Cricket by the Creek - Creek, Trails, Pool, Kayaks

Cricket by the Creek is a shabby chic, tiny home atop Lookout Mountain with its own creek access. We created this tiny home experience to give you a weekend away from your busy life, to unplug and have an unforgettable connection with nature.

Cricket by the Creek is located within a tiny home community called Little River Escape which has many amenities for you to enjoy during your stay: pool, pool house, river and lake access, hiking trails throughout, and fire pits by the river.

I am available by call or text. Calling is usually better as I don't always see texts right away.

Little River Escape is a unique community filled with 50 different tiny homes with residents from across the United States. Mentone, Alabama is a cute and funky mountain town only 6 miles from the community with amazing restaurants (Wildflower Cafe and the Green Leaf Grill) and interesting shops for you to experience.

Cricket by the Creek takes glamping to another level. Enjoy your morning coffee watching the Pileated Woodpeckers and deer roam through the woods from your own private creek overlook. It is a short walk to the common area where the pool and East Fork of the Little River are located within the community for you to enjoy swimming and kayaking. Desoto State Park (15min), Sloppy Floyd State Park (25min), Cloudland Canyon State Park (30min), and Little River Canyon (40min) are a short drive away to explore waterfalls, fish, and hike the area.

We recommend plugging addresses in before you leave the Cricket by the Creek due to cell service being spotty on the mountain. The pool house has WiFi and TV also if needed.

PLEASE print all check-in information and codes before departing for your stay at Cricket by the Creek due to cell service being spotty on the mountain.
