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.

Adair Spring break trip
We arrived in the pouring rain and yet Joanne was outside to welcome us and ensure we knew where to park to best suit the front door access. We were thrilled when we walked in, the photos didn’t do the property justice as it was so much better than we had imagined it was going to be. Our coffee and baileys on the couch overlooking the wooded backyard quickly became a morning ritual - it was such a peaceful way to start our day! The muffins, cookies, fruit and juice was an added touch as were the other little things that made us feel very comfortable in our ‘home away from home’. We would really love to go back in the summer months to utilize the beautiful pond; it was very inviting. Thank you Robert and Joanne for giving us a place to ‘break up with stress’, now we start dreaming until next time.

Excellent couple retreat
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 :)

Beautiful property, excellent hosts!
I recently stayed in the Gong Suite for three nights, and it was a wonderful experience. The room was clean and very comfortable, and the hosts were friendly and helpful. The highlights for me were the pond and nature trails, which provided ample places for me to walk and exercise my 5-year-old pup. If you are in the Metchosin area, Hidden Pond is the place to stay. I definitely am planning to return next year!

Spacious hideaway!
This property is a neat gem, situated a 15 minute drive from Goldstream Park in a quiet rural location. Great hosts, willing to accomodate our rescue dog and our funky schedule over the weekend. The bed was really comfy and we had everything we needed and more. This accomodation is well outfitted with all you could wish for. Thank you Jo-Ann & Rob for the comfy stay!
