We were looking for a place in the mountains for a quick getaway and this was a great find. This was a very neat quaint place for my family. Everything was clean and neat. Our host was very proactive in making sure we had everything we needed. I would book it again if I'm in the area again.

Amazing weekend trip and perfect location for visiting my son @SLTC lineman school. Far enough away to escape but close enough to do any activity in surrounding area. Best restaurant is about ten minutes away @Canyon Grill!

This home is a great option for a couple or small family and is very comfortable for a "tiny home". Everything you need for a few days stay is provided. The location, while a bit of a drive to Chattanooga, is quiet and relaxing.

The Ridge & Falls Team
Thank you!
Thank you for choosing Ridge & Falls for your stay. We’re two places on Lookout Mountain under one name: Highland Gulf Retreat in Menlo, Georgia, and Canyon Falls Cabins in Mentone, Alabama. Different trips, same idea, and we’re glad you picked one of them.
That idea is simple. You get the setting and the amenities of a resort, with the privacy and the price of your own cabin. These are places built for the weekends that matter — the reunion, the anniversary, the trip everyone kept putting off — and for the slow mornings in between.
Get outside while you’re here. Hike the canyon, find a waterfall, book a table down the road, or skip all of it and drink your coffee on the porch. The mountain doesn’t ask much of you. If there’s anything we can do to make your stay better, just tell us.
With love and gratitude,
Ridge & Falls Founders
