Due to the pandemic my family had the unique opportunity to come together at Hidden View under one quarantine bubble. We experienced the B&B decorated for fall, Christmas, and winter. It was the perfect place for us to celebrate my daughterâs baby shower, Christmas, New Year, and a family birthday!
The five suites comfortably held my family of 9 adults ages ranging from 78 to 21. Each suite had a great view of either the grounds or mountains. The in-room fire place and heaters were wonderful for keeping the suites warm and cozy.
The experience is truly a dream home (away from home). The kitchen with double ovens, double dishwashers, a Jenn air and gas stove was the heart of the house as our family loves to cook and eat. Itâs spacious without feeling too spaced out. It made for a special experience while some family members sat at the kitchen table and played board games while others cooked meal or helped prepâwe could all still be together in the same room with enough space.
The sunroom was perfect for my father to enjoy his book or for anyone to sit and enjoy a cup of coffee and some conversation. The plants surrounding you made it a great atmosphere.
The property is gorgeous, and we experienced it in the gardens dormant season. We enjoyed walks on the trails and took advantage of the many places to sit and enjoy the beautiful surroundings. The wood-burning fire pit was a great place to enjoy sunset happy hours with Ray and Cheri!
The living room fireplace provided the Hallmark movie feel especially with the beautiful Christmas decorations (and our one big snow storm).
Because of Covid, Ray and Cheri werenât operating under the traditional breakfast included, but we were treated repeatedly to delicious frittatas, baked yummies, soups and dinner(many of which I asked for the recipes). On our final morning, Ray and Cheri had the most delicious sit down two course breakfast for us!
Prior to booking, I spoke with Cheri about the needs of our family. We had 2 working remotely in finance, one in hospitality, one teaching, and one participating in college classes remotely. Ray made sure that everyone had enough bandwidth to execute their work. My husband set up an office on the sitting room side of tranquility for the 8 weeks, others worked from the Gift Store Office or out of the sitting space in their suites. The bay window in the Tranquility Suite had a great sitting desk with a view of the mountains.
We can't wait to return!
