For the modern bride looking for a stress free, intimate wedding, look no further! The Hidden Cottage is our newest elopement venue. Tucked away behind the Hawthorn House, The Hidden Cottage perfectly captures the air of mystery and romance that often surrounds the idea of elopement. Designed for the couple looking to simplify their ceremony and allow space to remember what makes getting married so special; the love between two partners. Follow your ceremony for 2-8 guests with a private lunch or dinner outdoors, in Hawthorn or in our restaurant. Or, select from one of the many other elopement options on the property.

About The Hawthorn Estate
A Destination Wedding Experience
Nestled in Charles Town, West Virginia, and just minutes from Harper’s Ferry, Hillbrook Inn’s Hawthorn Estate is located on land that was part of George Washington’s original land purchase. Washington himself lived at “Rock Hall” or the “Bullskin Plantation” about 200 yards west of the property. Today, the charming venue hosts destination weddings, elopements, microweddings and grand weddings that want exclusive use of the property. Whether you are planning an intimate elopement or a larger affair, this Jefferson County gem can set the scene for the wedding you have always envisaged. Far removed from the hustle and bustle of city life, it evokes a peaceful vibe perfect for romantic occasions. There are several options for your ceremony, including the Hidden Cottage, the Secret Garden, and many more. A large tent can be set up adjacent to the property for your reception.
*Please note we can only accommodate weddings of 30 guests or less during our high season (late September through early November) unless all 19 guest rooms are also reserved by your party.
