1800's Original Cozy Romantic Cabin For 2 Or The Family

This Beautiful Cabin was taken timber by timber from its original location in Etowah County, Alabama. The cabin is pre-civil war in construction, it was reconstructed using the old mortar technique and then added on to in its current location. The Cabin sits on a private road behind a gate. Secluded is an understatement. Fenced yard for your doggies!. It is situated on a bluff overlooking the Crystal Clear East Fork of the Little River, just below a waterfall which can be heard as soon as you open the door to the car during the wetter seasons. We have an inviting front porch with a cozy antique swing where many a book has been read in the fragrant mountain air. The Cabin itself retains all of its antique charm as you enter the Great room with its enormous original stone double sided wood-burning fireplace serving the great-room and the Master bedroom both located on the lower floor. The Upstairs is separated by a staircase that leads to a private spacious upper loft that contains two Twin beds and a Queen Bed. There is a fully functional kitchen with stainless appliances/dishwasher/stove/oven/refrigerator/freezer. One Bathroom Downstairs, with High Efficency Maytag Washer and Dryer. Flat Screen TV with Apple TV/DVD/Inside/outside Stereo/Xbox/Wireless Internet/Dish Network/Central Heat and Air. Master Bedroom overlooks a large elevated back porch and the river can be heard from an open window. There is a large stone hearth wood burning fireplace in the bedroom. The Bedroom opens onto a cozy screened in porch with a 6 person water therapy spa/hot-tub. There is a charcoal grill on the back porch. There are steps to the fire-pit and picnic area overlooking the river, and steps to the river itself where depending on the water level you can swim/float/fish/lounge or sit in the crystal clear mountain water. The house is about 10 minutes from Downtown Mentone for antique shopping/cultural activity/or fantastic food and music at the Wildflower Cafe or other restaurants. The canyon is also about 10 minutes away, and 5 Minutes from Alpine Boys Camp, Desoto State Park, Desoto Waterfall, and Lake. There are wildflowers galore and wild blueberries and blackberries and plums along the road depending on the season. Wildlife abounds everywhere. The Tin Roof provides a great sound to sleep to when it rains.

Peaceful and relaxing

The place was just what we needed. The route down to the river was a challenge due to being out of shape but it was nice to do it together. The scene when you got there was worth the short steep walk. Beautiful. Just a lovely place to be away from it all.

Book it!!

This is the second time my family has stayed at one of these beautiful cabins(we stayed at Valkyrie last visit). Such a relaxing trip to take with my husband & our two teens. We swam everyday in one of the most refreshing rivers on the property. Every evening soaked in the hot tub while listening to most unique bird, Chuck Will's Widow. Ate at the Wildflower Cafe, delish! Hiked down to Desoto Falls & swam a bit. I promise you will not regret booking at any of his properties. We will be back!

Cozy, Tiny, Charming

Loved the cabin. We stayed very possibly the five coldest nights in the history of Alabama, and loved the quiet stillness. We hiked, ate a lot, read, and did a lot of fun day trips. We would definitely stay again.

Most peaceful place!

I came to stay here with my fiancé after finishing a grueling semester of school and work. It was amazing to get away and unplug for a few days. The property is beautiful, and so quiet. Rob is a great host and answered our questions when we had some trouble with the WiFi connectivity. The instructions to find the place are perfect, and the signage is great. My fiancé and I definitely plan on staying here again.

We enjoyed staying at this secluded cabin. It was clean and cozy. It also had a few things we needed without having to purchase too much. The only thing I would change is clearing the rubbish for a view of the river below the deck.
