Lovely place

My sons and I really enjoyed staying here. The home was clean and beautiful, the views were excellent, and the screened in porch was lovely. The kitchen was equipped with everything you’d need for meals, and I loved the fact that the bathtub, sink, and toilet are all in separate places. Great place and I’d definitely recommend it.

Perfect Scenic Getaway!

This was the perfect spot for a weekend retreat! Whispering Pines is tucked away in a beautifully remote, wooded area with all the comfort and amenities of home. Quick drive to all the great spots Mentone has to offer.

Girls trip

Lorene was amazing and went above and beyond to make this trip happen for my daughter and I. WP was perfect for us. The back porch was great for morning coffee and evening discussions. It was close to all the places we wanted to hike and see waterfalls. Will definitely stay here again!

Wonderful

It is absolutely beautiful inside, The only problem that we had at first was finding the driveway, but besides that everything else was good, I would definitely rebook again.

Great Thanksgiving getaway

We stayed here while visiting family for Thanksgiving and it couldn't have been better. The property was exactly as described. It was super cute and was spotless. We liked that the shower, toilet, and sink were all separate. The screened in porch and the high ceilings just added to the ambiance. All in all it was a great property. We will more than likely book again in the future.
