An amazing and unique property in an incredible location! So pleased we chose to stay here, the pond was incredible for us and our children, we had a lot of fun! Lovely touches like muffins and cookies on arrival too. Would highly recommend and would love to stay here again if we are back on Vancouver Island!

It was a lovely property, with a lot of space to relax and enjoy time with family.

The Hidden Pond was the perfect property for our family of 6. Don’t be fooled by the photos of the space, because it is larger than the photos make it feel. The bunk room was super cute and the kids loved it! The master bedroom was massive and there are windows and doors galore letting in lots of natural light to the Master bedroom and main living area. The property has AC which was very welcoming with the hot weather that we experienced for our week there. The grounds were very well kept, which has to be a massive undertaking on its own! The pond was perfect, with a good mix of sun and shade throughout the day. Jo-Ann and Rob were fantastic hosts. Very welcoming and very quick at responding to any and all questions we had. 10/10 would recommend to anyone considering staying here. The kids are already saying that we NEED to come back next year, and I don’t disagree.

Overall the hosts were kind, the unit was clean and properly lovely. We did however find the description and photos misleading. We were 5-7 women staying together (7 first night, 5 the following night).for reference: all 7 of us viewed the listing and read through description, yet we were all surprised when we checked-in that the property wasn’t private (multiple units in same house, sharing amenities). Other things to note: -the unit is very home construction diy, as it’s one large house broken into many units. -spider problem. We killed 6-8 spiders the size of our palm, most definitely poisonous kind -noise issue: we were texted at 9pm on night one that there was a complaint on our noise level. We had no music playing and were a group of friends catching up and talking (probably loudly). If the unit isn’t sound proofed well enough for the amount of guests it’s allowed, why should we be punished for that? I found it inappropriate and very uncomfortable to get multiple texts and a call before the by-law 10pm quiet time. We were in bed sleeping by 10:15pm nightly, chill.-noise issue: master bedroom is very loud. we were woken up at 1am by very loud voices coming from upstairs, each night. There is also constant loud multiple dogs barking and running upstairs throughout day and night -hot tub was cloudy/ milky in colour. The smell was moldy and we didn’t feel comfortable using itFor the extremely premium price we paid, it was not worth the experience unfortunately
