2BR/2Bath1800's Original Secluded Romantic River Mountain Cabin Therapy Hottub
Overlooks Deep East Fork EASY access(We accept 1-2 day rentals during the week-Mon-Thursday depending on availability, and 3 day rentals for the weekends.) This Beautiful Cabin was taken timber by timber from its original location in Kentucky. IT is new-old construction taking over a year to build. Construction finish date was February 6th 2015. It is a sister cabin to 'Away from it All' vrbo-480579 which many of you have had the pleasure of staying in. The cabin is model pre-civil war construction, it was reconstructed using modern mortar technique and then added on to in its current location. The Cabin sits near the end of a private dirt and gravel road behind a locked gate. Fenced yard for your doggies! Secluded is an understatement. It is situated on a bluff overlooking the Crystal Clear East Fork of the Little River, just below a waterfall which can be heard as soon as you open the door to the car during the wetter seasons. We have an inviting large covered front porch with swing and with a larger open uncovered front porch with ample log furniture where many a book has been read in the fragrant mountain air. The Cabin itself retains all of its antique charm as you enter the Great room with its stone double sided wood-burning fireplace serving the great-room and the Master bedroom both located on the lower floor. The Upstairs is separated by a staircase that leads to a private spacious upper loft that contains three Queen Beds. The Master Bedroom downstairs is off of the Great-room and is garnered with mountain views through perfectly placed casement windows and King Bed, situated perfectly so that you can see the woods and sunrise from the bed. Off of the Master Bedroom is a Beautiful Master bath with stone walk in shower and copper slipper tub, set below a large window overlooking the woods. All sinks were imported from a copper-smith in Mexico. There is a fully functional kitchen with stainless appliances/dishwasher/stove/oven/refrigerator/freezer/microwave and all cooking supplies you will need. One Bathroom Downstairs off of the Great-room with a combo-shower and bath, and a Master Bath off of the Master Bedroom with a Walk in Stone Shower, and Large Copper Slipper Tub. High Efficiency Kenmore Washer and Dryer. 2 Flat Screen TV's up and downstairs with Roku/DVD/WII/Wireless Internet/Dish Network/Central Heat and Air. Land-line phone is present. Cell phone coverage is available from the front porch though spotty at times. I-phones work great through I-message or KIK/any internet messaging service. There is a Master Bedroom that overlooks a large elevated back porch over the river canyon and the river can be heard from an open window. There is a large stone hearth wood burning fireplace in the bedroom. The Bedroom opens onto a cozy screened in porch with a 5 person water therapy spa/hot-tub. There is a charcoal grill on the back porch. There is a fire-pit and picnic area above the river, and a built in gravel trail with staircases to the river itself where depending on the water level you can swim/float/fish/lounge or sit in the crystal clear mountain water. The house is about 10 minutes from Downtown Mentone, AL and 15 minutes from Fort Payne, AL for antique shopping/cultural activity/or fantastic food and music at the Wildflower Cafe or other restaurants. The canyon is also about 10 minutes away, and 5 Minutes from Alpine Boys Camp, Desoto State Park, Desoto Waterfall, and Lake. There are wildflowers galore and wild blueberries and blackberries and plums along the road depending on the season. Wildlife abounds everywhere. The Tin Roof provides a great sound to sleep to when it rains. There is a Fenced yard on the side of house for pets. The Cabin is behind a locked gate on a private road, it is very secluded.

There was a situation that came up outside of the host’s control. It was handled as smoothly as possible and we were put in an upgraded cabin. The cabin was beautiful and welcoming, and we thoroughly enjoyed our time. The cabin had everything we could have needed during our stay and the hot tub was perfect in the cold weather. It was a little bit of a drive to get anywhere, but that was the intention. We enjoyed the seclusion.

It is even better than than the description. I can't think of a more peaceful location for a couple to spend.We actually got a cellular signal most of the time. WiFi worked great. TV worked well, but we did not waste time on TV. It is very much off the beaten path, but not far from nice restaurants, grocery stores, etc. I just loved sitting by the fire with my wife. Some of the furnishings brought back memories of yesteryear.To me, this is an ideal getaway for an adult couple or perhaps a group of 4 friends. If you have small chlidren, they will have to play inside, or be taken elsewhere if they want to hike, etc. But those are close by at DeSoto State Park and several other areas close by.The kitchen is small, but well stocked with all the devices etc you need to prepare meals. I enjoyed grilling on the ample deck space. We will definitely go back!aIt's a very unique restoration. Beautiful copper tub and awesome shower. Nice hot tub on deck . The sound of the water in the canyon is so soothing. The VRBO description of this unique cabin doesn't do it justice. I believe you have to experience it to enjoy the serenity and peace this lovely cabin can give you.

This cabin is cozy, charming, secluded, and immaculate. The great room is well appointed and nostalgic, with a small open kitchen space, large table perfect for playing board games, a huge TV and plenty of DVDs and games, and a large, comfy couch. The bathrooms are pristine, but the en suite bathroom is a stunner, with a huge copper bathtub, walk-in stone shower, dual vanities, and big windows looking out toward the fire pit. There's a comfortable king-size bed in the main bedroom and a loft space with three more nice beds and a TV. Out back is a wonderful huge hot tub in the screened-in porch and a really nice grill. Lots of charming decor touches, including an abundance of owls -- we had fun finding them all. We would absolutely stay here again!

This is a beautiful cabin in a very secluded area. My wife and I stayed here for our 20th wedding anniversary. It was very peaceful to sit on the back porch in the morning and enjoy a cup of coffee while listening to the creek down the hill. We spent most of our time out exploring the area and played golf at the Lil Mole. But in the evenings it was nice to come back to the cabin once again enjoy the peace and tranquility of being away from the rest of the world. We definitely want to stay here again and explore the creek and just enjoy everything the property has to offer.

Very nice cabin in excellent shape. Unfortunately, the listing did not describe a steep walk down to the creek. My wife could not make it down (much less back up) the walkway and stairs. Our main attraction to this cabin - the creek - became a nonentity and big disappointment. Also, it would be good to send the info sooner than 2 days prior. We were already on the road and not able to bring some of the suggested items. This was our first experience with VRBO and maybe our last.

Much needed getaway
If you want to experience a wonderful example of our Lord's creation this cabin is perfect! Cabin is on a very private road. No one is on top of you. We celebrated the 4th of July with the fireworks show in Fort Payne that is only 20 minutes away. We also enjoyed antique shopping in Mentone and Fort Payne. Instacart will deliver for an extra 7 long distance fee. You may have to help with directions. Cabin was very clean and stocked with everything we needed. The fence and screened in porch was perfect for our dogs. Very peaceful and we could hear Whippoorwills at night.

Weekend in the Woods
The property was very nice, clean and well kept. The rules and instructions abundant. The highlight for me was the back porch (with hot tub) which is surrounded by trees and nature. A bonus was the fenced yard for the dog with easy access to the back porch. The home is very isolated which we enjoyed but know it is quite far from town on dark windy roads with patchy internet. My only ding would be that I thought the river was closer to the house. The photos kind of make it look like it is. There was a lot rain before we arrived so we could hear the rushing water but could not see it without walking down the mountain. But once there it was beautiful.
