Stoneridge Cottage I - Best view and walking distance to town

“We have stayed at several cottages in the area and this is by far the best.”

“The pictures don’t do this majestic place justice.”

“There is always a little anxiety when you see something online that looks perfect but when you get there…. Looks are deceiving.! NOT THE CASE AT STONERIDGE COTTAGE I!”

“The décor makes you feel welcome from the minute you step in the front door.”

‘The cottage is beautiful and has so much history and the view is breathtaking.”

Over the past two decades, we have received numerous customer reviews that highlight the exceptional quality of our Stoneridge Cottage. Notably, it was recognized as the “Best of 2025” Mentone vacation rental by Business Rate based on Google All-Time Reviews.

Stoneridge Cottage, designed by renowned Birmingham architect Jacob Salie, was originally constructed in 1940 and has undergone various renovations over the years. This unique cottage boasts two suites, each equipped with a queen-sized bed and a separate sitting area, both of which offer a serene and inviting atmosphere.

Our guest accommodations provide all the comforts of home, including a well-stocked kitchen, fresh linens, comfortable furniture, local art, handmade quilts, and remarkable architectural features. The exposed beams, pine floors, and stone and brick interiors evoke a sense of nostalgia, reminiscent of a bygone era when local artisans took pride in their craftsmanship.

Stoneridge Cottage offers breathtaking valley views, making it an ideal retreat. From the screened porch or hot tub, guests can witness stunning sunsets, distant rain storms, rolling fog, and trains traversing the valley. Relax and savor a morning cup of coffee from the spacious screened porch or the numerous cozy nooks throughout the cottage.

Our prime location provides convenient access to town, allowing guests to explore unique shops and charming restaurants.

Stoneridge Cottage I offers many amenities that include:

A flat screen TV and Blu-ray DVD player in each suite.
DirecTV with all the movie channels.
Wi-Fi service.
Cell phone service is available for Verizon, AT&T and Sprint customers.
The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need including appliances, both auto drip and Keurig coffee pots with coffee and K-cups provided, eating utensils, dishes and glassware, pot and pans, toaster, microwave, ice maker, Bounty paper towels, Vanityfair napkins, sugar and sweeteners, dish washing detergent, dish cloth, and drying towels.
The bathrooms are supplied with wash cloths, bath towels, full size soap bars, hand soap and Charmin toilet paper.
Each bedroom has a queen-sized bed, pillows, bed linens, spreads and blankets.
On the screen porch/deck area there is a gas grill and a NEW hot tub that was installed on July 1, 2023 that overlook the beautiful valley and the spectacular sunsets.

This location serves as an ideal base for exploring various destinations within Alabama, Georgia, and Tennessee. Nearby attractions include Desoto Falls and Little River Canyon. Chattanooga, Tennessee, is approximately a 45-minute drive away and offers unique attractions such as the Tennessee Aquarium, Rock City, Point Park Battlefield, a vibrant shopping scene, diverse dining options, and an exciting nightlife.

To accommodate our numerous guests, we have introduced Stoneridge Cottage II. This cottage offers the same breathtaking view as Cottage I. It is a one-bedroom cottage adorned with a “Pottery Barn” style of decor, complete with the amenities of Stoneridge Cottage I. Stoneridge Cottage II features Wi-Fi, a screened porch, and a private hot tub that overlooks the valley. The cottage boasts vaulted wood and beam ceilings, exuding charm and comfort. It is an ideal retreat for a romantic getaway for two. For further details, additional photographs, and availability information, please visit Vrbo.com/3571237ha.

We love historic homes and this quaint cabin was a delight. It was rather cold so we were not able to enjoy the spacious screened porch (which has a perfect view) but enjoyed the view from the large window in the comfortable sitting area. We chose to sleep in the rock walled bedroom in the original part of the house which opened into the stone
