2BR/2Bath1800's Original Secluded Romantic River Mountain Cabin Therapy Hottub

Overlooks Deep East Fork EASY access(We accept 1-2 day rentals during the week-Mon-Thursday depending on availability, and 3 day rentals for the weekends.) This Beautiful Cabin was taken timber by timber from its original location in Kentucky. IT is new-old construction taking over a year to build. Construction finish date was February 6th 2015. It is a sister cabin to 'Away from it All' vrbo-480579 which many of you have had the pleasure of staying in. The cabin is model pre-civil war construction, it was reconstructed using modern mortar technique and then added on to in its current location. The Cabin sits near the end of a private dirt and gravel road behind a locked gate. Fenced yard for your doggies! Secluded is an understatement. 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 large covered front porch with swing and with a larger open uncovered front porch with ample log furniture 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 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 three Queen Beds. The Master Bedroom downstairs is off of the Great-room and is garnered with mountain views through perfectly placed casement windows and King Bed, situated perfectly so that you can see the woods and sunrise from the bed. Off of the Master Bedroom is a Beautiful Master bath with stone walk in shower and copper slipper tub, set below a large window overlooking the woods. All sinks were imported from a copper-smith in Mexico. There is a fully functional kitchen with stainless appliances/dishwasher/stove/oven/refrigerator/freezer/microwave and all cooking supplies you will need. One Bathroom Downstairs off of the Great-room with a combo-shower and bath, and a Master Bath off of the Master Bedroom with a Walk in Stone Shower, and Large Copper Slipper Tub. High Efficiency Kenmore Washer and Dryer. 2 Flat Screen TV's up and downstairs with Roku/DVD/WII/Wireless Internet/Dish Network/Central Heat and Air. Land-line phone is present. Cell phone coverage is available from the front porch though spotty at times. I-phones work great through I-message or KIK/any internet messaging service. There is a Master Bedroom that overlooks a large elevated back porch over the river canyon 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 5 person water therapy spa/hot-tub. There is a charcoal grill on the back porch. There is a fire-pit and picnic area above the river, and a built in gravel trail with staircases 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, AL and 15 minutes from Fort Payne, AL 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. There is a Fenced yard on the side of house for pets. The Cabin is behind a locked gate on a private road, it is very secluded. We accept 1-2 day rentals during the week-Mon-Thursday depending on availability, and 3 day rentals for the weekends. Just input your dates and I will get back with you with our availability by email or text. Wood is available for purchase, please see contract for the pricing. When you ask about dates we will respond with a contract sent to your email address if your dates are accepted and available. All dates are first come-first serve, so please respond quickly when you receive a contract. If you wait to make a decision then check the calendar again to be sure it still shows your dates available, it is updated several times a day as reservations are made. This area books up quickly all year long, so plan way ahead.

Annual Girl's Trip
Fist off, this is a beautiful property & cabin. If you want a secluded, serene, relaxing location, this is it. We stayed an entire week and enjoyed it so much. Gorgeous decor, comfy beds, listen to the babbling water outside. With a quick drive into Mentone for shopping, this place is perfect.

BIRTHDAY/HONEYMOON GETAWAY
Beautiful, quiet getaway. This was exactly what we were looking for. Needed a brief getaway waiting on our trip to Ireland. This was exactly what we needed. Unplug, unwind and immerse ourselves in nature. The area is absolutely beautiful. Plenty to see in the area. Did not want to come back down and face reality! Cabin was perfect, no complaints at all. Host was extremely gracious, wanted for nothing. Thank you!

Great little cabin
All the reviews are correct. Perfect little cabin on the river for a vacation in peace. Owner is helpful and informative with any questions. It wasn’t hard to find at all. The river is gorgeous and so peaceful, you don’t even need to leave the property to enjoy yourself, but there’s tons to do if you want to!

Amazing place, we will be back
Much nicer than the photos, very secluded, and quite. Path down to the water was cool. Bed was amazing, loved the hot tub and used the grill. Suggestion to future guest, pick up supplies or food to cook on the way there at a walmart or regular store. Town store was a very pricey. Back to the cabin, it may seem like you're lost, trust the map link they provide. Was amazing sitting near the fire and have a glass of wine with my wife.

Another Wonderful Visit to Fernweh
A pre-summer visit requested by my wife to celebrate post-Mother's Day and eldest daughter's birthday without fuss and bother. As usual we spent evenings at the firepit, walked the path to the river and morning walks down the road. In between my ladies worked a puzzle, read and thoroughly made use of the hot tub. Most pleasant way to spend a mid-week in May.
