The energy was absolutely electric for yesterday's fall wedding at Hidden Acres Mountain Camping! Tucked away in the heart of these mountains, the forest came alive with a brilliant canopy of autumn gold and rustic crimson. Guests celebrated surrounded by crisp mountain breezes and the quiet song of the creek. It was the perfect blend of high-spirited celebration and serene wilderness—a truly lively and unforgettable autumn day to kick off a permanent union together.

We want to extend a massive thank you to the new Mr. & Mrs. Dietrich for choosing our covered bridge to host their beautiful wedding day. Cheers to a lifetime of love and adventure!

🍂🏕️🍁 Just a few more chances to sleep outside before the 2026 camping season comes to a close.

⏰ The clock is officially ticking! With November 1st right around the corner, camping season is in its final days. We are squeezing in every single campfire, mountain view, and cozy flannel morning of coffee with absolutely nowhere to be. One more weekend of saying, "We'll deal with that when we get home."

Who is out there with us this weekend? 🔥☕️⛺️👇

There is a distinct, grounding magic to finding a hidden waterfall tucked deep within a fall forest. The steady rush of the water sounds entirely different when the surrounding woods are quiet and cool. Standing by the creek, watching bright red and gold leaves swirl downstream in the crisp air, feels like stumbling onto nature's best-kept secret.

🍂🥾🍁 …..Don't miss out on the crunchiest weeks of the year! 💦🍂🏕️
