About this property

Hobbit Hideaway - Do Something Different!

  • Trek back from Mordor and retire to a full kitchen, AC/heat, queen bed, pullout couch w/ new memory foam pad, washer/dryer, shower and more. Enjoy the patio where you can be the lord of the fire ring, grill PO-TAY-TOES, enjoy the swing, hammock, horseshoes, axe throwing, games and more.

A Perfect Few Days Away!

My husband and I had a wonderful time spending a few days in the dome! It is in a great location- about ten minutes from Traveler's Rest, 30-45 minutes from great hiking spots, and 45 minutes from downtown Greenville. The property felt secluded, and we enjoyed making use of all the amenities. We were able to bring our two dogs without issue! Definitely will be staying here again!

Awesome place

This place is very unique for sure. Inside is snug but worked well for our family of 4. The outside is very nice with the fire pit and swing and built in games. We thoroughly enjoyed it and would definitely recommend you try it out.

Fantastic getaway!

Although we were only at the hobbit home for less than 24 hours, we made the best of it! We stopped here on our travels back to Michigan, from spring break. It was so clean and well kept. Our teenage boys really enjoyed the outdoor activities, especially the axe throwing and ring toss. We would absolutely stay her again! Thank you!!

Peace and Beautiful Hikes

Loved my stay at the Hobbit Hideaway. Jacob was very helpful in answering my questions. The place was so cute and peaceful with a yard to roam in with my dogs and so many terrific hikes less than 30 minutes away. Would highly recommend for a peaceful getaway.

AMAZING!!! We had a wonderful time. It was a lovely place inside but the outside space was incredible! The fire pit area, swing, hammock with lights all around was the place we spent hours into the night telling stories and laughing together! Can’t wait to go back!

Cute quiet place

The place is quiet and comfortable. We didn’t use the kitchen but the bed was comfy and everything was clean. The host was incredibly responsive and helpful. We weren’t there long so we didn’t get down to the creek or enjoy the nice outside setup. The only downside is there are some trailers and homes in the area that have seen better days but we never felt unsafe.

Fun time at Hobbit Hideaway

Me, my mom, and our 2 dogs stayed here. The house is quaint and has everything you need. Very peaceful! Super clean and the futon bed was comfy. The backyard is awesome. My dogs loved being able to sniff and explore. We enjoyed playing horseshoes and the swing was awesome. It is close to alot of fun outdoor activities, like state parks, and we will be booking again next year during apple season!!

Hidden Getaway

This property was a little hidden gem, tucked away from major highways and lots of cars, but it wasn't too far from plenty of things to do in Traveler's Rest and Greenville. The inside of the dome was comfortable and quiet, and the host really thought of everything you could possibly need. The host was very accommodating and prompt when answering questions, and provided very detailed information about the property, so it was super easy to find the property, get inside, log into wifi, turn on lights, etc. Overall, the dome and the property were great! Wish we could've stayed longer, but we will certainly be back!

Tucked Away Fun

Stopped here as a midpoint overnight stay for a road-trip. As soon as we arrived, we got really excited. The home itself is very cute and unique. Space is small but literally everything you need to be comfortable (black out curtains if you needed them, paper plates, extra blankets). Also have to compliment the cleanliness. Out of the many places I’ve stayed at using VRBO this was hands down the cleanest place I’ve stayed out (thank you). Now on the outside…it is set up to hang out and have a good time. Firewood was set up for a first fire (which we leveraged), a bench swing, a hammock, horse shoe, and a couple of other outdoor games to keep the good times going. My dogs had a great time exploring the area—which is quiet. The listing title captures what awaits you, a Hobbit Hideaway.
