Sweet Suite 3 minutes to Dupont State Forest! Take a hike or bring your Bike!

The newest addition to our campground, this private site makes life simple and easy! Includes very comfy Queen size bed, well equipped kitchenette (including frig, microwave, infrared cooktop, sink and a nice bartop), cozy living area with wi-fi streaming tv; all these amenities and more make this the place to be before and after a hike or bike ride in nearby (3 miles) Dupont State Forest. This is a beautiful little room for your rest and relaxation. Step out onto the covered patio area and look down over the garden toward Crab Creek and the mountains beyond. Throw a burger or a steak on the provided gas grill! No longer does the "Hidden Treasure" share shower and porta-jon with the campground! Now fully self-contained with an addition including Separett composting toilet and re-tiled shower! We have done all we know to make this a comfortable and memorable stay for you. Every bit of our cozy bungalow is constructed from recycled, reclaimed and repurposed materials, and hand-made into a home-away-from-home just for you!

Cozy glamping experience

We stayed here for our anniversary weekend and it was perfect. It is so cozy and homey. It had everything we needed and the location is so convenient to everything. The bed was very comfortable. We will definitely be back.

Tiny home away from home

Scott was right there to meet us when we arrived, gave us the lay of the land and a brief history of the campground. Enjoyed meeting him and the time he took to welcome us. House was perfect, bed was very comfortable, clean and peaceful!

A Cozy Cottage in a Great Location

The Hidden Treasure cottage was perfect for us. It's a quirky gem on an unusual property but has everything one needs. It has been thoughtfully appointed with the necessities and was perfectly clean. We especially enjoyed being able to walk to the creek. We enjoyed it, and the beautiful area, so much we've already booked our next stay.

Super Glamping

The only thing that makes this qualify as glamping is the bathroom being outside, otherwise this is a great comfortable and clean studio apartment where you can cook your meals and relax after a days outdoors adventures, it’s centrally located to all the best trails around, quiet and they haven’t priced themselves out of reach like many other ab&b have. I’ve stayed here several times and is the place I look for when visiting.

Great place to stay!

This little spot was absolutely perfect! The outdoor bathroom, aka port-a-potty, was not an inconvenience at all. In fact, i rather enjoyed staying in a place so small and allowing my husband his 25 minute bathroom break without running me out of the place!! The attached shower was awesome too, much better than any campground we have been to. The seclusion the place offered was wonderful. Would most certainly be back!!!

A wonderful Retreat

I spent almost my entire 3 days in this lovely cabin in the mountains. On the 3rd day I was able to spend hours hiking through the DuPont national Forest! The visitors center was only 8 minutes from the cabin and the memories of the entire stay are truly priceless and forever! Thank you. I hope to return again some day. Michael

Reviews are right - everything you need, nothing you don't!

We really enjoyed our stay at the "Hidden Treasure" glamping site. It is ingenious how this cute little spot evolved over time. The foam bed was super comfy and the fridge, microwave, etc. were all the perfect size. We used it as our launching point to Dupont State Park to hike around all the waterfalls. Although the place was a little near to the country road there was absolutely NO noise inside the unit itself. It was a great value for the money and perfect for an impromptu weekend trip.

Perfect location

This is my go to place to stay when visiting the area, I can throw a rock at DuPont from here, right in between Kanuga and the Pisgah trails, 15 min either way. It’s cozy, clean comfortable and I can easily cook my meals, specially with a grill outside to cook some steaks. You never see the host, you have total privacy, unless you need to see the host, they’re there in 20 seconds when you need to jump start your car when the battery dies ;) I have stayed here several times and will again.

They made the process super easy. The place was clean and the bed was comfy! Super close to the park making it super quick to get to the falls I wanted to hike. Location is fantastic to get to Hendersonville or Brevard if you want to eat out.
