Hidden Lake is a gated condominium community in Bradenton, Florida, offering spacious two- and three-bedroom residences, private garages, a heated swimming pool and spa, clubhouse, fitness center, and scenic views of a five-acre lake. Located in West Bradenton near Manatee Avenue, the community provides convenient access to shopping, restaurants, medical services, Robinson Preserve, Downtown Bradenton, and the beaches of Anna Maria Island.
Hidden Lake was developed in multiple phases beginning in the mid-2000s, with later Hidden Lake II residences completed through approximately 2016. This extended development period gives buyers a choice between established original-phase condos and newer residences offering more contemporary finishes, impact-resistant windows and doors at select properties, and updated construction features.
Condos at Hidden Lake
Hidden Lake primarily offers two- and three-bedroom condominium residences ranging from approximately 1,440 to 1,610 square feet of living space. The community consists of two-story residential buildings arranged around the central lake and landscaped common areas.

Because Hidden Lake includes residences built during different development periods, buyers should compare construction year, hurricane protection, roofing, garage configuration, interior improvements, association responsibilities, and insurance requirements when evaluating individual properties.
Hidden Lake and Hidden Lake II
The community was developed in multiple phases under both the Hidden Lake and Hidden Lake II names. Original Hidden Lake residences date primarily to the mid-2000s, while later Hidden Lake II phases were developed from approximately 2013 through 2016.
MLS records may identify properties using several subdivision names, including Hidden Lake Condominium, Hidden Lake Phase 1, Hidden Lake Phase 3, Hidden Lake II, Hidden Lake II Phase 1, Hidden Lake II Phase 2, and Hidden Lake II Phase 3.
From a buyer’s perspective, these phases function as parts of the larger Hidden Lake community, but construction dates, condominium documents, floor plans, and certain property characteristics can vary.

Five-Acre Lake and Waterfront Views
The five-acre lake is one of Hidden Lake’s most distinctive features. Residential buildings are arranged around the water, allowing many condos to enjoy direct lake and fountain views from screened lanais.
A walking path follows portions of the lake and provides residents with an attractive setting for exercise, wildlife watching, and enjoying the community’s landscaped surroundings.
Select residences are positioned directly along the lake, but buyers should remember that this is an interior freshwater lake rather than navigable boating water.
Newer Hidden Lake II Residences
Hidden Lake II expanded the community with newer condominium buildings developed primarily from 2013 through 2016. These residences typically offer two- and three-bedroom floor plans ranging from approximately 1,480 to 1,610 square feet.
Depending on the property, newer Hidden Lake II condos may feature:
- Impact-resistant windows and doors
- Granite countertops
- Solid-wood cabinetry
- Stainless-steel appliances
- Higher ceilings
- Open floor plans
- Large screened lanais
- One-car garages
- Lake and fountain views
This makes Hidden Lake unusual among West Bradenton condo communities because buyers can find both established mid-2000s properties and residences built as recently as 2016 within the same general neighborhood.
Age, Rental and Pet Considerations
Hidden Lake is not an age-restricted 55+ community.
Rentals are permitted subject to association approval and current condominium rules. Property records for several Hidden Lake residences have identified a one-month minimum lease, although buyers considering rental use should verify the current minimum lease period, rental frequency, application procedures, and any phase-specific restrictions before purchasing.
Pets are also permitted subject to association rules. Current listings commonly identify small-pet restrictions, with some residences reporting limits of approximately 25 to 35 pounds. Because pet rules may be amended, buyers should review the current governing documents before purchasing.
