*We have managed to keep our prices the same since our opening in 2019. Sadly, Hipcamp has raised our fee from 10 to 15%, beginning September 1, 2025. This increase will hit us hard and we have no choice but to increase our prices as well* Hemlock Hideaway and its 18 acres was originally part of a larger 100-acre plot that was surveyed and settled in the late 1700's by Gideon Granger of the Connecticut Land Company. Granger sold it to one Jehoikim Burget in 1815 for the whopping price of $400. The resident house was built in 1816 by Burget and then passed down to family members over the next 5 generations, until we bought it in 2003, marking the first time the house and remaining property were ever officially sold. In the mid 1800's, a grist mill was put up across the river from the cabin, and our creek was the main road in and out of that operation. There is a gravestone belonging to the wife of Jehoikim's son, she being half Native American and therefore couldn't be buried in the local white cemetery. We also own the original hand-written deed from 1815 detailing the sale of the original 100 acres to Jehoikim Burget. Learn more about this land: Our primitive cabin nestled in the woods overlooking the Grand River is a nature-lover's paradise! Come canoe, fish, experience wine country, or unplug and just get away from it all. Please note: There is no running water or electricity at the site, but the cabin is generator-ready and there is an outhouse.  The cabin does have a wood burning stove for heat and simple cooking, however there is no running water or electricity.  That being said, the building is wired and has plugs and outlets and is generator-ready.  You provide your own generator and fuel.  We provide sheets, pillows, flashlights, a fire ring with cooking grate, charcoal grill (you provide the charcoal), access to firewood, and an outhouse with toilet paper.  Our 1/4 mile of Grand River frontage can be accessed right outside the cabin door via a quick hike down the steep hillside.  If hiking isn't preferred, then a quick two-minute drive will take you to the Harpersfield Covered Bridge Metropark - a favorite of local fishermen.  Bigger groups with tents are welcome, but will need to bring all supplies beyond what we provide for two guests.

Weekend Trip to Hemlock Hideaway
It is the perfect getaway with being far enough away but not to far from plenty to do. A small cozy cabin nestled in the woods with a back drop that is perfect for every sunrise to sunset. Geneva on the lake is only 15 mins away with plenty of stuff to make for a busy weekend or to stay put and light a fire, relax and unwind. The hosts are very accommodating and easy to work with. A great time for all people and their pets!

It was everything we expected and more. Lisa and her husband were very accommodating. Went above and beyond for us. We were very happy we stayed there. What an amazing location directly on the Grand River, down the street from the Harperfield Bridge and minutes from so many great wineries and restaurants. We would highly recommend.

This was our first stay with Hipcamp and Lawrence and Carolee's tiny home experience for us truly amazing not just for us but the dogs loved it equally as much! They are the epitome of hosts and I highly recommend this wonderful place to anyone lucky enough to stumble across it like we did. The grounds are very well maintained and the amenities that they put into this place are topshelf! Thank you for having us! And we hope to see you again!!

The Tiny Home is just as it is described. Absolutely beautiful and stocked very well for anything you may need during your stay. It is obvious that previous guests have left items to be enjoyed by others, as did I. The woods and location are fantastic. Outdoor Ramada was such a surprise, thoughtfully built and equipped as well with campfire pit, chairs, picnic table, electrical outlets and a wonderful roofed space. We will be back.

We absolutely loved it! My husband’s from UT. Camping is his thing, not mine…but this was awesome. Well stocked camp site. Everything you need is there….and clean with a white duvet (my personal fav). Clean bathrooms, showers, a beach, bike trail, walking trails, waterfalls nearby…truly a nice weekend adventure. We’ll come again!

Me and my family absolutely loved this tiny home!! Very cozy and clean with a beautiful view, it was everything we needed. Perfectly secluded but close enough to a store if you need one. They stocked the house up with things I didn’t think to bring which was so nice. Great place for kids if they love to be outdoors! My 4 year old had a blast here and can’t wait to come back!

Weekend Trip to Hemlock Hideaway
Let Hemlock Hideaway be whatever you need it to be. After a wonderful yet busy and sometimes chaotic summer, I needed a place to unwind, find solitude and relax for a day. I literally came and stripped away all the constraints of everyday life and bared myself to nature and the peace and silence of the cabin. Tucked away in a little nook, close enough to the owners of anything was needed but far enough away and secluded enough to find privacy and solitude. The truly rustic stay was everything I was hoping for. I enjoyed a warm, sunny day hidden in the shade. The morning offered a short rain that actually added to the effect and then cleared for a beautiful morning. I could have stayed that way for days. Hang out, breathe deep, release everything and truly be one with the surroundings. I cannot wait until I can come again.

My kids and I spent one night while we were passing through the area. We will definitely be back because the space was great. My kids and I loved the tiny house, which was beautifully designed to maximize every bit of space. The outdoor space would be great for having a cookout and fire with family. The house and grounds are well maintained and clean. The host was generous, friendly, and responsive by message. We made it up the driveway in a Ford Maverick without 4WD, but even if you couldn’t make it up the driveway, you could park at the bottom and walk up.

Great space for a private, rustic camping experience. Unfortunately our weekend away was hot, humid, and stormy but we were still able to enjoy the space. Too hot to stay in the cabin but plenty of space for two tents and a large canopy to stay dry. Hiked down the hill and the river was totally worth the climb! Woke every morning to the sound of eagles which brightened our day after stormy nights.
