Waterfall Adventure

Hootin' Henri gave us great access to the waterfalls near Mentone and Fort Payne, Alabama. We enjoyed our time at the cabin and exploring the area. The cabin was conveniently located and had everything we needed. I have recommended this property to several friends who will be visiting that area.

Communication with Juli was awesome. We did have a couple of issues. I believe the FireStick failed because we couldn't watch any TV. (We didn't come there to watch TV, but the next guest might be concerned). The main issue that I think you need to address is there is septic gasses coming from Shower and toilet. We had to keep the door closed. These are just some suggestions because we love the place and Juli was awesome to communicate with.

Nice cabin walking distance to Mentone. Ice maker needs to be fixed and need new outside chairs around the firepit. Also, better instructions for the lockbox that holds the key to the door. We loved it there and had a wonderful experience.

Unit was cozy and comfortable. Only real complaint is the entry stairs are about Head-high. Sure would be nice if it had a recliner or at least comfortable chars.

Wonderful Get-Away

Cozy Cabin was a delightful place with awesome location. Even though it was close and walkable to town, the cabin felt secluded. My dog Maya liked it too and met a neighbor’s dogs. The interior was cozy indeed!
