Charming lower level, daylight basement apartment with everything we needed. Clean and peaceful. The owners were attentive and courteous. Melodious creek and unique windchimes created an immediate relaxing environment upon arrival. We spent most of our time outdoors. There were welcoming kitties who kept us company while outside. Happy to stay again.
It was great for what we wanted but my only complaint was tha there was no light over the sink in the bathroom and couldnât see to apply makeup. We were served delicious breakfast pastry on our last morning and enjoyed eating it outside on the patio.
We had a fabulous stay at the Hidden Secret. It was close enough to everything we wanted to do. Enjoyed the outdoor area and the coziness of the suite. We look forward to coming back again soon.
We had a lovely couples getaway. This place is the perfect hideaway and we loved using the fireplace. The little creek is a short walk from the house and we got the blessing of seeing a few inches of snow while we were here. It was beautiful. I would love to stay again in the future!
The property itself was beautiful and quiet. The unit was a little tight for us older adults to move around, not much room. Also the bed for us was just not comfortable.We also did not see anywhere online that the unit did not have air. For us older adults, it just did not work.
This place was so well done, everything we needed. The fireplace was such a treat, and very easy to use. I was very impressed with how the owner did this apartment, deer on the property, rushing creek sounds below. Really enjoyed my stay!
Wonderful spot for a quiet get away. This VRBO was convenient to several local towns and restaurants for shopping, food, and entertainment. The accommodations were fabulous and the owners were wonderful hosts. The natural areas of the property were beautiful and the views were great.
Very cozy and quiet with a beautiful view. The cat visitor was a nice touch and super cute. We had a great stay and Jefferson state park is right down the road with an amazing Mountain View. Would definitely stay again for a weekend getaway.
We had a wonderful stay at Hidden Secret. Everything was as described and the studio was super clean. Itâs perfect for a couple :) The hosts were very welcoming and responded quickly to any questions we had. The nature is absolutely beautiful and the sound of water is so soothing and relaxing. We enjoyed having breakfast on the patio despite it being cold :)
Small and cozy quarters.
Beautiful view.
Sound of stream and birds.
Cool air when we needed it the most.
Beautiful flowers, butterflies, and hummingbirds.
Wonderful hosts !
We spent the weekend at your wonderful rental once again and had a wonderful time. Everything was clean and comfortable. I absolutely love the wind chimes. We sat on the bench outside as the sun was setting Friday Night and listened to the creek and the wind chimes. So relaxing.
We really enjoyed our time there. Rich and Pat were great hosts. Thanks so much for the croissants. We look forward to the next time we go to mountains. Great location. Short drive to anything in the area. Again, thanks so much for your hospitality.

The suite is immaculate! The property is very gorgeous with all tree, the sound of the running creek & the wind chimes. The bench down at the creek is a perfect touch for the peaceful down time. Location is great to get to the blue ridge parkway. The hosts are very sweet & personable & the fresh home made croissants are the perfect end to a wonderful long weekend away.
We chose this listing for my brothers visit. Our home is about 10 minutes away. We needed a place for overflow guests visiting here for the 41st Annual New River Canoe Race. This property was perfect. My brother was comfortable and we would choose this property again, especially with its proximity to both West Jefferson and Boone.
I needed some place to be alone for a few days and this was the perfect place. Having Pat and Richard upstairs was comforting. They never bothered me but being alone in the mountains would have been a bit scary for me.
