Why is 114 Imperial Drive called The Homestead? The house was built in the early 1970’s by George and Helen Parke who owned the original land that Hidden Valley was built on. They lived in this house year-round. The Loft was the former master bedroom, and the house was heated with the same Franklin Stove that is still in the dining room. The deck and current Master bedroom were added on much later. As Hidden Valley began to grow, George was the major real estate agent, selling his land to early homeowners. The Parkes sold 114 Imperial and built a home at the top of what is now Imperial ski slope. There are many landmarks in Hidden Valley named after them, so as you enjoy Lake George, Lake Helen and travel up the resort on Parke Drive, you can note that you are staying in THE ORIGINAL HOMESTEAD in Hidden Valley…nicely remodeled and redecorated for a more modern taste and for your comfort! We look forward to helping you create your own lasting memories in this cozy mountain home. Guest access Entire Home and full resort access.
The vacation home is heated and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 4 bedrooms and a dining area. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a sofa bed.

Great stay at The Homestead!
Our ski weekend at The Homestead was fantastic and the place was perfect for our group (two families with teenage kids)! Everyone enjoyed spending time around the fireplace and the location to the slopes can't be beat! Great communication with the owner and we would definitely book this place again!

The Homestead
The Homestead is conveniently located across from the base lodge with spectacular views of the ski runs and lodge both day and night. This property was well maintained and very clean with a well stocked kitchen.

Christmas Get-Away Didn't Disappoint
Paul was a fantastic host always responding in a timely manner. We arrived 2 days after Christmas to find the house adorned with a lovely Christmas tree in the living room. It was the perfect backdrop and special unexpected added touch to make our post holiday ski trip extra special. The location of the house is THE BEST. Walk to the end of the drive and hop on the slope and within a few minutes you will be on a lift to the top. Coffee and Tea bar was fully stocked and super convenient. The beds were cozy and loaded with the perfect amount of blankets and pillows. House was very clean! I made a rookie mistake and forget wood for the fire and extra trashbags but other than those items we had everything we needed for a great few days of skiing.

Perfect place to stay with family or friends at Hidden Valley!
The Homestead had everything we needed for our 2 families with kids and a Grandmom for a weekend retreat. The host provided clear and helpful
communication and made sure we had everything we needed upon arrival and during our stay. This home was extremely comfortable, with beautiful wood burning fireplaces to keep things cozy (and even make s'mores) to an outdoor firepit and deck. The TVs had all the needed streaming services too, so everyone was able to watch what they wanted! All of the rooms had extra heaters to ensure the temp for each room was perfect for each guest, as well as plenty of closet or drawer space for your items. The kitchen was well stocked and clean and the host ensured amenities were available and aplenty! My family especially loved the coffee nook - everything they needed as coffee lovers (and even hot chocolate!) The home was very clean and everything was in good working order. Even the bathrooms had jars of cotton swabs and dental floss in case you didn't bring yours! And for the skiers, the boot dryer in the ski room was the best to dry out your boots for the next day! Thank you so very much, Paul, for thinking of everything we could possibly need for a weekend of skiing and fun with family. We look forward to returning to Hidden Valley and your lovely home! Thank you for hosting us!

Terrific Base Camp
From the first contact to the final check out, our host was responsive, accomodating and friendly. The house was clean and well appointed! Very comfortable for our family of 4 adults and 2 kids, could have easily had another couple. Location was the best, bottom of the slopes and near the lodge, convenient to everything. Thank you for helping us make family memories! We had a terrific stay!

Perfect place for a family retreat
Great location, amazing vibe, perfect place for family to connect and have fun. Fireplace inside is amazing and the outside deck has a propane fire pit. Located right on the Imperial slope and as close to ski-in/ski-out as you can get.
