Ranked #1 Romantic Glamping Getaway in USA for 2025 by Hipcamp!
Escape to the serene beauty of the Blue Ridge Mountains at our unique retreat in Bakersville, NC. Nestled on over 60 private acres amid some of the highest peaks east of the Mississippi—including nearby Mount Mitchell (6,684 ft)—our five distinctive arched cabins offer the perfect blend of modern comfort, privacy, and breathtaking views.
Each fully equipped cabin is a cozy tiny home featuring:
A comfortable queen bedroom
Private full bathroom with shower
Well-appointed kitchenette (sink, microwave, mini-fridge, coffee maker, and essentials)
Spacious living area with sofa and Roku smart TV
Step outside to your private deck with a bubbling hot tub—ideal for stargazing (we are a dark-sky retreat!) or soaking in panoramic mountain vistas. Gather around your personal campfire pit (firewood provided) for cozy evenings under the clear Appalachian skies. Cabins are thoughtfully spaced for romantic seclusion while close enough to share the magic with friends or family.
Adventure awaits right on the property with miles of private hiking trails winding through forested ridges and scenic overlooks. As local hiking experts, we're passionate about guiding you to the best trails—easy strolls, moderate paths, or challenging hikes reaching elevations over 6,000 feet on the iconic Appalachian Trail (just minutes away at Carver's Gap or Roan Mountain).
Explore nearby gems like the sparkling North Toe River for fishing or tubing, world-famous Mitchell County gem mines, and the stunning Roan Mountain balds (famous for June rhododendron blooms). Our historic land adds a touch of intrigue—once part of the area's colorful past.
Whether you're seeking a romantic getaway, outdoor adventure, or peaceful relaxation, our arched cabins provide an unforgettable mountain escape. Book your slice of Blue Ridge paradise today!

It was absolutely beautiful! Very secluded, very steep driveway but I literally drove my Toyota Camry up and down with no problem, the fear just came from within. Lol The host was very pleasant to speak with and always immediately responded back to me within minutes. I recommend this spot for seclusion, animals, creekside, romantic get away!!! It was perfect! Also you will get your exercise in going up and down the stairs but Lord did I need it!!! Lol 😆 we WILL be back

We loved staying at the sight. Enjoyed the privacy and the view, and the hot tub. This was in spite of Mother Nature giving us rain for 3 days. Kevin went out of his way to provide us with dry wood; we just couldn't use it. The facility was clean, great condition. It was high-end and we plan to return at another time. Thanks!

Weekend Trip to Romantic, hot tub, pet friendly
Fantastic stay! Kevin was super kind and helpful. The property is absolutely beautiful, and the stay is well worth the price
Definitely saw some ticks so beware of that! Especially if you’re from an area where you aren’t used to them.

The stay was amazing! The cabin was the perfect size for us and the dogs! The weather was absolutely beautiful which allows us to go hiking at some nearby trails. The cabin was equipped with anything we could have needed and more. We loved the hot tub and fire pit and were able to see the stars from each spot.
Definitely will be booking a stay in the Fall.
Kevin the host was super nice and accommodating, got to chat with him on our last day before we left. Looking forward to our next stay!!

Kevin was a fantastic host, super responsive & gave us perfect details of everything! Very quick to reply. The property is great, with many places to hike. The cabin kept us warm & toasty. The only thing I would recommend is the tv mount be adjustable, it’s not a great angle to watch from the couch. But hey, you don’t go to sit & watch the TV! Beautiful views, would recommend to everyone, especially great for dogs that like to hike with their families!
