Had such an incredible weekend staying at Caitriona and Michele's Hermitage! The property and surrounding land is absolutely stunning and PERFECT for pups. Was an ideal mix of feeling off the grid but with modern amenities just a walk away when needed.
The energy of the land truly is so grounding and calm - you can really feel it.

We decided to take our RV out to the Hideout and had such a great time. When we pulled up, we did notice that site 15 was a bit tight for our trailer to be able to back in (not a lot of turn around space in front) so the manager was kind enough to let us use site 16 instead which was way better for our setup. I definitely recommend if you have an RV to book site 16. We had a beautiful view and nice open area for enjoying the campfire. Unfortunately it rained quite a bit while we were there so it did get quite muddy. It might help if there was more gravel on the ground to keep it from being so muddy. The bathroom and outdoor shower were both very nice, clean and worked well. The manager was super helpful and accommodating and checked in a couple times to make sure we had what we needed. Overall loved this campsite and definitely want to come back when it’s not rainy :)

Nice place. Very laid back. Easy access to riding areas and such. Our space #92 did not have a grill. It looks like most spaces have a nice aluminum firepit w holes and a bbq grill. And our unfortunately only had a rock made firepit. Otherwise. It was a great place and we will be back.

Weekend Trip to Hideout Mountain Lodge
I had a great time at hideout Mountain. The airstream was well equipped and I had everything I needed to cook, relax, and stay warm. The Outlook near the site is gorgeous, and I spent most of my mornings looking at the view. Also enjoyed Josie’s hideout saloon and found the service to be really friendly and the vibe to be really nice. Live music was a great touch.

The house is clean, in a safe neighborhood, and a quick drive to grocery stores, restaurants, and the national park. The beds were incredibly comfortable, and the kitchen was well stocked with cookware and even some herbs to use while cooking. The hot tub under the stars was fantastic. I would definitely stay again if I'm back in the area.
