In a wooded setting at Hidden Pond Resort sits a stately barn that perfectly blends a sense of elegance with rustic design. Trees that once stood within the restaurant's footprint were repurposed and used to create a distinctive wall. Alongside a dramatic stone fireplace, a preserved cherry tree with sparkling white lights hangs upside down from the vaulted ceiling. Guests can dine in the screened porch area or in the gardens; both afford views of the pond and the nightly bonfire. The menu changes seasonally and is created with ingredients foraged by local farmers, cheesemakers and fishermen. Service is professional and attentive.
