Chestnut Cabin-historic home with modern style

Chestnut Cabin is a 3 bedroom/2.5 bathroom newly restored cabin, originally built in 1910 and tucked into the Rhododendron, wisteria and hydrangea at the end of a quiet street but only steps from downtown Mentone.

Constructed of the original Chestnut wood from 1910, and the original native stone in a contemporary rustic style, the professionally decorated cabin is both architecturally stunning and homey, with a warm, welcoming ambiance that will make you feel instantly at ease. On the main level, the living area features a large wood burning fireplace constructed with native stone. The 50” ultra-high definition TV is equipped with Apple TV, soundbar and wifi for streaming your favorite apps.
Adjacent the living room, the open kitchen is a cook's dream, with solid wood cabinets, stone countertops, stainless appliances including range, refrigerator, an ice maker, microwave, dishwasher, drip coffeemaker, toaster and all cookware and serving pieces you need. There's room for six at the dining table plus three at the breakfast bar. Or you can fire up the charcoal grill and dine outside as you take in the view from the wrap around screened porch with fans and comfy seating or from the stone patio, enjoying the peace and quiet of Mentone. You'll also find plenty of seating areas, and a fire pit to gather around.

For indoor fun, head to the living room for cards and board games! Or head on outdoors for a game of cornhole or stories, memories and s’mores around the firepit!

At bedtime, you'll slumber in comfort in one of three bedrooms, all on one level. The main bedroom features a king bed, luxurious bedding, decorative fireplace, AppleTV, large floor to ceiling windows, patio access, and en-suite bath featuring a large walk-in shower. The second bedroom features a Queen bed, luxurious bedding, decorative fireplace, smart TV, and en-suite bath with claw foot tub. The third bedroom features two full size beds with luxurious bedding.

Among the other notable features and amenities at Chestnut Cabin are WiFi, a laundry room, half bath, and ceiling fans throughout.

Wedding weekend

Our visit to AL was an amazing weekend of family and hard work preparing for my daughter’s wedding. In spite of the long days of wedding prep we relaxed comfortably in a quaint cozy cottage in Mentone. The cabin was beautifully decorated in relaxing but classic pieces that helped us feel at home. The quiet surroundings created the perfect escape

Perfect Cabin Getaway

Beautiful spacious cabin with updated modern amenities. Me and 5 of my good friends have been traveling together for over 25 years and this was one of the best getaways! Some of the coolest shops and eating at Wildflower cafe and The Hatter Cafe is a must…..the food was excellent! Can’t wait to go back!

Family Thanksgiving Get Away

Our extended family gathered for a Pre-Thanksgiving feast at the lovely Chestnut Cabin. We knew the cabin was built in the early 1900’s and had been recently renovated. We were so pleasantly surprised at how beautiful this cabin was. It certainly surpassed our expectations. We loved that it was all on one level!

Hidden gem!

My sisters, kids, and myself stayed for the Mentone Festival! The cabin is spacious but very cozy! So many details went into preserving the original feel of the cabin while updating it with a modern twist. Was very clean & the host was very quick to respond to any question's asked. It is so close to everything, but still gives the feel of being secluded. The kids enjoyed the screened in porch with the cornhole boards. The back stoned patio was perfect for gathering as we grilled then enjoyed smores around the firepit! Was the perfect weekend getaway! Will definitely plan to stay again!

Chestnut Cabin

This was a welcoming cabin with a lovely wrap around screened porch. It had been uniquely remodeled with very creative touches. The location was very quiet and wooded and convenient to restaurants and shopping. It was a great place to relax. There were four adults. We all loved it.

Family of 5 in Mentone

We have 3 teen boys and had a wonderful time @ this special cabin! The older ones shared a room with the 2 queens & the younger one lucked out with the beautiful private bath, queen bed & a fireplace in his room. My husband and I were pleased with our amenities in our space as well. I love the age of the place....just know before you go a few doors were hard to close & its not perfect, but very minor things. It snowed while there, so we didn't get out too too much. We brought our own firewood, played board games, watched movies, cooked & enjoyed the beautiful fireplace. We did go hike around DeSoto Falls & Little River Canyon- highly recommend those places. Our oldest is a distance runner in college and he got his miles in smoothly & safely around where we stayed. We ran into some cute shops, went to a farmers market & ordered pizza one night. The decor in this place is super cool, the antiques are interesting, sturdy, sparked some conversations with the kids & on point...it didn't uncomfortabe. Plenty of blankets too!!! We may have to stay here again.
