Smoking Policy
Hidden Lake provides a smoke-free environment. Smoking is not permitted anywhere on the 12 acres, inside or out. Thank you for respecting our non-smoking policy.
Children
Our home best accommodates children 14 and older ... although infants and little ones, until they start walking, are absolutely welcome in the Mission Jacuzzi Suite.
Pets
Although we are pet lovers ourselves, we unfortunately are unable to accept pets due to having one of our own on site.
Green Policy
By popular request, we have added a Green Policy that simply states "We Will if You Will". Since everyone is different in this regard, especially when on vacation and wanting to forget about daily life for a few minutes, you can communicate your preferences to us by hanging up your towels if you would like to reuse them or leaving them on the floor in bathroom if you would like new ones. Similarly, if you would like your plastics, aluminum and glass recycled, please rinse and leave near the coffee service in your suite.
On our side, we are working to become "chemical free" on all of our cleaning agents. To this end, we make our own laundry soap and softner and we use more natural cleaners such as lemon and white vinegar for most of our cleaning.
Additional Persons
The Loft Suite sleeps one additional person. A $25 per day charge is applicable.
Breakfast Guests
Visiting family and friends? Feel free to invite them for breakfast at Hidden Lake! Breakfast guests are welcome with an additional charge of $11.00/person. Please make advance reservations for additional breakfast guests.
