I moved here from San Francisco, to simplify my life, and accomplish my dreams. The Tiny house was designed and built by architect, Jesse Plaster. It's a unique cozy loft style design, set back in the woods on our property. It's purposely placed next to a creek, with a nice stone fire ring to really enjoy the outdoors. In the cold months, it's heated by a wood burning stove. Also next to the house are logging roads that allow you to hike the Ripshin Mountains. The Yadkin River is near by, and so is Boone and Blowing Rock. If you like mountain biking, bring your bike to ride Kerr Scott, or Zacks Fork trails. Also, check out the workshops at Pattersonschoolfoundation.org They offer sustainable living classes such as cheese making, mushroom foraging, blacksmithing, soap making, kimchi making, etc... Also ask about our private Yoga sessions. Last but not least, there is a wood burning private sauna that your able to reserve. Come enjoy our Happy Valley!

It's $10 for additional head count per night. There is plenty of room to pitch multiple tents, or park an RV. Furry friends are welcome as well, we only ask that you pay $30 for the extra time it takes to clean. The open loft provides a falling hazard for young ones. Because of that, we do not allow children under the age of 10 to climb the ladder or sleep upstairs. Cooking pots, pans, utensils are supplied, along with paper products and linens. There are two burners in the kitchen, a toaster oven, coffee maker, and a small smokey Joe charcoal grill. The Yadkin River is near by, and so is Boone and Blowing Rock.

The tiny house campsite is a favorite among visitors, praised for its cozy and well-equipped accommodations. Guests appreciate the proximity to nature, highlighted by peaceful streams and scenic hiking trails. The hosts, Angela and Jesse, are noted for their thoughtful touches, including a welcoming atmosphere for both humans and dogs, with farm animals adding to the charm. While most enjoy the secluded feel, a few mention the proximity to the owner's home, though it doesn't detract from the overall experience.

I loved my time at the tiny house. It was cozy, clean, quiet, and stocked with everything I needed. The sauna was an incredible add-on and the stream was so peaceful. I highly recommend staying here.

Tiny house big personality

Angela and Jesse have built such a beautiful home and sanctuary for some amazing animals, including the sweetest duo Moonpie and Ziggy. Their property is a paradise for dogs, with rolling hills, numerous trails, and a lovely river for splashing and swimming. The tiny house itself was better appointed than 80% of the hotels we’ve stayed in. Just pack food and clothes - they’ve got the rest covered! Make sure you leave time in the itinerary to check out their restaurant Happy Valley Filling Station, for some delicious wood fired pizza, extensive beer menu, and the friendliest community vibes. We can’t wait to be back!

They’ve got it all!

Amazing place! Exceeded our expectations, they had anything you could need covered. Our dog loved playing with the host pups, there is an amazing water fall hike right outside the door, sauna was the best add on, just all around perfect. Plus great wifi, comfy beds, cozy wood stove, games book & puzzles so you can be as connected or disconnected as you like. We will definitely be back, 10/10!

With kids

The tiny house was very cute and cozy and there is plenty of space for additional tents. It's situated on a really beautiful property. The owners house is close by. It was really nice to have access to a small kitchen and bathroom. The house is tiny but well thought out and has everything you need.

Glamping in a tiny paradise w/ dog

A lovely getaway, in the cutest tiny cabin. All the basics and then some are provided and presented in a lovely way. Angie clearly has a love for wood burning stoves with her wood burning pizza place, the sauna, and the cabin and I have to say after this trip I'm a fan as well! Loved the sauna and my dogs reactions to the cow and donkey.

Delightful stay

We loved our stay! It was less isolated than expected as it's just a hop and a skip away from the hosts house but a delight nonetheless! We are looking forward to our next stay! We will bring some carrot treats for Moon pie and Ziggy on our next drive up 🥕

GREAT ESCAPE!

With pets

Absolutely beautiful property!! Angela's Tiny Home was PERFECT for our weekend getaway from the city. If you’re seeking a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle, look no further. We left feeling rejuvenated, grateful, and already planning our next visit. We HAVE to see Moonpie again!

Sweet Tiny House in the Woods

The trees, the stream, and the nearby waterfall make this a beautiful spot to escape. The house is tiny but super functional. We enjoyed our time. Thank you!!!

Every moment of this stay was perfect. The tiny house was cozy and well thought out. There is intention in every detail. The location is straight out of a fairy tale, with a babbling brook, grassy meadow and thick mossy forest. This filled my cup and made my inner child come alive. The kitchen is perfect for cooking all your meals in. (It’s in the woods so expect plenty of bugs. Bring bug spray and do regular tick checks. While the bedding is cozy it’s pretty thick for warm summer nights. I’d recommend bringing a fan and light blanket for night time. )

Perfect Isolation

This is a great getaway. The main house is nearby, but it is beautiful and only adds to the view. The stream, the animals, and miles of great hiking right on the property. I never saw another human. At 6'4", I still fit comfortably into the loft bed (but sharing it would not be an option, and it wouldn't be ideal for someone who makes frequent restroom trips in the middle of the night.) The wood stove had the whole tiny house warm and cozy in short order on a 30-degree morning. Angela and Jesse thought of everything. I would definitely recommend.

My wife and I absolutely loved staying at Angela’s place! Instructions for arrival were clear from the beginning and the property was even more beautiful than we imagined. We brought our 6 month old puppy as well as our 8 year old dog and they both probably had even more fun than us. You’re surrounded by so much private land so having the dogs off leash to sniff and explore all they want was a breeze. They even got to enjoy playing in the creek right outside the tiny house. We visited their cow and donkey and got to feed them some snacks which was so much fun. They also own the cutest lil brewery/pizza spot 5 mins up the road that had some of the best beer and pizza I’ve had in a while. I can’t recommend this spot enough for a quaint little weekend getaway. We will definitely be back!

Serene slice of heaven!!!

This little peice of paradise was just perfect and absolutely WONDERFUL!!! There is everything you need to get away from the city and just reset!! Angela was wonderful!! And she owns the Happy Valley Filling Station!!! There are pots and pans...silverware and even a coffee pot but only a toaster oven. There is a stream going thru the property so if you open the windows, you can hear it. Go and see the waterfall!! It did not disappoint. Over the bridge and thru the woods up the little path thru the field. There is board games and some books to read. The ladder is a little steep but tolerable!!! The bed is very comfortable. There is a queen sized bed at one end of the house and a twin bed at the other end at the top of the ladder. Ziggy(donkey) and Moonpie(cow) were the sweetest. This was the coolest little place ever!! Definitely 5 stars with no complaints!!!

Cozy little cabin in the woods

With pets

We loved the tiny cabin and the surrounding farmland. The babbling brook and the clear views to the stars were especially memorable. The cabin is well-appointed and has just about anything you would need. The wood-burning stove kept us warm at night. The host was very responsive with an issue on the first night. The cabin is tucked away but within an hour’s drive from many towns and local businesses. We would love to visit again in the future.

So unique and super cute. We had a great time! The woodstove kept the house warm enough for us, even in December! Spent alot of time around the firepit outside and cooking dinners inside. Alot of hiking in the area to keep us busy during the day. Would definitely recommend for a romantic trip!

Charming 🥰❤️

Such a cute and charming little place. It sits in the woods and even though it’s close to the owners home it still gives you privacy. We picked this place because it’s located close to every place we wanted to visit but tucked far enough away to get us away from the busy life. ❤️

My family and I had an amazing stay at Angela’s property and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a quaint spot in the woods. The cabin has everything you need for an enjoyable stay, and the property is all around perfect. We loved the walking trails and the location in general. Highly recommend Angela’s brewery and pizza place as well! The food and service are top notch, and we went multiple times! If you’re on the fence, just book it, you won’t regret it!
