Partner With Us to Build Unique Micro Resorts

At Hidden Horizons, we’re building immersive, design-driven micro resorts in nature-rich destinations—and partnering with a small group of hands-on capital partners to make it happen, project by project.

Our Vision

🏕️ Creating Boutique Micro Resorts for Modern Travelers

Hidden Horizons Vacation Rentals develops and operates unique short term rental micro resorts—small collections of 3 to 10 intentionally designed short-term rental units on a single property. Think cozy cabins, luxury domes, and designer tiny homes, paired with firepits, plunge tubs, walking trails, and curated communal spaces.

We believe travelers are seeking more than just a place to stay—they want connection, atmosphere, and memorable design. That’s what we build.

Our capital partners co-own these projects alongside us, with a seat at the table throughout planning, development, launch, and operations.

💡 Why Capital Partners Work With Us


🏞️ Experience-First Real Estate
Each micro resort is built in a destination chosen for its natural beauty, year-round appeal, and strong short-term rental regulations. Our properties blend indoor comfort with outdoor immersion.

🏗️ Fully Managed Execution
We handle everything: land acquisition, permitting, site prep, design, development, furnishing, listing setup, marketing, guest operations, and property management.

🤝 Aligned, Transparent Partnerships
You’re not a passive investor—you’re a co-owner. Every project is structured with clearly defined roles, responsibilities, and decision rights through a customized Joint Venture or Co-Ownership Agreement.

📍 No Blind Pools or Funds
You’re involved in a specific property from day one. We don’t raise capital for a fund. Each partnership is tied to a real project, with a real plan, and a shared vision.

 
🧱 What the Partnership Looks Like


While details vary by project, most capital partnerships follow this framework:

1. You co-own the project entity (typically an LLC)
2. Your name is on the Operating Agreement
3. You review the full development plan and budget before committing
4. You have meaningful decision-making authority on major items
5. We oversee day-to-day development and management
6. You receive regular updates, financials, and performance reports
7. All projects are governed by a signed Joint Venture Agreement created in partnership with our legal counsel and yours.

 
👥 Who We Partner With


We’re looking for individuals or entities who:

1. Want direct ownership in one-of-a-kind short-term rental projects
2. Value transparency, structure, and strategic thinking
3. Prefer a hands-off operational role but a hands-on ownership role
4. Have capital available to deploy toward one or more specific deals
5. Share our appreciation for elevated design, nature-driven experiences, and long-term real estate value
6. We typically bring on less than 10 capital partners per project to ensure alignment and clarity.
