Very clean and had everything we needed. Our teenagers enjoyed the game area. It was exactly what we were looking for! A weekend away to just relax and spend time together! The owners were super helpful and very quick to respond if we had a question.

Memorial Day Weekend 2024
The house was very cozy and was a perfect layout for all of us to make meals and eat together inside or outside on the deck. We loved that we could watch movies or have a game night upstairs or downstairs. We played lots of ping pong and arcade games and appreciated the movie decor😊. The Hideout itself is a little challenging as it was crowded on the beach and in the pool area (a holiday weekend could be the reason) and the public safety officers take their responsibilities very seriously 🙄. But the location of the house is very tranquil and serene. And Matt was very attentive and helpful with providing lots of suggestions for what to do and where to go in the area. We will definitely consider staying here again.

Fun Weekend!
Matt was a great host! Communication was easy and efficient. He also offered extra info for fun activities for the kids. The house was clean, very well stocked and the basement is a God send for kids on a rainy day! We felt at home from the start and had a blast even though it rained ALL day on Saturday.

Snow tubing vaca.
My children & grandchildren stayed at Whispering Woods for a 3 day snow tubing trip. The owner Matt was the most cordial person to deal with. He answered every question i had so fast I was truly impressed. He and his wife made several suggestions about activites in and around the community that myself and my grandkids might enjoy. The house had every th hing we could possibly need, all the way down to qtips in the bathrooms. Im very OCD and have a cleaning business and i tell you this place met my standards which are pretty high. The downstairs game room was awesome for the kids as well as myself. I haven't played Pack-man in over 40 yrs and it was so much fun. Im not as good at ping pong but still beat the little ones, lol. The Mickey room was a big hit for my grandson who informed me he was not coming home with us but was gonna live there forever with Mickey. Cant say enough about this place and the owners. Hoping to get back in the summer. Matt thanks again for mak im ng th his a wonderful holiday vacation my family will remember long after im gone! Annie
