About this cottage rental

Oakleaf Hideaway is a recently renovated cottage nestled in the trees on 20 private acres atop of Lookout Mountain. Featuring private walking trails, waterfalls and 2,000 feet of frontage on Straight Creek, the cottage is your perfect getaway to unwind and recharge. Located just 1.5 miles from the Visitor's Center at Desoto State Park, the cottage is close to everything including Mentone, Little River Canyon, and Ft. Payne.

Master Suite:
Enjoy the serenity of the woods and golden sunsets from the comfort of the luxurious King bed featuring 600 thread-count linens. French doors lead to the large back deck with a fire-pit.

The master also features a sitting area with an antique settee from France, a master closet, chest, and a master bath with a full-sized washer and dryer.

Guest Bedroom:
The guest bedroom has two twin beds that can be pushed together for couples. This bright and airy room has beautiful views of the forest and features luxurious linens, drapery and a mural framed with aged local barn wood.

Kitchen:
The well-appointed chef's kitchen features warm butcher block countertops, a large rustic island, new black-stainless appliances with gas stove, and several details built from wood from a nearby 1800's barn. Rough-sawn open shelving from a nearby family farm sets off the beautiful and artistic decor.

Living Room / Dining Room:
The open concept living room exudes coziness and warmth. Hand-scraped oak hardwood floors, wood accent walls, and the limewashed fireplace and wood-burning stove will make even the coldest days delightful. A 40-inch 4k smart television has Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime, and Apple TV apps. Just bring your favorite TV provider login and enjoy a movie night. While we think the best days are the days spent outside, we do have fast WiFi and LTE/4G coverage. The living room also features a pull-out sofa bed with a comfortable new memory foam mattress.

The dining room has seating for six (we've squeezed 9 around the table), and we provide china and service for six as well.

The front door is equipped with a digital lock, and we'll provide you a code prior to your arrival.

We absolutely loved this house. It was so neat and clean. The location is great, you are in between Mentone and Fort Payne. The screened in porch was the best. The host was exceptional. Would highly recommend.

We had a wonderful stay at this woodsy hideaway! Everything was perfect from the excellent directions to the super comfy king bed. The pictures do not even do the place justice. Wonderfully appointed kitchen with everything we needed. We really enjoyed relaxing on the screened in porch listening to the birds and even saw a few deer pass by. Close to great hiking at De Soto and Little River Canyon. Highly recommend!

We had a great time. It’s very convenient to the state park and a great place for runs. The house had some great touches and the screen porch was great for reading and relaxing. The host communicated every step of the way and was very helpful when we left a couple of things behind. The dogs loved it too.

The cabin was very clean and the location was great real close to the state parks . The outdoor area was a little overgrown and the keypad to get into the cabin was very sensitive and took several tries each time to get in. But overall fabulous place to stay and super clean and great location.

The host contacted us after checkin to make sure we found the home as described and see if we needed anything. He was helpful and responded quickly to any inquiries. The cabin is warm and inviting. The kitchen is well stocked with everthing you could need and more. The masterbed is very comfortable and the view into the woods from the deck is a perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee or evening cocktail. The property was so enjoyable, whether sitting on the front swing looking into the small garden or exploring the trail down to the creek and waterfall. I have to mention how sweet it was to have a 3 dog welcoming committee whenever we drove onto the property! What a treat and my dog made quick friends! We would book this cabin again and highly recommend it for any nature lover who is looking for a serene place to stay.
