Heart Pond Hideaway
Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'
Relax in tranquility in this home on the shores of lovely Heart Pond. You'll enjoy a private dock with water access, perfect for heading off to explore. Lovely lake views are visible from all over the home—the enclosed porch might become your favorite spot in the house. However, there's enough outdoor seating that you may not ever want to come back inside! Light up the firepit and watch the stars come out, or grill and dine alfresco on the back porch. The full kitchen inside the house (complete with full-size appliances and plenty of cooking tools) will help you assemble delicious meals. Good times come easily at this home. There's room for you out on the back porch! For larger groups or a more private, quiet space, book Heart Pond Hideaway Annex together.
THINGS TO KNOW
Parking notes: There is free parking available for 4 vehicles.

A beautiful home with a broken lock
I’ll start with the good: this is a gorgeous property with plenty of room for a big group and a four season porch we were obsessed with.
Unfortunately, the front door DID NOT LOCK while we were staying at the property. When I raised it to the guest services team, it took a full day for someone local to follow up, a few more hours for them to come check on it for us after asking if we really needed them to, and the they admitted it was broken and did nothing to fix it, just told us no one around here ever gets broken into. There’s only so much you can relax on vacation when you’re worried about the safety and security of your loved ones and personal items.
Also, beware that booking this property means booking with a huge property management company with its own app, customer service, etc which is honestly both very annoying and confusing. I had to add a night to this reservation and it took multiple support tickets and phone calls to do so because of the multiple layers of middle men.

Nice stay on lake
Very nice home on lake. We had a wonderful time enjoying the backyard in the evening with the bonfire on the lake. Overall, the house met our expectations. Bedrooms and bathrooms were nice size. Kitchen had just about everything we needed.

Perfect Vacation
This home is so lovely and is in the perfect location. Beautiful pond and surrounding area. The house and grounds were spotless and everything you needed was provided. We were there during hurricane Lee and lost power for 12 hours. The management team checked on us, brought us water and kept us informed about the power company. Wi-Fi was good except for power outage of course. This was the perfect place for our 2 week vacation stay. The location is perfect for day trip outings to the entire area. Highly recommend this property.

Relaxing retreat
My family enjoyed the property. My son fished in the clear waters off the dock and we all enjoyed the fire pit one evening. The property had everything we needed.

Peaceful lake home
Lovely older home with updated bathrooms and kitchen and gorgeous hardwood floors. Newly painted and super clean with beautiful new bedding and towels. The setting is spectacular and very private with a dock on a small lake. All in all, we had a very comfortable stay. The pictures online do not do the home justice.
