Mountain Retreat! Ruby's Roost Home & Loft

Summary:
*2 units-COMBINED booking!* The sleepy town of Mentone invites you to slow down, sit back, and return to a time when front porches opened up to friends as well as vistas. With 4 beds, 3 baths, Ruby's Roost provides ample room for both entertainment and relaxation inside and outside. The 2nd home, Magpie Nest sits high in the trees above our detached garage. With a private entrance this cozy home boas an apartment living feel w/1 bedroom, one bath, and a fantastic view! We can't wait to host you!

The Space:
*Fireworks are strictly prohibited on our property at all times, including holidays. We appreciate your understanding!*

**Note: We offer WiFi for your convenience, but please note the rural location can cause the connection to be spotty, and it may be unreliable at times. We recommend downloading any essential files and content in advance, just in case the connection is not working.**

Upon arrival, enjoy the breathtaking scenery that can be appreciated from one of the many vantage points on our property. Come inside, and you will find the view is just gorgeous! The main level of our home boasts floor-to-ceiling windows and an open-concept living space. Guests will enjoy our full, eat-in kitchen, stocked with all the basics needed to settle in and feel "at home." Our living room provides ample seating options and a large flat-screen TV with Roku. A queen bedroom and a full bathroom are located on the main level as well.
Please continue to the upper level of our house, where guests will continue to enjoy views of the valley below. Two queen bedrooms, each with direct access to a shared full bathroom and laundry can be found on this level. An additional lounge space with games and a futon is upstairs.
The lower level of the home offers a shared relaxing/sleeping space, which includes a small kitchenette, a queen bed, a bunk bed, and a sofa. The last private bedroom is in the basement with a king bed. There is also a full bathroom!
Make sure to try to narrow down your favorite outside spot as well! With three levels of decking that wrap around the house, as well as a fire pit and other various places to sit back and relax, you might find yourself spending more time outside than inside!
Magpie Nest (detached garage apartment)
The Magpie Nest is an above garage apartment that offers breathtaking views and natural beauty. Our cozy little treehouse offers guests an open-style living space with an eat-in kitchen stocked with all the basics you need to settle in and feel "at home."

A generous bedroom with a queen-size bed and a full bathroom with fresh updates complete our home! Don't forget to take time to checkout the beautiful wildlife around the property, especially the ladybugs!
We hope you enjoy our space (inside and out) as much as we do! We are happy to answer any questions about our home and the area! Hope to see you soon!

***Wildlife frequents this area, please use caution***

***We love our big, warm windows - and in the winter, so do ladybugs! They are harmless but resistant to pest control treatments. Please open and close the door to the porch quickly to reduce the number that get inside. If they do, we’ve left a small vacuum in the corner of the dining room. You can suck them up and dump them back outside!***

Paradise on earth

This is the most amazing rental. I used to own a cabin in Mentone and I sold it. I won't ever have to buy another house up there because this will be my go-to spot for vacations in Mentone, and vacations in Chattanooga. I love it. You will love it too.
