The Crow's Nest: huge balcony, fire pit, pets welcome, fireplace, stunning view!
Welcome to The Crow's Nest, a tiny home with a big view!
Situated off the side of the brow of Lookout Mountain, The Crow's Nest was built for peaceful nights, breathtaking views, and great proximity to amazing hiking, rock climbing, and many other outdoor activities.
Inside, you'll enjoy a comfortable living area with smart TV, queen-sized sleeper sofa, electric fireplace, and a well-equipped kitchen with all needed items for meals/snacks and all appliances, large and small. We have a washer and dryer for your convenience, and complimentary wifi is available. The primary bedroom is on the main level and offers a king-sized bed with smart TV. Up a ladder into our loft, you'll find a queen-sized bed. There is a single bathroom with a large walk in shower.
Step outside to one of the most breathtaking parts of The Crow's Nest: our partially-covered balcony with loads of seating, dining table, and an unmatched view of miles and miles of the Lookout Mountain valley. Step down from the deck and take a seat around our firepit to continue enjoying the mountain atmosphere long after dark.
We also have a level 2 electric car charging station for guest use.
Mentone, Alabama is very nearby with a huge arts and crafts presence in a laid-back mountain community. McLemore Golf Resort is just down the road, and Cloudland Canyon State Park, Desoto State Park, and Little River Canyon are popular nature destinations ready for hikers of all skill-levels. When you're ready to escape the hustle and bustle of city life, The Crow's Nest is ready to be your oasis of peace.
Primary renter must be at least 25 years old, sign a rental agreement within 48 hours of booking, be present for the duration of the stay, and agree to provide the host a credit card on which a $200 damage deposit hold will be placed prior to arrival and then released after his/her uneventful stay. No smoking or parties allowed. Pets are limited to two with a nonrefundable pet fee.

We checked in the evening of the 30th. With the codes given. What a blessing that was. Met with our friends who live a half mile down the road. The place was awesome and so comfortable. The view was spectacular as were many he sunrises.

Crows nest stay
Crows nest is a nice small home to stay at, the view is spectacular. Host communicated well, checking on us and if anything was needed. Check in and out process was simple and had no issues. The community if very quite and very clean. There is a small insect problem that we notified the host about and he is working on that. I would recommend this place for a short stay, if it’s a longer stay bring some cleaning supplies with you.

This is a brand new Tiny home in a quiet area - right now only 3 other houses occupied this hill top area.Beautiful tiny home and great view. Perfect size for us and our pup. Wished we could have used more of the outdoor area, but weather didn't always cooperate. We stayed 4 nights to visit family and nice to have our own space to relax at end of day. Only down side was weather once the fog rolled in didn't feel comfortable going back out on the windy mountain roads with less visibility.
