    The house was just lovely. We traveled for a relaxing, low key weekend with friends and that is just what we got! The accessories were plentiful in the kitchen with even a fire pit outside! Perfect for roasting hot dogs and marshmallows. The screened in porch would have been perfect if the weather had been about 15 warmer! Next time, we'll have to plan an earlier fall trip! Thank you so much for sharing your lovely place!

The kitchen, while small, was well stocked with everything we needed to prepare meals. The bathrooms were stocked with nice linens and other amenities. The beds and pillowswere very comfortable, and the screened in porch was most enjoyable. Host was very responsive.

    We got a sweet email from Amy prior to our arrival giving us the entry codes & welcoming us to the cabin. When we arrived, we found the cutest cabin with everything we needed for our stay in Mentone. The kitchen was well stocked & the beds were so comfortable. We really enjoyed the screened porch & walking in the woods behind the cabin. During the day, we attended the Fall Festival & hiked at Desoto Falls. We ate lunch at The Hatter Restaurant & dinner at The Wildflower, both of which were great. Great little cabin & great host! Would definitely stay again.

    This little cottage was so cute and comfortable! It was exactly as described. Amy really put some extra thought into the comfort and needs of her guests. So many little thoughtful touches that most vacation rentals don't offer anymore. If we had forgotten anything, chances are we would have had it. We didn't end up needing anything but it was so nice to know that it was there if we had. My favorite part about coming back from a long day out hiking and checking out the area was the comfy reclining chairs and so many cozy blankets to wrap up in. The coffee bar was so cute and had everything needed to make the perfect cup of morning coffee. I loved that she had a binder full of things to do in the area and menus from local eateries. Her guest book was also fun to look at for suggestions from previous guests. Mentone Market had the BEST pizza and the Hatter Cafe was our favorite breakfast spot! We also enjoyed a day trip to Chattanooga which was only a 45 minute drive. I highly recommend going to the Chattanooga Market which is only open on Sundays. Huge selection of local food and crafts- go hungry! They have so many food trucks and vendors. I would definitely recommend staying here and hope to come back myself one day!

We stay in vacation rentals when we travel, and this one is now at the top of our list of favorites!Shops and restaurants are within walking distance.The owners thoughtfully provided chairs for relaxing by the creek and there is a fire pit for your enjoyment outdoors. Our favorite thing was the screened in porch. We enjoyed our coffee each morning sitting out there listing to the birds. We saw a deer our first morning there.It gets our highest rating for a vacation rental!

    This was the cutest little new “cabin” in the woods in the quaint mountain town of Mentone, AL. It has two huge bedrooms and bathrooms. The main living space was so cozy and comfy with a Christmas tree for the season. The gas fireplace was nice and toasty. The spacious outdoor covered porch was perfect for enjoying the woodsy scenery. It was about two minutes from downtown. Over all a fantastic getaway. Look forward to our next stay!

It was too cold for sitting on the fantastic porch (so we want to go back in warmer weather!)but we enjoyed walking to the creek out back. The area is full of beautiful places within short drives.

    Our first time to do a VRBO & we were blown away,,,it was a perfect venue for our 50th anniversary. It’s a beautiful cottage with lots of room and the fall decor made it cozy. We can’t say enough of our host, Amy Kirby, checking to make sure if we needed anything. Great time to go in late October for the colors. Don’t miss a sunset @ Brow Park nearby, great breakfast at The Hatter, visited Desota Falls park & Little River Canyon & just drive around to see more scenery…it’s everywhere. Ft. Payne is not too far a drive for a WalMart run😊 One of our favorites was the screened -in -porch,,, to just chill, read, listen to the woodpecker,,, all the fall leaves dropping, it sounded like a gentle rain. You won’t be disappointed staying at The Creek Side Cottage,,, we didn’t want to leave!
