provides rocking chairs with a view of the lake, a hammock, and outdoor, screened in dining.

With modern amenities and farm surroundings, this peaceful cabin is the perfect getaway for families and friends to relax and enjoy time together! Whether relaxing by the firepit or exploring nearby, this quaint and charming cabin offers a peaceful retreat.

Kitchen:
Fully stocked, with a charming rooster theme! We provide all pots/pans and cooking utensils plus dinnerware. Enjoy a toaster oven and 2 types of coffee machines (K-cup and drip), in addition to microwave, toaster, oven/stove with built in air dryers, fridge/freezer and basics (salt/pepper/ sugar/coffee). Enjoy a quick meal at the bar, or a family sit-down at the kitchen table.

Living Room:
Relax with a movie together on our smart TV, the warmth of the electric fire-place, and all of the games/puzzles we have for you to enjoy together. A ceiling fan helps to regulate temperature, whether you choose to use the central AC, heat, or open the windows for some clean mountain air.

Bathroom/Laundry:
We have a shower, complete with soft white towels, soaps, and shampoo. We provide laundry pods as well.

Bedrooms:
The 2 twin bedrooms both have a TV, the master bedroom has a ceiling fan, queen bed, and private access to the screened in porch.

We provide 2 kayaks (waiver required) as well as a fire-pit for you to enjoy a starry night together! There is a private dock with lounge chairs, a propane grill, and picnic table as well. The lake has plenty of fish! We have received pictures from previous guests of their daily hauls.

The cabin boasts a large porch that faces the lake, fitted with rocking chairs as well as a screened in dining area and a hammock.

Location:
*We are less than a mile from Little River Canyon Falls! Mushroom rock, Desota Falls, outlooks, and great hiking all around this cabin.
*There is a cute little diner about 5 minutes from the cabin (Rim of the Cabin grocery and Cafe).
*The cute little town of Fort Payne is about 10 minutes away, with more dining, antiquing, and shopping options.
Come and explore, play, fish, hike or just relax on the deck over the mini Lake

This is a nice cabin with a small lake. It was very clean and cozy. My husband and I had a great time. We would like to go back sometime in the spring or fall to enjoy the lake more. The host was very quick to answer questions.

Thank you Claudia for your review. It always makes me happy when my guests enjoyed their stay despite the winter storm. Please do come again. We always make improvements to this cabin. If you enjoy fishing bring your rod and rail. The Canadian geese will come in the spring and stay till Fall. They are wonderful to watch. Looking forward to hosting you in the future

The house was spotless, beds were comfy and the entire atmosphere was cozy. Check in was also very easy and Deepa communicated well before and during the stay. Just an FYI to pet owners, there is a 50 pet fee that I missed somewhere in the details (which is understandable). We were charged the day before we left. Maybe it was mentioned briefly somewhere in the fine print? Not sure. We have no issue paying this, I just didn’t remember reading it anywhere in the listing details. Overall, was a great stay & experience. We’ll definitely be back.

About the host

Hosted by Deepa

Host profile image
I enjoy nature. I spend time outdoors to reset from cities and working.
I like creating a peaceful environment for families to be together and make memories at my cabin.
I have traveled all over the world and can appreciate good hosting.
I believe relationships are wealth. I respect nature. I want others to enjoy it as much as I do.
I will donate 10% or more each year to the community my Airbnb is in. I am thankful for the opportunities given to me. I know I came into the world naked and will take nothing back, but memories is all I will take back. So I like creating places for people to have wonderful memories. It makes me happy when my guest write reviews that they had a wonderful time with their lovedones at my property enjoyed their stay.

Why they chose this property

I am surrounded by natural beauty here. The mini Lake with fish jumping, the Canadian geese that bathe there in the morning invites me to relax and enjoy the nature. This cabin is near farms. I love hearing the cows and chickens during daytime and sleeping to the sound of crickets at night.

I also like sitting out by the fire pit on cold nights and sipping my hot chocolate. It's so comforting to be wrapped up and watch the flickering, crackling fire.

I love the outdoors. Here there are many great hiking trails and vistas. So I chose this location.
After being in Atlanta traffic it certainly is wonderful to hear the farm animals near this cabin. I enjoy exploring Look Out Mountain, the Canyon, and the Little River water holes.

What makes this property unique

My property is the closest BnB to Little River Canyon Falls. It has a beautiful deck to enjoy fishing and kayaking without having to leave the property. We have so many acres to spread on. It's tucked away making it a private getaway while being so close to Highway 35 and to the center of town. It's also a shirt drive from Atlanta, Chattanooga, Birmingham, and Huntsville.
