The Hidden Castle is located in an ideal location Appalachain State University is just 11 miles from our door. The quaint and highly rated Downtown Banner Elk is just 4 miles away. Grandfather Mountain State Park and the famous swinging bridge is just 8 miles from our door. The famous Blowing Rock (voted the best place to view fall colors) is just 17 miles from our door.

Being right off of Hwy 105 means that we have quick and easy access to every thing that the High Country has to offer. Our easy access and proximity to the highway does result in some road noise that some guests may notice.

The driveway is asphalt and accessible year round. Although, during winter weather, it is recommended to arrive in a vehicle that has 4x4 or is equipped with snow chains. When we have winter weather in the forecast, I do my best to communicate with guests to ensure proper preparation and have a safe and easy arrival.
