Summary:
The sleepy town of Mentone invites you to Magpie Nest. The property sits high in the trees above the detached garage of our sister property, Ruby's Roost. With a private entrance this cozy home boasts an apartment living feel w/1 bedroom, one bath, and a fantastic view!
Mentone is a seasonal destination with a spring Rhododendron Festival (May 18-19) and a fall Colorfest festival. When it is cold enough, you can ski at Cloudmont Ski Resort, and when it’s warm enough you can swim in the river.

The Magpie Nest "Tree House" is an above garage apartment that offers breathtaking views and natural beauty. Our cozy little treehouse offers guests an open-style living space with an eat-in kitchen stocked with all the basics you need to settle in and feel "at home."

A generous bedroom with a queen-size bed and a full bathroom with fresh updates complete our home!

We hope you enjoy our space (inside and out) as much as we do! We are happy to answer any questions about our home and the area! Hope to see you soon!
***Wildlife frequents this area, please use caution***
***We love our big, warm windows - and in the winter, so do ladybugs! They are harmless but resistant to pest control treatments. Please open and close the door to the porch quickly to reduce the number that get inside. If they do, we’ve left a small vacuum in the corner of the dining room. You can suck them up and dump them back outside!***
***We kindly ask guests to treat all towels and linens with care. If any items are stained or damaged beyond repair, a replacement fee will be charged to cover the cost of new linens. This helps us maintain a high standard of cleanliness and comfort for all future guests. Thank you for your understanding!***
