We recently had the pleasure of spending a weekend getaway in the beautiful mountains of Mentone, Alabama, and overall, it was a fantastic experience. The house was well-equipped, featuring a fully functional kitchen that made meal prep easy. We especially enjoyed the outdoor spaces—there’s a nice grill, a hot tub, and a fire pit, each thoughtfully placed in different areas around the property, allowing us to enjoy the scenery and relax in comfort.One of the highlights of the property was the soothing sound of the water flowing over the dam nearby. It created a peaceful atmosphere that really enhanced the whole experience.That said, we did feel a bit uncomfortable with the exterior cameras. While the camera above the front door was fine, the ones overlooking the back porch and hot tub were a bit much. This wasn’t disclosed until after booking, so it took us by surprise.We also ran into a small issue with the jacuzzi bathtub—it seemed the water heater wasn’t quite sufficient to fill the tub with enough hot water for a full soak, but it wasn’t a deal-breaker for us.The host was very responsive and helpful, always quick to address any questions we had. Despite a couple of minor concerns, it was a lovely stay, and we’d definitely consider returning for another peaceful mountain retreat in Mentone!
