About this property
Sweet Suite 3 minutes to Dupont State Forest! Take a hike or bring your Bike!
The newest addition to our campground, this private site makes life simple and easy! Includes very comfy Queen size bed, well equipped kitchenette (including frig, microwave, infrared cooktop, sink and a nice bartop), cozy living area with wi-fi streaming tv; all these amenities and more make this the place to be before and after a hike or bike ride in nearby (3 miles) Dupont State Forest. This is a beautiful little room for your rest and relaxation. Step out onto the covered patio area and look down over the garden toward Crab Creek and the mountains beyond. Throw a burger or a steak on the provided gas grill! No longer does the "Hidden Treasure" share shower and porta-jon with the campground! Now fully self-contained with an addition including Separett composting toilet and re-tiled shower! We have done all we know to make this a comfortable and memorable stay for you. Every bit of our cozy bungalow is constructed from recycled, reclaimed and repurposed materials, and hand-made into a home-away-from-home just for you!
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

About the host
Hosted by Scott
This property has now been in the family for four generations. We have been SO BLESSED by the hundreds of gracious guests we have been privileged to host, both in our campground and our Hidden Treasure!
Why they chose this property
This little bungalow started out as a boat shed, 8 posts and a roof. My husband worked for many years as a carpenter, building homes in the area. He began salvaging materials headed for the landfill until one day, they came together as a woodworking shop which he utilized for several years. Then, one day, when he realized he had no time for his hobby, he transformed the "shop" into this lovely little bungalow! All recycled, reclaimed and repurposed materials and fixtures come together in this jewel of a luxurious "campsite" JUST FOR YOU! Very private and special hideaway.
What makes this property unique
We listen. YOU are the actual "Hidden Treasure". The property has evolved, and continues to evolve, because of your praise AND your helpful suggestions. YOU count. YOU matter. We thank YOU!
