Chestnut Cabin is a 3 bedroom/2.5 bathroom newly restored cabin, originally built in 1910 and tucked into the Rhododendron, wisteria and hydrangea at the end of a quiet street but only steps from downtown Mentone.

Constructed of the original Chestnut wood from 1910, and the original native stone in a contemporary rustic style, the professionally decorated cabin is both architecturally stunning and homey, with a warm, welcoming ambiance that will make you feel instantly at ease. On themain level, the living area features a large wood burning fireplace constructed with native stone. The 50” ultra-high definition TV is equipped with Apple TV, soundbar and wifi for streaming your favorite apps.
Adjacent the living room, the open kitchen is a cook's dream, with solid wood cabinets, stone countertops, stainless appliances including range, refrigerator, an ice maker, microwave, dishwasher, drip coffeemaker, toaster and all cookware and serving pieces you need. There's room for six at the dining table plus three at the breakfast bar. Or you can fire up the charcoal grill and dine outside as you take in the view from the wrap around screened porch with fans and comfy seating or from the stone patio, enjoying the peace and quiet of Mentone. You'll also find plenty of seating areas, and a fire pit to gather around.

For indoor fun, head to the living room for cards and board games! Or head on outdoors for a game of cornhole or stories, memories and s’mores around the firepit!

At bedtime, you'll slumber in comfort in one of three bedrooms, all on one level. The main bedroom features a king bed, luxurious bedding, decorative fireplace, AppleTV, large floor to ceiling windows, patio access, and en-suite bath featuring a large walk-in shower. The second bedroom features a Queen bed, luxurious bedding, decorative fireplace, smart TV, and en-suite bath with claw foot tub. The third bedroom features two full size beds with luxurious bedding.

Among the other notable features and amenities at Chestnut Cabin are WiFi, a laundry room, half bath, and ceiling fans throughout.

    The Historic Chestnut Cabin proved to be a wonderful property, offering a relaxing family atmosphere. The convenance of the cabin’s location was a plus allowing quick excursions to Mentone’s many amenities. My family enjoyed cooking kabobs on the outdoor charcoal grill, utilizing the outdoor fire pit for roasting hot dogs and making smores as we told stories late into the night. We had a blast!

    We rented the cabin for a small group church retreat. We found it to be clean and well-supplied with what we needed. The kids loved the outdoor games that were available on the porch. We would stay there again!

    Our visit to AL was an amazing weekend of family and hard work preparing for my daughter’s wedding. In spite of the long days of wedding prep we relaxed comfortably in a quaint cozy cottage in Mentone. The cabin was beautifully decorated in relaxing but classic pieces that helped us feel at home. The quiet surroundings created the perfect escape

    Wonderful! The cabin is rustic and the furnishings perfect. We had a small problem with the heat. After informing the host, it was a short time before a repairman came to fix the problem. He even got us a fire starter and built a fire in the fireplace for us. The beds are comfortable. One bedroom has high beds which reminded me of my childhood. It was a wonderful get away weekend for friends.

    Beautiful spacious cabin with updated modern amenities. Me and 5 of my good friends have been traveling together for over 25 years and this was one of the best getaways! Some of the coolest shops and eating at Wildflower cafe and The Hatter Cafe is a must…..the food was excellent! Can’t wait to go back!

    We made so many memories at the Chestnut Cabin. From the moment we walked in, our whole family felt at home. The house is cozy, quaint and inviting. All the bedding is super comfortable, and the updated bathrooms are a big perk! One of the best things about this cabin is the outdoor space. We spent much of our time playing cornhole and Bocce ball in the yard and gathered around the fire pit. A stay we will be talking about for years to come!

    Our extended family gathered for a Pre-Thanksgiving feast at the lovely Chestnut Cabin. We knew the cabin was built in the early 1900’s and had been recently renovated. We were so pleasantly surprised at how beautiful this cabin was. It certainly surpassed our expectations. We loved that it was all on one level!

    This home is lovely with understated, classic furnishings and artwork -- not cluttered like so many short-term rentals are. Kitchen and laundry appliances are new. Master bath (shower only) is new. Although it is on a street with other homes, it felt very private, and the church bells from the Episcopal church on the corner were an added delight. Within very easy distance of downtown Mentone and Desoto State Park. The firepit was our favorite. :)

    My sisters, kids, and myself stayed for the Mentone Festival! The cabin is spacious but very cozy! So many details went into preserving the original feel of the cabin while updating it with a modern twist. Was very clean & the host was very quick to respond to any question's asked. It is so close to everything, but still gives the feel of being secluded. The kids enjoyed the screened in porch with the cornhole boards. The back stoned patio was perfect for gathering as we grilled then enjoyed smores around the firepit! Was the perfect weekend getaway! Will definitely plan to stay again!

    This was a welcoming cabin with a lovely wrap around screened porch. It had been uniquely remodeled with very creative touches. The location was very quiet and wooded and convenient to restaurants and shopping. It was a great place to relax. There were four adults. We all loved it.
