You have big windows throughout the home to enjoy the views and sunshine. Sit on the deck to enjoy the fresh mountain air and breeze, start a fire in the outdoor fire-pit, or grill for your whole gathering with the propane grill provided. For year-round enjoyment and a luxurious getaway, you can’t get much better than this, you won’t be disappointed!

Great restaurants just 2 minutes to downtown Mentone include Wildflower Cafe, Mentone Market, The Hatter, and many more!

Quality Time with Family

This home was a great option for us and our friends to enjoy a few days in Mentone. With so many options for bedrooms and separate common areas, each family group had places to gather and relax separately and as an entire group. We made good use of the fire pit, enjoyed our walk to Brow Park to soak in the views, and had a memorable and relaxing stay. There were a few maintenance issues that I will share directly with the host so that they can be aware and the issues can be addressed. Would return for another stay in the future.

Sorority Sisters Reunion

My group of friends from college travel together twice a year. This was our first time to stay in Mentone. There were 11 of us this trip and this house was perfect. So nicely decorated. Two kitchens, plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms. Two large porches and a wonderful fire pit! Our hostess was easy to access and quickly responded to our questions. I would highly recommend this house.

Perfect Mountain Getaway

This house is magical! It is spacious enough to have many places to gather, yet it's also easy to slip away for some privacy. The house itself is simply beautiful. Communication was great as well. This is a great house for a large family gathering or a retreat.

Perfect Family Get-Away

The property is large and roomy. There are plenty of gathering spaces to spread out in. We had a couple of issues, but they did not interfere in our fun and could not be helped. Luckily, because it’s so large, there’s a “backup” for everything!

The Quite One

After a rocky start, (a few maintenance issues) to which an owner and his sweet son came to our rescue. The house was very nice. It was so spacious with plenty of gathering places for our 5 couples. We enjoyed just hanging out at the house. The MIL suite was amazing!

Great retreat!

I was hosting a business retreat weekend where we attended online events together as well. It was easy to sync up to the TVs for the broadcast and overall such a wonderful place to relax! Only wish I had had more people to join us. The whole environment was uplifting and refreshing!

Solo retreat was wonderful

The place, while very big for one person, was ideal for my solo get away. SO clean. Kyra was very pleasant to work with and I knew she was there for me should I have a problem. I would recommend for large get togethers, plenty of space to spread out and not be right on top of each other.

Lovely "Get Away" roomy home

We stayed here with our kids and grands. The place was roomy with loads of bedrooms, baths and sitting areas. We brought extra chairs but there were plenty. The kitchen area was nice...the burners on the gas stove were a little wild with poofs of fire when started but regulated without too much trouble. Great place to walk, the Brow Park is just down the road for lovely views. We loved the fire pit and had photos taken outside around the yard...the grands sat on the big grizzly bear statue in the side yard! Thank you for letting us stay there.

Great place for a large group

High Point Retreat was a perfect place for our large (9 person) group. It is nicely decorated, with numerous bed rooms, multiple bathrooms, 4 comfortable living spaces, a large dining area, a well appointed kitchen, and 2 outdoor covered decks. It met all of our criteria, and exceeded expectations. For example, it was nice was that all but 2 bedrooms had only 1 bed (and those 2 only had 2 beds each) and all bedrooms had a bathroom close by. In addition, it is very close to a small park with scenic views across the valley, and also to the Wildflower Cafe, a friendly, quirky dining favorite. It is also close to DeSoto State Park, and a short drive gets you to Chattanooga for even more vacation-tainment options.

Family & Friends Retreat

Without a doubt the positives far outweigh the negative. We came with a party of 16 & the home was beyond spacious. It provides 3 spaces for entertainment & was well stock with complimentary toiletries. The price for the quality could not be beat & the communication was spot on and timely. I think it's important to have realistic expectations as rentals have normal wear and tear. This property being no different. We ran into two problems both were addressed immediately. The air conditioning froze and there was active wood roach activity. Please keep in mind the house is made of wood and is in the woods. While the nooks and crannies werent immaculate the house in general was clean. For that reason only I gave it 4 stars.

Family vacation

This was our second stay in this home. It works well for a large group ( we had 13). The children played in the driveway and we roasted marshmallows at the fire pit. We cooked several meals and ate around the large table. Found the gas stove a little scary as the burners flare up when lit and then burn with an orange flame that leaves soot on the cookware. But it was the same last year so we knew what to expect. The home is clean and the beds comfortable and there’s plenty of room to spread out. Close by one can find kayaking, horseback riding, and hiking. Or you can take a day trip to see caves, shop for antiques or visit Chattanooga.

House was ver roomy for us although had some family that ended up not being able to come.

Only real issues was there were lady bugs all over the house. I know it's that time of year but maybe it could have been checked the day before we arrived or morning of. We sweeper up n still had a great time. The microwave did however throw the breaker but after resetting it had no more issues with it. The grill could have been cleaned or at least a good brush. We cleaned it the best we could but ended up putting aluminum foil on it.( Good thing it caught fire while heating the garlic bread). If we have a large group in the area again we will still consider this house .
