The last couple of days have been pretty eventful here in the funky mountain town of Mentone.

Spring on Lookout Mountain needs to make your bucket list
The weather is starting to warm up, blooms are peaking out, daffodils and rhododendron cover the mountain, hiking trails are getting broken back in, the waterfalls are flowing and glistening in the sunlight, porches are silenced with morning coffee moments and filled with late night laughter, fire pits are dancing in the mountain air, bodies are radiating with peace, joy, and rejuvenation while minds are still...filling with unforgettable memories.
Come adventure with us this spring and summer!

Out with the old, in with the moo 🐮
The Happy Cow Cottage got a new look! We bought this forclosure tiny home from Texas two years ago and it came with some unwanted surprises that we caught last year. When life gives you leaks, you take the opportunity to make some tweaks. The walls and floors in the bedroom and bathroom had to get completely gutted…luckily…we had left over flooring from our home renovation. The Happy Cow Cottage got all new flooring, woods walls in the bedroom and bathroom, new paint throughout the home, painted the lower cabinets, new shower, new bedroom and living room furniture, and we added a kitchen island.
Coming soon…cowboy pool and new deck 🤠

Meet The Team- Emmye Wilson, Co-Owner, Book Keeper, and Marketing Manager
Emmye Wilson graduated from Emmanuel College in 2018 with a Business Administration degree. Before graduating, she was on a hunt to pave her own path and find the perfect place to plant her roots. Emmye worked a part-time job while being a full-time student and athlete in order to have a down payment for her first home. She came across tiny homes which would be an affordable first home option and began traveling around the southeast to find the perfect fit. Little River Escape Tiny Home Community was her last stop and luckily the shoe fit for her to find her perfect first home and a job in sales here January of 2019.
Emmye Wilson started Peach And Pine Tiny Home Hosting the summer of 2019 after one of her neighbors asked her to start cleaning her short term vacation rental when she wasn't working her full-time job as a tiny home sales and marketing manager. Later that year, one of her clients wanted to rent their home out on Airbnb and Emmye saw there was a growing need for cleaners and co-host for tiny home short term rentals. Peach and Pine Tiny Home Hosting was created to fill the gap and spark a new venture for the young entrepreneur. Emmye's now husband, Seth, graduated college the following year and took over Peach and Pine Tiny Home Hosting once they grew to hosting 3 tiny homes within their neighborhood and Emmye could no longer work her full-time job and the growing side hustle. P&P Tiny Home Hosting grew from 3 tiny homes in 2020 to 10 to 15 and currently have 25 unique short term vacation rental listings, not just tiny homes.
When Emmye is not working at Lookout Mountain Lodging, formerly known as Peach & Pine Hosting, she is at their Blueberry Farm, Blueberry Falls Farm, or enjoying raising their 2 year old daughter, Ellye. Emmye is pregnant with their second daughter, Talulah, who should be arriving any day now.
Emmye's Local Favorites:
Hiking- The Pink Trail to the bottom of Desoto Falls
Food- Fontastic Food Truck in Downtown Mentone or Vintage 1889
Shop- The Mentone Market or Myrtle Jane's in Fort Payne
