About this cottage rental
Whether you come to relax, browse through quaint shops, or explore the natural beauty of Mentone, Chestnut Oaks is the perfect getaway for you.
Our cottage, nestled on the west brow of Lookout Mountain between the historic town of Mentone and Desoto State Park, has a wrap-a-round porch with rockers to enjoy the breathtaking view.
Even though our cottage is equipped with satellite TV which means you won't miss your favorite ball game in the fall, most of you will leave it off to enjoy your restful surroundings. The large porch is the perfect place to enjoy the cool shade of the trees in the summer and colorful fall. The winter months reveal the beauty of the valley below and the ridges in the distance.
Family, friends, or just the two of you can enjoy the rustic pine paneled 'gathering room' where you can read books, play cards or board games, watch TV, or cook up something is the fully equipped kitchen. On a chilly day enjoy a fire in the gas log stove on the stone hearth. There is a small stone patio with a charcoal grill for your cookouts.
The two bedrooms each have a queen sized bed with linens and warm comforts. Each room has storage space in chest of drawers and good closet space. The sofa opens to sleep two if needed. The two bathrooms are equipped with towels and tissue.
The cottage is located 4.6 miles from downtown Mentone and 2 miles from Desoto State Park. Some of the many activities available for you include incredible water falls, hiking, horseback riding at the Dude Ranch and golf at Lil Mole Run. Go to Desoto State park or the Canyon Center for more information on events provided.
If you don't want to cook at the cottage, try some of the wonderful restaurants in Mentone, The Wildflower Cafe, Elevation, Mentone Market and our two new food trucks one at the Mentone Inn and one at Moon Lake Trading Company.
And don't miss the Saturday Farmers Market next to the Mentone Inn, open year round.

Fantastic cabin in a beautiful location. Booking, check-in, and check-out processes were the smoothest I've ever experienced for this kind of accommodation. Communication with the host was easy and responses were received quickly. Highly recommend!

Lovely place! A few notes.-Beds are very nice--definitely not just old beds that they threw in there -Bring your own laundry detergent-The view makes the whole place worth it-The area is a bit remote, so we decided not to go out after dark (just so that we didn't have to worry about finding our way back)-Air conditioner works great, we had good cell signal, it's away from civilization so the wifi is understandably slow-If there's any special kitchen tools you like, bring them. They have basics. -Tap water tastes okay and the ice machine works well. -We liked that it had plenty of towels. -Very clean, you don't need to worry about this. Thanks for a great stay!
