What a BEAUTIFUL stay!

This was a beautiful stay. It was a bit drafty but sometimes you can't help that, especially with how old the cabin is. Just bring warm clothes if its going to be cold and windy. I can suffer a bit of cold for that view though. Beautiful!

Incredible!

'The Lookout' is a perfect spot for a couple's retreat. We affectionately call it "the bubble" and love coming out here to get away from absolutely everything. This was our second time staying at this property and I cannot recommend it more highly. The cabin has everything you need, the bed is sooooo comfy, and the porch, porch swing, and hot tub are just divine.

Sunsets are Fabulous!

This was our second stay at The Lookout. Sunsets are fabulous on the back porch! The cabin has everything we need for our stay. It was warm, inviting and very comfortable. We look forward to more sunsets at The Lookout!

Very nice mountain cabin

No complaints at all. Cute unit. Incredible view. Close to Mentone, DeSoto Falls and also Cloudland Canyon. Unit is clean and nice. Hot tub works and feels good. Fireplace is really nice and warms room. Had trouble with pilot going out and someone came very quickly and got it started. TV works well. Nicely furnished and some good books. King Bed and couches/chairs are comfortable. HVAC works. Kitchen stuff (stove, microwave, coffee maker) all work. 11 AM check out is nice. Good instructions, directions (exterior locks, TV, fireplace, WiFi, etc.) came a day before check in and made it easy. We would definitely stay again. A very nice place.

Complete Serenity

This was our third time to visit and as always, complete serenity. We come here to get away and relax and this place delivers every single time. We leave feeling so calm and rested and look forward to our next visit. The view is amazing, especially the sunsets. The house is so clean and well supplied. This place is a gem.

Amazing View

We chose this spot for the views and distance from neighbors. Couldn’t be more happy with our stay! The view alone was amazing but add in the porch swing, hot tub, and wind rustling through the trees and it was the perfect getaway.
