The Hideaway on Tacketts Shipping Container

The Hideaway is the perfect getaway for a cozy, private weekend for two! It is nestled in the mountains of Hurricane, WV. It has a serene view of the mountains and a fully stocked pond, ready for fishing. You will have the entire home to yourself, complete with a kitchen, living room, bathroom, and bedroom. On the deck there is a hot tub and a fire pit directly below. You will also have access to Meeks Mountain Trails, so bring your bikes and walking shoes!

Steps inside the front door, a kitchen providing an oven, stove, and fridge will greet you with basic cooking and baking needs. There is also a drip coffee pot available for your morning coffee. Moving to the living room, you will find a sofa and accent chair in front of a large windowed garage door boasting beautiful views of the scenery outside. There is also a 43 inch TV for your viewing pleasure. Moving to the full bathroom, you will find a standing shower where shampoo, conditioner, and body wash will be provided. The bathroom leads to the bedroom, which holds a full size bed and another 43 inch TV. Outdoor seating is available on the deck for four people along with a luxury spa for two to four people. Below the deck, you will find a fire pit with seating for four people as well.

There are two parking spots available. Four wheel drive vehicles are not a must, but preferred for easy access to The Hideaway. However, transportation is provided with guests who may be hesitant to drive their vehicle to the top of the hill, where The Hideaway resides.

My wife and I live on the property where The HideAway is, so we are always available for anything you may need.

You will be completely secluded with only the mountains and pond in view. Minutes away, the town of Hurricane awaits with its many restaurants and community activities. If you are visiting us during the summer, paddle boarding is available on the city reservoir through the Appalachian Boarding Company. Hurricane Valley Park is approximately one mile away where you can enjoy a wave pool, baseball field, soccer field, frisbee golf, and dog park. Some of our favorite local restaurants include Whiskey Taco, Baked Craft Wings, Fireside Grille, Belknap Dough Company, and Bridge Cafe and Bistro. Our go-to coffee shop is Drip on Main Street in Hurricane. While you’re there, make sure to swing by Peyton & Peppy Boutique for a new addition to your wardrobe. Lastly, if you’re looking for something sweet, Sweet Mama’s Bakery is the place to go. We are also conveniently located approximately thirty minutes from both cities of Charleston and Huntington where many more restaurants, shopping, and activities await you.

Private parking is available at The Hideaway.

A jon boat will be available to cruise around the fully stocked pond, so make sure to bring your fishing poles! Due to limited cell service, free wifi is provided.

Had a no kids get away weekend that was relaxing and refreshing. The drive up the hill without 4-wheel drive could be a little tricky. Would recommend staying here.

Horrible Place and owners don't care about there guests. DO NOT RENT OUT THIS PLACE.
Driveway to get up to the cabin you have put the peddle to the floor to get to the cabin. The land scaping is terrible. Dangerous steps to get to a fire pit. The fire pit was hanging over the edge and looked like it was going to fall into pond. Tried fishing and throwing out the provided fish food. Did not see one fish. Also every were around the lake was muddy because no man-made shore. Couldn't use boat because the boat was left in the pound half submerged. When we walked into the cabin, we read the list of rules we had to follow while there. One of the rules was you can't wear shoes in the cabin. The floors were dirty so we grabbed the swifter to clean it up. They charge a cleaning fee and we had to clean the mess. Also there rules pretty much required that we clean the place before you leave. So why do they charge a cleaning fee when they expect guests to clean up the cabin. The next day was rainy. When we got up we noticed that the floors where wet. Somehow a lot of moisture gets into the cabin. When I went outside to put my shoes on my shoe were soaked from the rain. They should provide a shoe wreck since you cannot wear shoes in the cabin. Later that day we tried to get into the hot tub but it wasn't working and there was no one to call after hours to come look at it. The next day again floors where wet when we woke up and my wife slipped. Someone to come look at the hot tub. When he came over to fix it. He told us that the tub went into sleep mode and that it happens all the time. So this time he decided to bypass and turn off the sleep mode so it would happen to anymore guests. I still don't get why they didn't do that in the first place before we got there. Later that night we decided to get food. When the food came we moved table in living room. Table leg apparently was broken and about crushed my foot. Also the AC in bedroom stopped working and it felt like we were sleeping in a Sona with all the moister in cabin. Our last day there again woke up to wet floors but this time we also woke up to a wet bed. The roof was leaking on bed. We got up to pack up and when I checked on the side of the bed there was BLACK MOLD all over the side of bed. We packed up and left and tried talking to the owners about our issues and they just ignored us. So now I wrote this review instead because owner won't even call us back. There were more issues but only little room to write. Go to Big Rock Cabins in ohio instead they treat customers right.

Beautiful, private get away
We really enjoyed our stay here! It was beautiful and secluded! The hot tub was clean, the bedroom was cozy, and the view of the woods and pond was beautiful. The home looked as it did in the photos. There were robes for the hot tub too, which was a nice addition!

Fun getaway
This property provides a fun getaway for a long weekend. Private location but also close to town for restaurants and such. Also close to Meeks Mountain Trails, which was a nice thing to do with the dog. The indoor/outdoor living setup with the garage door and the deck was nice too and made the lodging feel quite roomy.

Definitely a Favorite
Gorgeous, peaceful, private, fun fishing, enjoyed the hot tub and fire pit. The Garage door to the outside was a great experience we watched the deer eat along the mountain side. The container was very clean, comfortable and we didn’t need or want anything that wasn’t already there. I would definitely recommend and return for another stay in the future.

Overall Great Place to stay
The drive up to the place is tricky and you will need to get some momentum to make it up. The shower leaks so put a towel by the door in the bedroom against the wall closet to the shower to prevent a puddle from happening. Very peaceful getaway.

Perfect spot for a weekend getaway
Everything was so lovely. The setting made it easy to relax. There was a family who drove up on an ATV, which isn't a problem, just glad they drove up before we got in the hot-tub!

Amazing Getaway
Wonderful little oasis tucked away from it all, great place to unplug and reconnect! This tiny home will provide giant memories for you and your loved one/ones. Our family of 4 enjoyed our time here while our oldest attended WV All State Choir. It was nice to be able to come “home” to a quiet, clean, relaxing space. We really enjoyed the hot tub, making s’mores over the fire pit, and feeding the ducks! 10/10, we hope to be back! While in the area, we recommend checking out Whisky Taco; best tacos we’ve had in a long time! Our 7 and 9 year old were excited to try some of Sweet Momma’s treats. The local parks were nice as well.
