We had a wonderful stay at this family-friendly house! The property was clean, comfortable, and perfect for spending quality time with family. The hot tub and sauna were great amenities that made our stay even more enjoyable. Daniela was an excellent host—she responded to our messages immediately and kindly offered us a late checkout, which we really appreciated. We truly enjoyed our stay and would happily recommend this property to other families!

About the host

Host profile image
Hello,

Me and my husband have bought a weekend home in the community a weekend home, we loved it so much that we are now living here full time. We love having friends over and entertaining so we have decided two years ago to buy another home for short term rental. We are enjoying renting our home and making sure our guests enjoy it also.

Why they chose this property

We love the Hideout because is well maintained, quiet and has a lot of amenities including two beaches, 2 outdoor pools, golf course, ski hill, outdoor courts and club house.

What makes this property unique

Bright, great air flow, two living rooms, two gas fireplaces. The house has a great layout, one bedroom downstairs, two on the first floor, and master bedroom and bath with jacuzzy on the second floor. Guests love that the bedrooms are spread out throughout the house which provides more privacy. It has a circular driveway, very close to the gate.
