Perfect Little Hideaway
We had a great stay at the hideaway. The property was family friendly, clean and set up well. The location offers the convenience of being close to town while feeling like a true hideaway. The backyard was perfect for playing outside and with kids and enjoying the fire at night.Dale was a communicative host before and during our stay. One note for future families: I would bring a baby monitor that doesn’t require WiFi if you are traveling with little ones.

Lovely, quiet home in the woods.
The Hogback Hideaway was awesome. Very clean and roomy inside, and of course tons of space outside which made you feel like you were alone on the mountain. Very peaceful and relaxing. Host was easy to communicate with and ensured we had everything we needed. Our group had a great time and we would certainly come back. Top notch! Thank you for a great stay.
