Quality Time with Family

This home was a great option for us and our friends to enjoy a few days in Mentone. With so many options for bedrooms and separate common areas, each family group had places to gather and relax separately and as an entire group. We made good use of the fire pit, enjoyed our walk to Brow Park to soak in the views, and had a memorable and relaxing stay. There were a few maintenance issues that I will share directly with the host so that they can be aware and the issues can be addressed. Would return for another stay in the future.

Roomy cottage

We’re a group of friends that get together twice a year and this was our Fall trip. The house has lots of space to spread out! Love the open floor plan with the living room and dining table and kitchen all one big room. The bedrooms are laid out so there’s privacy which is nice! Outdoor area is nice too!

Sorority Sisters Reunion

My group of friends from college travel together twice a year. This was our first time to stay in Mentone. There were 11 of us this trip and this house was perfect. So nicely decorated. Two kitchens, plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms. Two large porches and a wonderful fire pit! Our hostess was easy to access and quickly responded to our questions. I would highly recommend this house.

Perfect Family Get-Away

The property is large and roomy. There are plenty of gathering spaces to spread out in. We had a couple of issues, but they did not interfere in our fun and could not be helped. Luckily, because it’s so large, there’s a “backup” for everything!

The Quite One

After a rocky start, (a few maintenance issues) to which an owner and his sweet son came to our rescue. The house was very nice. It was so spacious with plenty of gathering places for our 5 couples. We enjoyed just hanging out at the house. The MIL suite was amazing!

Perfect Mountain Getaway

This house is magical! It is spacious enough to have many places to gather, yet it's also easy to slip away for some privacy. The house itself is simply beautiful. Communication was great as well. This is a great house for a large family gathering or a retreat.

I was hosting a business retreat weekend where we attended online events together as well. It was easy to sync up to the TVs for the broadcast and overall such a wonderful place to relax! Only wish I had had more people to join us. The whole environment was uplifting and refreshing!

Lovely "Get Away" roomy home

We stayed here with our kids and grands. The place was roomy with loads of bedrooms, baths and sitting areas. We brought extra chairs but there were plenty. The kitchen area was nice...the burners on the gas stove were a little wild with poofs of fire when started but regulated without too much trouble. Great place to walk, the Brow Park is just down the road for lovely views. We loved the fire pit and had photos taken outside around the yard...the grands sat on the big grizzly bear statue in the side yard! Thank you for letting us stay there.
