Perfect house in the perfect location

We have stayed with Delightful Retreats multiple times, and every time the house has been exactly as advertised. This house is walkable to downtown Mentone and all the shops and restaurants. The property is beautiful and you aren't crammed on top of neighbors. Cannot recommend enough.

Refreshing for the Body and the Soul.

The Garden Cottage is a beautiful, peaceful, quiet and restful experience. It is a place you can leave the world behind and refresh your body and soul in the beautiful nature of the gardens and within the warm and cozy cottage. Couldn't have asked for a more perfect place that met all our needs and beyond. Holly was wonderful and answered all our questions immediately. Thank you. We will definitely come back and also recommend this beautiful cottage to others.

Beautiful and Romantic!

I took my girlfriend to Mentone for a romantic birthday to get away from the city. I found The Garden Cottage and boy, is it a fabulous place!! Walking distance to town, quiet and well kept. Cabin is stellar! Clean, well stocked, and with a real kitchen! Very tastefully done overall. Both the GF and I really enjoyed the stay. This is definitely a return-to cabin.

Hot tub was so relaxing and the garden spot was almost whimsical at night the way the entire thing lite up. The multitude of crickets singing at night was amazing and I’m certain a bullfrog frequents the garden fountain as I heard his croaking as well. I would stay again. Very homey feel

Paradise in the Mountains

We had the most perfect stay here! The cabin was unbelievably cozy, warm, welcoming, and had everything we needed. One of our favorite parts was slipping into the hot tub after a day of wandering through the shops in Mentone, or hiking and exploring DeSoto State Park. Everything about this place felt just right. Thank you so much for sharing your slice of paradise with us. We will be dreaming about coming back!

Garden Cottage

The Garden Cottage is an extremely fabulous place to getaway! I went with one of my best friends and we had the most relaxing weekend. We spent a little time in the Mentone shops area but mostly at the cabin. It is so beautiful and well appointed. Will definitely book again!
