Nestled atop Lookout Mountain, in DeKalb County, Alabama, rests a beautiful and quaint little town. Its name, Mentone, comes from a French word meaning 'musical mountain spring'. Natures music is heard everywhere from the beautiful rush of DeSoto Falls to the gentle rustle of blooming Dogwood in the spring. In fact some say that this part of Alabama has more wild flowers than any other place in the world.

Humans make pretty good music in this neck-of-the-woods too. Visit the Country Band, Alabama's Fan Club and Museum while you're there or attend one of the many festivals with fiddle and banjo strummin' to serenade your vacation musings.
