A hitch assembly is proved with a retractable hitch mount and a retractable safety chain connector, both of which retract to provide a hitch assembly which conforms substantially to the contour of the towing vehicle body when the hitch assembly is not in use. The hitch mount is configured for retractable extension from a hitch base plate, providing a seat for a matching trailer mount. The safety chain connector is configured for retractable extension from the base plate, providing a seat for a trailer-connected safety chain. The hitch base plate attaches to the towing vehicle body, defining a support surface which is contoured substantially similar to the body contour of the towing vehicle. When the hitch mount and safety chain connector are retracted, the hitch assembly conforms generally to the body contour of the towing vehicle, minimizing any interference with the vehicle's use.
