About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

The Overlook-gorgeous views

There’s a reason why it's named "The Overlook." While you're relaxing in the outdoor hot tub on the large covered porch, you'll be awestruck with the views of the valley below and the mountains of Alabama, Tennessee and Georgia! Getting back to nature to soothe your soul is simply amazing! As you enter the home, you'll notice the cottage feel. Modern rustic with whimsical touches, the living room is comfortably adorned for watching the flat-screen TV or enjoying the gas log fireplace. A modern kitchen has everything you need to whip up snacks or a gourmet meal, whether you enjoy gathering for dinner or taking it out to the porch to enjoy the pure mountain air. A full size washer/dryer puts convenience at your fingertips. The downstairs bedroom features a King bed and ensuite bathroom with gorgeous, tiled shower. Upstairs, two Queen bedrooms with large bathroom with tub/shower. Whether you're looking for a weekend retreat to relax or a romantic holiday rendezvous, The Overlook is just what you need for that perfect getaway. A local downtown area offers shopping and dining and is a great day-trip, while your evenings can be spent watching the breathtaking sunset from the hot tub, enjoying the cozy fireplace, or sharing memories around the fire pit. Where else can you have it all and detach from the world in your own little bubble of natural beauty?

This cabin is located in a rural, wooded environment. During certain times of the year, seasonal insects such as beetles and stink bugs are common in the area and may occasionally enter the cabin. These insects are harmless and are a normal part of staying in a natural setting. Preventative pest-control measures are in place; however, complete elimination is not possible in this environment.
The cottage is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.

The New Overlook was a nice escape just to relax and unwind. My cousins and I enjoy our short stay here. Mentone is very welcoming. We shopped and at lunch at Mentone Market. The pizzas are so good. We also picked apples at Little River Orchard and I can't wait to return just for the apples.

Perfect Weekend Get Away

My husband & I along with another couple stayed in The Outlook from Friday to Sunday. It was the perfect place! We loved the house, the location, the amenities, the cleanliness and the decor. We hope to visit again! As for Mentone, the shops were fun to visit & see all the creativity and arts. The Wildflower Cafe is a MUST as well as The Hatter. Mentone is a small quaint town that allows you somewhat be unconnected from the hustle and bustle of daily life. Definitely recommend The Outlook in Mentone.
