Wonderful stay
My wife and I just recently stayed at Hidden Pond for our 10th wedding anniversary. Everything was wonderful from check in to check out, our only regret was we had planned several activities in town and couldn’t spend more time on the property. If you get the opportunity, we highly recommend!!

Amazing getaway
We had so much fun at this great getaway. Our granddaughters swam, explored, picked and ate blueberries and blackberries, made homes for frogs. And in the evening when we were tired there was plenty of room for them to lounge and watch their favourite tv shows.

Wish we'd had more time!
It was such a lovely spot with so much to do and see, I wish I had more time to just relax and enjoy everything on the property! Our dog loved it just as much as we did! He got to be off leash and make new friends and explore so much without us having to worry. It was a lovely getaway! We'll definitely be back

Jo Ann and Rob were exceptional hosts. From the email exchanges prior to the stay, to making us feel welcome throughout, it was such a pleasure. Thank you for the treats and more importantly, treating our dogs like family. We look forward to many more Hidden Pond escapes!

Wonderful hosts and the privacy and peace we were looking for without having to venture far from the city. The room is even more spacious than it appears on the website, and the vista from the room is stunning. Highly recommend :)

It was so nice to be able to bring my dog somewhere where she could be free to explore and get her sniffer full. And it was pretty nice for us humans too. Very special place. But the host does not exagerate about the stairs and the hill down to the pond. . If you have

Wonderful Energy!
What an amazing stay! There were treats waiting for us and we were well cared for and welcomed by Bruce.The decor is uplifting, giving a positive energy - in large part to the incredible gong gracing the living space. There is plenty offered outside with a fire ring, spring fed pond, forest trails and a hot tub. What an awesome experience you offer your guests, thank you.
