Like great reviews? Here's one from Dec. 31. "My husband and I have been coming to Mentone for many years, and our son and his friend came with us.We enjoyed the Christmas decor and the cottage was very clean. Located across the Brow we got to see some great views and a beautiful sunset. Enjoyed shopping and eating at some great restaurants too. We will be coming back and hopefully stay at Moonflower Cottage."

We invite you to come visit Mentone at Moonflower Cottage. Mentone is a charming little town in northeast Alabama, just a few miles north of Fort Payne and 45 miles from Chattanooga. It sits atop Lookout Mountain, where the views are not only spectacular but there are wonderful places for hiking, the 104-foot DeSoto Falls just three miles away, and we are close to DeSoto State Park. The flora and fauna are spectacular year around and Moonflower is an easy 1/4-mile walk to the heart of Mentone, where there are charming stores and restaurants and more on the way. Be sure to visit the nonprofit Mentone Arts Center, as well as Elevation Bistro, Wildflower Cafe, the Mentone Market, The Hatter Restaurant and other specialty stores in town and nearby.

Moonflower Cottage will be the star of the your visit. Imagine being surrounded by antique furniture and oriental rugs, granite countertops and stainless appliances, two king en suites with full baths, and a fully equipped kitchen that's been described as "extraordinary."

The screened back porch offers gentle breezes, comfortable wicker furniture and a dining table for six. The front porch has four rocking chairs and it's the best place on earth to see incredible sunsets.

Now, read all our reviews and hear what our guests have said. Please note how many of them compliment us on how clean our cottage is. Then, book your stay quickly. Moonflower Cottage is very popular so pick your dates and come stay with us.

Cutest Place for a Girls Weekend
Moonflower Cottage has to be the cutest, coziest cabin in Mentone. It was so adorable and we had trouble getting motivated to do anything other than laying around in front of the gas logs and laughing until we were hoarse. We had the most beautiful views and sunsets and Ben, our host, was simply the best. He stopped by as we were checking in to make sure all was good and then came and "rescued" us at 10:00 that night, as we had a lock code mishap. Whoops. Do yourself a favor and stay here. There were four of us and it was very comfortable. We definitely plan to return.

Home Away from Home
Our group has rented this beautiful cozy cottage ten times. It never disappoints. Conveniently located to the center of Mentone & yet very quiet & peaceful with fabulous views. We made a point to try to be at the cottage for each sunset because they are spectacular. Moonflower Cottage is a gem with beautiful furnishings, oriental rugs, gas logs, & a well-stocked kitchen. We even have been looking at our calendars because we want to book the 11th adventure!

The property was wonderful. We loved that there were two master bedrooms. The view from the brow was amazing. Out of the 4 nights we were there we had wonderful sunsets for 3 of them. Ben was a tremendous host and the few questions we asked were answered within minutes.

We love staying at Moonflower Cottage and always book our next visit before we even leave. The house is always clean and welcoming. Being able to walk downtown is very convenient, the view is stunning, and Ben, the owner, is always available. I can’t recommend this unit highly enough! Ten stars.

Moonflower Cottage is the perfect place to stay in Mentone! A place for resting, relaxing, recharging and everything in between. Leave your worries behind when you arrive. Enjoy the most gorgeous sunsets from the front porch or peace of nature from the back. Moonflower is inviting & clean - just as the pictures depict. And the hosts are super to work with - very nice & responsive!

Beautiful Cottage
We loved our stay at Moonflower Cottage. Everything was perfect. Ben was an amazing host and we had everything we needed and then some. We loved beginning our day on the back porch with a cup of coffee and ending our day with a glass of wine on the front porch as we watched the sun set. We will be back. Donna

Perfect Cottage Getaway
Not our first stay in the lovely and unique town of Mentone; but, our first stay in Moonflower cottage. This cottage is in an ideal location with breathtaking views from the front porch. The amenities were first rate. Even though it was rainy and windy for much of our stay, thanks to Hurricane Francine, we enjoyed our relaxing, cozy, and comfortable stay in this ideal cottage. Thank you, Mr. Ben, for your assistance! We hope to be back in the Spring!

Another relaxing stay
Gracious owner and delightful housekeeper. We locked ourselves out and within an hour we were back in. It was Friday night when we inconvenienced them, but Lynn made it seem humourous. As always, the cottage has a luxurious aura. Such comfortable nesting spots that it is hard to choose: the screened porch, the porch rockers overlooking the brow, or the recliners in front of the big fireplace. We cannot wait to return. inconvenienced

We needed a long weekend as a family and Mentone is one of our favorite little towns. Ben was absolutely phenomenal from the beginning. He gave us great recommendations on things to do/places to eat. The cottage was wonderful. Well equipped, nicely decorated, and the views at Brow Park across the street were AMAZING!! We will definitely be staying here on our next Mentone trip!
