"Hidden Secret" High Country romance & respite, on 4 acres

A secluded get away providing an opportunity to rejuvenate or maybe to rekindle a romance in a luxury studio.... This location on four private acres, however, is central to restaurants, shopping, hiking and fun in the High Country. This property is nature at its best. Your patio gives a view - and sound - of the Creek below and the beauty of the mountains above, providing sunshine as well as a forested area which provides cool shade in the Summer. Spring brings many songbirds and a full moving loud stream; Summer brings berries, mountain laurel and native Rhododendron, while late Summer yields butterflies on an expansive area on the Creek. Hiking opportunities along the Blue Ridge Parkway and NC Mountains to Sea Trail are a quick drive over our hill, and the New River can be accessed about a mile away. Many options are available for restaurants about 20 minutes away in Boone as well as in the charming town of West Jefferson. In the winter, you will find skiing options begin about 45 minutes away in Blowing Rock with Beech or Sugar Mountains further out. Autumn in the High Country may provides trees turning red, orange and yellow and crisp evenings as the sun sets. Relax on the patio at the end of the day enjoying a glass of wine , cider, or coffee - no matter the Season, .... at "Hidden Secret!"

Wonderful spot for a quiet get away. This VRBO was convenient to several local towns and restaurants for shopping, food, and entertainment. The accommodations were fabulous and the owners were wonderful hosts. The natural areas of the property were beautiful and the views were great.

Very cozy and quiet with a beautiful view. The cat visitor was a nice touch and super cute. We had a great stay and Jefferson state park is right down the road with an amazing Mountain View. Would definitely stay again for a weekend getaway.

This place was so well done, everything we needed. The fireplace was such a treat, and very easy to use. I was very impressed with how the owner did this apartment, deer on the property, rushing creek sounds below. Really enjoyed my stay!

Comfy and Cozy Little Getaway
We spent the weekend at your wonderful rental once again and had a wonderful time. Everything was clean and comfortable. I absolutely love the wind chimes. We sat on the bench outside as the sun was setting Friday Night and listened to the creek and the wind chimes. So relaxing.

Perfect Getaway
We had a wonderful stay at Hidden Secret. Everything was as described and the studio was super clean. It’s perfect for a couple :) The hosts were very welcoming and responded quickly to any questions we had. The nature is absolutely beautiful and the sound of water is so soothing and relaxing. We enjoyed having breakfast on the patio despite it being cold :)

Overflow family
We chose this listing for my brothers visit. Our home is about 10 minutes away. We needed a place for overflow guests visiting here for the 41st Annual New River Canoe Race. This property was perfect. My brother was comfortable and we would choose this property again, especially with its proximity to both West Jefferson and Boone.

Wonderful “hidden secret”
The suite is immaculate! The property is very gorgeous with all tree, the sound of the running creek & the wind chimes. The bench down at the creek is a perfect touch for the peaceful down time. Location is great to get to the blue ridge parkway. The hosts are very sweet & personable & the fresh home made croissants are the perfect end to a wonderful long weekend away.

Wow! What a breathtaking property!
If you want to stay in the mountains with BEAUTIFUL view, this is it!!!! I stayed here alone to explore the beauty of the mountains in NC. Rich and Pat are the hostesses with the mostesess! They were so helpful and knowledgable giving me suggestions on where to go eat, shop, and hike. I am a people person who loves relationships, so I loved feeling like I was family when I stayed here. Did I mention the beautiful property? Many of my friends asked me to share this property after they saw my social media posts.

Lovely hideaway
The house was difficult to find especially since the day turned to night and the area is heavily treed. The apt. Was exactly liked the picture in VRBO. Cozy, comfortable. The outside is beautiful! Garden. Sloping terrain. Changing leaves. Peaceful.

Sabbatical
I needed some place to be alone for a few days and this was the perfect place. Having Pat and Richard upstairs was comforting. They never bothered me but being alone in the mountains would have been a bit scary for me.

Sweet 3 day get-away near Boone!
Hubby and I needed to escape 'the new normal' and the heat...this was the perfect spot! 'Hidden Secret' is a little efficiency that over-looks a wonderful backyard with a babbling stream down below that you can hear all the way up to rental. Rich and Pat want to be sure you have everything you need and are friendly (but not too friendly). Our excursions took us mostly along the Blue Ridge Parkway which is a short distance away. A few specifics...the property is accessed by dirt/gravel road, which is steep and curvy in spots. Our Honda Accord handled it fine, though I was skeptical on the first trip up (after that, we were more used to it and it was no problem at all). There is not a dedicated eating table inside the efficiency, we sat on the couch at the cool, log coffee table, if we weren't outside on the patio at the table which is a bit sunny at dinner time. The bed is great, but is very firm (which we love). You get the run of the property, which we both enjoyed...you can walk along the stream and even wander into their vegetable garden. It's secluded, but not SO secluded. Great stay and we recommend it!
