Beautiful Location - quiet area. Not full home

I stayed here with my Mom, kids, brother and his wife. The suite was beautiful, and we had access to their pond and hot tub. I assumed it would be the full home because I booked through VRBO, but the home owners live upstairs. I slept in the bunk bed room with my kids, but my Mom said it was really loud in her room with people walking around upstairs in the evening and morning. Otherwise stunning location and home.

Beautiful retreat

We stayed here for a work retreat so we didn't fully use all of the amenities. Nonetheless, it was a beautiful place to be.The directions were clear to get to the house. The road off the highway has barely any street lights. So when it rains, drive slower as it is really dark and somewhat windy.The house was fully stocked and then some. The hosts provided a lot of extras (especially the kitchen) that weren't in the listing so in some ways, we overpacked. Next time, we'll make sure to email first and ask. Otherwise, it is a very roomy, yet cozy house. It can get a little noisy with the footsteps and pets from upstairs. It was fine for us but if you are a light sleeper, be prepared. That's about the only thing we can think of that could be an issue. Otherwise, the house is perfect. We would love to come back in the future.

Fun property with lots to do!

My family of 8 from Victoria had a staycation just before Christmas. Even though it was rainy we still enjoyed the pond area and trails. A short drive to groceries and Witty’s Lagoon. We didn’t get to make full use of the fire pit or hot tub but imagine it would be great in good weather.Bedding in the side room was ok enough for two nights and the kitchen had everything we needed. The pantry had lots of basic spices and cooking supplies. They had a small selection of board games and enough seating for all of us to watch movies comfortably.Though it wasn’t a concern for us, the owner/people on the other side of the wall dog could be heard in the evening - maybe other people would mind more.Speaking of, Jo-Ann was very welcoming, answered questions quickly, and overall made us feel comfortable staying at their place. They seem to have a good operation!

Comfortable and huge suite

The suite is incredibly clean and comfortable. The bedrooms are huge with multiple seating options and the unit had everything we could possibly need. We were pleasantly surprised with a tray of baked goods and a full fruit bowl at check in. The host was great to deal with and answered our questions and concerns in a timely fashion. We did find the location a little remote, which would have been okay if the weather cooperated more. It rained quite hard for most of our stay so we ended up spending both days travelling into Victoria; about 40 minutes by car. Another thing to note is that the host lives upstairs and footsteps can be heard often; not recommended if you are a light sleeper as it was disruptive early in the morning.

Amazing thanksgiving weekend at Hidden Pond

We were a group of 7 friends in town for the Victoria Marathon. We stayed at Hidden Pond and although it was slightly out of town (about 35 mins from downtown Victoria) it was the perfect place to prep before and relax after. We loved the hottub and the relaxing outdoor furniture and large outdoor table where we had a big thanksgiving dinner after the rcae. Rob was super friendly and responsive and the place was huge, clean, and had so many lovely special touches!

OUR VISIT TO VICTORIA AND HIDDEN POND

Our stay was verry pleasurable. The facility was beyond our expectations. The drive to Hidden Pond from Victoria was not bad, takes you away from all the lights and sounds of the city to a quiet and peaceful location. Seven of us stayed and really enjoyed Hidden Pond. the beds were all very comfortable, the kitchen amenities were more than adequate, and the living room was spacious and very comfortable. All of us agreed this was a very good choice and highly recommend to any looking for clean and peaceful surroundings after a full day of being a tourist. My wife and I have been to Victoria five times now but this was the first visit for our daughter and son-in-law and three grandchildren. This was a visit that all will cherish for years to come and was made even more special by our stay at Hidden Pond.

The property was nice in the woods, the home was spacious and great for large group. Sadly we were awoken in the morning to owners dogs barking when the door opened. The dogs luckily were quite throughout the night. We wanted to use the hottub but it felt super weird as it was on the owners deck and their window was open. Owners were responsive and responded to our messages and responded promptly. We were unable to control the heat in the unit and had to keep messaging to turn up the heat, and were still cold having to wear jackets .suite.unfortunacoulddth

Wonderful property and house

We had an amazing and memorable stay at Hidden Pond. Jo-Ann was very thoughtful with all the little extras. The home was beautifully decorated and very warm and inviting. The pond area was so tranquil and lush. Our only regret was that it was too short of a stay. Thank you Jo-Ann for making it a memorable stay for a group of school friends celebrating our 60th birthday year.

Lovely property with plenty of comfortable relaxation space inside and out. The owners really tried to cover all our needs. The driveway and walkways are pretty steep, which can be expected on a hillside, so as long as you are prepared for that you will have a wonderful stay.

Fabulous Get-Away

We had a wonderful mini vacation at Hidden Pond. Our hosts were great at communicating with us, right from the time of our booking to responding to a few questions that we had and during our stay. The entire suite is really beautiful and you can see the care and attention that went into decorating it. They really thought of all the little details. We had such a great time swimming and floating on the pond and enjoyed our walks around the property. There is even (a very clean) porta-potty nearby to use so you don't have to walk all the way up the hill to use the washroom. We would bring our snacks and refreshments in a small cooler and stay down by the pond for hours, there is equal amounts of sun & shaded areas to enjoy. *The only thing we would add is that for future stays, it would be great to have a 12-cup coffee maker provided, as there was only a French press, and we really just wanted to press a button to brew, no fuss or muss! The hot tub was a short walk up a small hill through a little garden filled with blueberries and flowers. The hot tub fits 4 people comfortably with seating around the edge, & white fluffy robes are even provided. We will definitely be returning to this great place. Many thanks to our hosts!

Peaceful Retreat

We were so happy to have found this wonderful property. The house is beautiful and it has everything anyone needs to feel comfortable and at home. The pond was amazing and my teenage kids had a blast with the row boat and flamingo. I would recommend this property to anyone who is looking to get away and relax. The property owners were very nice and available since day one but we really didn’t need anything because they did such a great job making us feel welcome. The breakfast place they recommended was delicious so please ask them about it! Loved our stay.

Annual cousins summer vacation

Hidden Pond was an excellent choice for our summer vacation. The accommodations were exactly as pictured in the VRBO. We felt very comfortable and at home. It was peaceful and private. And the outdoor area was perfect for a group of 5 energetic children with a swimming pond, hot tub, and orchard to go exploring around. I highly recommend it!
