Everything we needed to cook and we enjoyed the warm welcome with a bottle of wine & chocolate. The deck was my favorite part, plenty of room and comfortable patio furniture, our puppy loved the plush woods and the small trail to a picnic area. You definitely need a vehicle to climb ruff terrain, steep hills, and sharp turns. Highly recommend for a weekend getaway, thank you Matt and Chris! ##### xcxc v.

Jul 24, 2025 Liked: Check-in, communication Disliked: Location, listing accuracy The road to the cabin is so steep when it rains you cannot access the cabin. When I tried to walk up the road I could barely do it without slipping. Do yourself a favor find another cabin. I am an engineer who designs pavement sections for roads. That road is too steep for asphalt should have stayed a gravel road. ##### Kerry C. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Will L.

The cabin feels like a private mountain retreat just minutes away from Blowing Rock. We loved spending time on the deck, taking in the beautiful views and relaxing in the hot tub, which also offers fantastic scenery. Cozying up in the den by the gas logs was another highlight of our visit. Everything matched the listing perfectly, and we found all the amenities we needed. Be sure to read the "Welcome Book" since it contains a wealth of helpful information. We're already planning our return visit! ##### Will L.

It was very well appointed and had everything we needed. It is right off 321 just south of Blowing Rock. The view was spectacular - we faced west and could see several peaks, including Grandfather Mountain. Same view from the Living Room, Master Bedroom and Hot Tub. The drive from the main road up to the cabin includes gravel roads so I was glad we brought the SUV. Will gladly stay there again. ##### Susan G.

The Secret Shack was the perfect spot to disconnect for our anniversary trip. We spent the day hiking at Linville Falls so coming back to the beautiful mountain view and coziness of the fireplace was just what we needed. Waking up to the sunrise view of the mountains from the master bedroom bed is amazing! It was clean, plenty of towels, comfortable bedding and the instructions for everything were very easy to follow. We will be back! ##### Tabitha M.
