The Hidden House Bungalow Bed & Breakfast

As you come up the tree-covered driveway and see 'The Hidden House', you'll feel a lot like Hansel & Gretel. Some call it magical, others call it enchanting. You'll be at the top of the hill but nothing tops the peace and tranquility. It's the perfect get away.

The cozy 700sq ft single-story Bungalow is only 10 minutes off I-5. It was built in the 70's as a get-a-way in the woods. It boasts a few recent updates while holding a lot of original character. The main house was added in the 90's, but the Bungalow is still very private. So quiet that you may never see or hear the owners in the main house, and they may never see or hear you.

The reviews don't lie; the Bungalow has everything, and that means everything you might need for a comfortable stay... especially the high-quality Cal-King bed... who doesn't need a great night sleep?! The kitchen is nicely stocked with coffee, condaments, spices and snacks. In the morning you can make gluten-free buttermilk pancakes and eggs for breakfast. AJ’s special pancake mix, fresh eggs, real butter, and maple syrup provided.

Gaze at the wildlife from your swing on the covered back patio, or the hammock on the side porch. There's also a private table behind the bungalow to take in the surrounding views, and watch the chickens in their atrium.

Light the log in the wood stove for a cozy fire and snuggle up to a good movie, book, or board game.

The bungalow is the perfect place to unplug from the world. No cable TV, only good movies, games, and books. No need to worry if the slow-life isn't for you, Starlink gives enough signal to post your bungalow vacation on social media, and the wifi calling works good too.

If comfort, cleanliness and having all your needs met is important to you, then you'll love the Bungalow. Come ready to relax and rejuvenate!
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned vacation home, which features a fireplace. There's a private patio. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected, and a DVD player is provided for your entertainment.
Take in the views from a garden.
A complimentary breakfast is included.
Guests will find features like internet access, onsite parking, and a car charging station.
A complimentary breakfast is offered.

Beautiful comfortable place to vacation
Bungalow was beautiful, well stocked, and in a quiet area. The bed was extremely comfortable. We enjoyed the chickens and the breakfast was delicious! Easy drive to Mt St Helens and Astoria Oregon which were both on our list of things to do. Thank you AJ for the quick response to our messages and for offering such a nice place to stay.

A Great Stay
We had a wonderful stay at the Hidden House. The suite is beautifully decorated with many lovely features. The kitchen is very well laid out and has all the features needed to have a gourmet meal. The owner left us many little extras including fresh eggs, real cream and pancake mix ready to use. The house is as described in the listing if not better when you actually see it. The location is beautiful and very quiet. Would definitely recommend and look forward to returning again. Andy & Karen

Perfect hidden getaway!
I wish I could give this place 20 stars. My husband and I stayed overnight for a quick and quiet getaway for our anniversary. Communication with the host was incredible and they were so friendly. The morning pancakes were literally to die for!! It was stormy outside during our stay and it was so relaxing to just hang out and choose movies to watch and games to play from their collection! We would absolutely stay here again.

Lovely stay
Easy arrival and minimal check out obligations. The property is secluded and peaceful. We took advantage of the offer of coffee, eggs, and leftover non perishable foods in the kitchen so we didn’t need to go out for food. Lovely chickens in the back yard coop. Hot water ran out or got a little cool during bathing. Nice place to stay and I’d return when in the area.

Lovely quiet stay with yummy breakfast
We had a lovely stay at AJ’s place. The space is extremely clean, with a very comfortable King bed, and all the amenities you’ll need without ever leaving the property. In the kitchen you’ll find plenty of real cookware, cast iron skillet, utensils, and dish ware (all in great condition), as well as the usual condiments and then some. Although we brought dinner with us prior to arrival, there are available food items in the freezer and cupboard from which you could make your own meal, so no need for traipsing into town for dinner. Especially treat worthy, our hostess delivered fresh pancake batter (gluten free) on check-in, which we consumed entirely the next morning, along with fresh eggs provided from the backyard chicken coop. The A/C was much welcome during our stay given the high temps outside. Lots of bathroom amenities, too, with a washer and dryer. The host provided clear instructions on how to find the spot, which was well marked and easy to find. The road up to the rental is one-lane in some spots, so be alert to occasional oncoming traffic. We loved the quiet and solitude of our rental, and appreciated the kindness of our host on check-in, who otherwise remained out of sight and respected our privacy. We recommend!

Lovely getaway
Had a great stay here after exploring Mount St. Helens. AJ did a great job with directions to the house; there are some steep and windy roads, so getting there in the daylight is a good idea. The house itself was incredibly comfortable and well decked-out; the perfect spot to relax. We enjoyed saying hello to the chickens! Excellent little hideaway.

Peaceful Location
The Bungalow is perfectly located to explore the Mount St. Helens area. Although attached to the main house it is very private and offers separate outdoor seating to relax and enjoy the peaceful scenery. Watching the chickens in their atrium is also quite entertaining! The Bungalow is well stocked with everything needed for a comfortable stay. The egg and pancake breakfast was an added treat! Highly recommend and would not hesitate to stay again.

This bungalow is so well appointed, clean, cozy, comfortable - very thoughtfully put together. I visited solo as I came to ride the Tour de Blast, a cycling adventure riding up Mt St Helens. It was a perfect base for that. But know I see it as a perfect base for a multi day visit to Mt St Helens for hiking and cycling. I can see returning to the bungalow after a full and active day to enjoy a hot shower, use the washer dryer for clothes, and use the fantastic kitchen to cook some hearty food. Then it’s popcorn and a movie and sleep like a baby, it’s so quiet and relaxing. I’m sitting here thinking up reasons to go back. Can’t wait to do so. Thank you to hosts Sandy and AJ for a wonderful gem. Yay!

Perfect for visiting Mt. Rainier & St. Helen's NPs
Ours was a 2-night stay in this lovely 1 bdrm very private bungalow approx 6 miles outside of Castle Rock. Directions were excellent; up a steep hill on a one lane road that passes another home, so suggest time your initial arrival in the daylight. Hosts were outstanding and bungalow very well equipped! Only regret our time was focused on the national parks and thus we were not able to enjoy the outdoor places for relaxing.

Sweet Retreat
This place is just as pictured. Cozy living space and nicely designed kitchen. Lots of coffee choices, and the fresh eggs were a wonderful treat. It was fun to watch the baby bunnies and chickens. It's a very peaceful location so easy to unplug, but also close enough that you can grab whatever essentials you might need. If time allows, try Roland Winery nearby for some live music, good wine, and good food. The drive to visit Mount St. Helens monument was beautiful. AJ is a great host too! Would recommend for anyone wanting a peaceful escape.

Wonderful stay!
The bungalow was so comfortable, it’s like a home-away-from home! Everything we could even think we might need, there it was. We enjoyed a night away (without kids!) so we celebrated with a silly movie from the dvd collection and a solid night’s sleep! Very quiet and remote. We made fresh eggs for breakfast in the morning, which we really appreciated. Visited the chickens and sipped a cup of tea on the porch swing. Every aspect was relaxing. We will surely visit again! Thanks AJ!
