Eppalock Hilltop Retreat was everything we hoped for and more! The tiny home has been thoughtfully put together, is well designed and has everything you need; and the bed is unbelievably comfortable! ...The location is perfect if felt like we were in another country with it's moss covered boulders and unbelievable views, and the bath and chimnea were perfect outdoor additions. The extra wood fired hot tub was an unforgettable experience and was still warm in the morning for an epic sunrise soak! Matt was an amazing host, super friendly and accommodating. We would highly recommend this place to anyone!
