Hidden Lake AZ
Hidden Lake has always been a place inspired by, and made to inspire FUN. A passion for water recreation birthed a fishing escape and lakeside bar that organically grew overtime to become Phoenix's West Valley premier outdoor event and wedding destination. Hidden Lake is a private 120 acre outdoor recreation destination, located in Maricopa County, Arizona, just west of the Phoenix Metro area.

It consists of 60+ acres of trophy fishing waters, a beautiful wedding location, private event center, and live music venue. Bordered by thousands of acres of protected riparian area, we offer a wide variety of healthy, active, outdoor entertainment for all ages. From the moment of arrival the lake captures your attention, a breathtaking body of water unexpected among Arizona's dry topography.

We are striving to create a safe, clean environment for true anglers, nature advocates and families alike to enjoy.

So we went to Hidden Lake this past weekend for their Taco and Tequila Fest. We had such a blast! The foods, drinks, and music was great. I can't believe I have lived in a Buckeye for 3 years and just now discovered this place. Definitely would recommend visiting, whether it's during the week for a nice lake visit or on the weekend for one of their many events.

I love coming here to fish. They have a variety of species living in that lake.. But coming for the events is expensive.... I spent 50 bucks on: 2 drinks. $18 dollars for 2 drinks that were 12 ounces. Ice filled to the brim (tipped $2) $20 on a 6 inch sandwich and small side of nachos for the Boyfriend. $10 entry fee. Was there from 6:30 to 8:30, when we were leaving, the girls that took entry fees and gave the tickets were gone. The table was gone. No one was charging for entry? Is it free after 8:00 pm or something? If so, that would have been cool to know, considering how little time we spent

Becareful following Google Maps to this one. It's tucked away down a dirty road but Google tries to get you there by a close by farm road which leads to a dead. The correct dirt road has signs for it. Lol other than that it's a pretty nice place. We went and seen a live band. They had food trucks there. And the lake side bar was servicing some strong drinks. Make a reservation if you are heading out for an event if you want a table around the stage. They go quick.

Hidden Lakes??? You mean old ready mix mining operation. First let's start with the way over priced fees. To park, to enter, and then of course for anything else.

Walk around the property. See the area where concrete slopes into lake! That's were the mixer washout was. Now yes that may have been years ago but it makes you wonder how that lake appeared.

The venues are ok sometimes. Been out there twice and won't be back. This was a hidden gem in buckeye that locals would have tailgate parties at. Without a fee! Lol. Then a family from Cali bought the land and charged rip off

Amazing place!! Beautiful spot for pictures and lots of parking. My kids went to a prom here and I wanted to stay because it was so pretty. They had so many lights and the dance floor was a good size. The best part was the awesome photo spots they had set up to enhance the already amazing background. Beware of walking in high heels in the parking lot. It is a lot of areas with dirt and lots of gravel. Once you get out of the parking lot you are good though.

Great Fishing and Family Entertainment. I love taking the family to this spot; especially on Sunday Funday:). Along side of the fishing habitat, they have really built the place out for entertainment and weddings? The upgraded boat ramp is also a bonus, great for first time boat users to become familiar with their boat without the hassle of traffic at the main lakes.

What a great place. Live entertainment, selection of food trucks, great bar, and a awesome view. We were there for a friends birthday. Thadius Rose was amazing band. Had the dance floor packed and rocked out all night. Wished we still lived in the west valley, this would be our weekend hangout place.

Native here! Born and raised! How did I not know this lake was here? Totally Worth the drive from north Phoenix. Went to watch my best friends husband's band play at the venue on the lake. Plenty of parking, rv parking right up to the lake! Very clean, beautiful sunsets, lots of great action and fun going on, Definitely bringing the dog and kids for some fun next time!

This is a cool spot. I would definitely recommend going to an event here. We went to Smoke on the Water where they had bands, food trucks and vendors. There was a BBQ competition that we had tickets for that but never got BBQ (as they ran out)

Parking was a bit spendy, $15.00 per car.

The bathrooms are awesome as crazy as this sounds. It wasn't a porta potty which I was for grateful for. It was clean, it was full of TP, hand soap and towels. For as many people who used it, I was happy

Cool little spot in the middle of nowhere. I believe you can rent some water toys as well.

Went for an open fishing day and I was highly disappointed. After driving for about an hour from North Phoenix we arrived at 8am to find the entrance gates were closed. We waited for 30 minutes then decided to call Hidden Lake's "customer service" line. After an additional 25 minutes someone responded with a text saying they would not be open till 11am because someone called out sick. I understand that happens with a small business so we decided to get breakfast and come back. When an employee finally arrived, at 10:30 am, he seemed irritated that we were waiting to be let in. He

We were going for an outdoorsy, open and beautiful view for our wedding day. Hidden Lake did not disappoint! it was gorgeous and the staff was incredible from day 1! We worked closely with both Jennifer and Sara - both were friendly, professional and so accommodating! Sara was a blessing on the day of our wedding as she took care of everything! I showed her my vision and she made it happen! I was not approached once on my day to problem solve anything and she handled every little thing! If you want a gorgeous view, a beautiful sunset, endless possibilities for your wedding feel and an amazing staff

I don't usually write reviews because I don't generally see the point. However, the Medieval Fair was extremely lack luster. We were ridiculously excited for this because we hoped that there would be some semblance of safety with the whole pandemic stuff going on. There was scarce mask wearing, no social distancing whatsoever and really nothing "free" to do given you pay to enter. You paid for a ticket...to pay for things and food. Nothing else.

Truthfully, it was a glorified, themed flea market. Prices are ridiculous and we left after only 40 minutes. Sorry to be so negative

I love Hidden Lake. The boat races they have are so cool. Fast boat racing and live bands and entertainment after the boat races. People travel from all over to come race here. Hidden Lake is a great place with lots of entertainment and good times!

We had a really great time today at their Sunday Funday. No one was really wearing masks which made me a bit nervous, but I think we were all far enough away from each other that it was safe. Everyone was super friendly and it's such a great venue!

Hidden lake is a nice hidden gem out in Buckeye.
I'd like to see more selection of Bands come out here. It is always the same bands playing when there's soooo many local bands that could play out here.
There's so much potential for a great outdoor music venue.
