About this property

Mountain Meadow

Hmmm, I think I'd like to find a little cottage to stay in, maybe something near some beautiful parkland. I don't need much, just a bed, a bathroom, small kitchen to prepare meals, maybe a screen porch to sit outside . . . nice. Also, make sure it’s non-smoking and pet free. Oh, and a small campfire would really be a bonus. I've heard Mentone is a special place; really out in the middle of nature. Yes, that's it. That's what I want. Love the thought. I wonder if such a place exists?

See if we can find a place that has a water feature, maybe a small pond where we can fish.

Cozy and peaceful

I really enjoyed staying here! I decided to come by myself and just get some peace, quiet, and relaxation. It was very comfortable. Loved the shower. A few Japanese beetles decided to come in, but no big deal as I get them sometimes at my home. Cell service is spotty, but to be honest....it was actually a blessing to be able to kind of disconnect. I will definitely be re-booking here in the near future! Thank you guys so much!

Perfect for Couples

This property was a cozy cottage with everything you need for a weekend getaway. We were greeted by the friendlist of dogs while entering the grounds. The cottage was well stocked and also a few treats left by the owners. We will definitely return.

Mountain Meadow Cottage

It was fantastic!! Spent a relaxing weekend away to celebrate my husband's birthday!! Cottage was cute and homey!! Ray and Robbie made check in and out easy. They were responsive to texts and you knew you were talking to a person not a pre-planned response from a property management company. Ray even came out to help me park in the rain and dark. Would recommend!!!

Perfection!

The cottage was beautiful, clean and comfortable and the property it sits on its absolutely breathtaking-my husband and I enjoyed hiking the trail and sitting on the screened in porch each morning and evening just taking in the peace of it all. Bobbie was amazing at contacting me before arrival to provide details and stayed in touch through the weekend to make sure everything was perfect. The beautiful cottage and area provided the perfect getaway.

Mountain Getaway

We have stayed several times at this property and we will always go back. Ms Bobbie and Ray have a beautiful place. We have stayed in two different rentals and both were wonderful. The cottage is my favorite though! The whole property is calm, quiet and just serene. Our favorite place hands down!!

Gorgeous little get away

The interior of this little bit away was absolutely amazing we had a wonderful time and thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the area. Wish there had been a little more seclusion but the inside of the property made up for anything lacking. The host was also very accommodating and friendly.

The Cottage

The owners are very sweet and have put a lot of hard work into the place. It was super cute on the inside. The only issue we had was, we was thinking it was a little more secluded. It was surrounded by other properties. This is just a personal thing with us that I didn’t catch. All in all though, a clean great place.

Anniversary Getaway

I booked this rental for my parents' wedding anniversary as they've ways wanted to explore DeSoto Springs. They loved it! My contact with the owners and getting them in contact with my parents on the weekend of their trip was smooth and they made their stay enjoyable!

About the host

Hosted by Bobbie Zakary

Host profile image
Ray and Bobbie bought this property at an auction in 2004. In the years that we've owned it, we've raised our kids, made lots of improvements, and are enjoying the results.

Why they chose this property

When we were searching for a property, we prayed to find a property that would show the beauty of God's creation. We think we succeeded. You be the judge.

What makes this property unique

The property borders the Little River Canyon National Preserve, and DeSoto State Park. Bring hiking boots and a swimsuit - Shigley Hole is just a 15 minute hike down our trails.
