Joie De Vivre

Joie de Vivre (or "Joy of Living") is a French phrase often used in English to express a cheerful enjoyment of life; an exultation of spirit. That's the way we feel about the Lookout at Lake Chelan and about our home.

Joie de Vivre, completed in 2016, is a spacious three story, 3,095 sq. a . home with four bedrooms and four full baths with expansive views of Lake Chelan from our two lakeside decks and patio. The original third story bedroom window was changed to a large deck for guests to enjoy a more encompassing view while sunbathing, hanging out, or star gazing. We feel the view is breathtaking from the third floor and we all agree it is our favorite part of the home.

The inverted floor plan has the master and living room/dining/kitchen on the second floor to enjoy the expansive views while cooking, watching TV, or just relaxing by the gas fireplace. There are several stately poplar trees that filter the view during the summer months, none the less, I think you will all agree that the views are still incredible, and it is relaxing on a breezy day to watch the trees sway in unison with the wind.

The dining room table has seating for 10 with six chairs and a full-length bench. The table and bench were custom made in Portland and use repurposed wood that came from the Oregon State Hospital in Salem (think where they filmed "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest"). There are four bar chairs along the island bar to provide additional seating.

While keeping the idea of the guests' comfort and enjoyment in mind, we also made changes to the first floor eliminating one of the bedrooms and creating a larger media room. This area has electronics (65" HDTV, X-Box One, and DVD library), an 8 ft. slate pool table, an assortment of games and puzzles, and two sets of sliding doors leading out to a lovely patio and a small courtyard with expansive lake views. The first floor also has a bunk room for the kids that sleep five.

We thank you for choosing Joie de Vivre. Enjoy life and have fun.

Dogs are allowed at Joie de Vivre. Maximum of 2 dogs, 70 pounds or less, crate sleeper, potty trained. NO Puppies

Excellent, however the TV was a disappointment. No instructions on how to access net flix, or other entertainment channels. If net flix was not available to us, then that is a disappointment. Kitchen cooking equipment, great. Cut those damn trees down, what a terrible waste.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Joi De Vivre was just the right size for our two families and one corgi! The location was convenient to the wedding venue, Chelan, and local walking trails. We utilized the Lookout hot tub and pickleball courts. There were bicycles available in the garage but no helmets, therefore the guest mostly likely to ride wouldn't because of a previous bike accident.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was beautiful and wonderfully located. HOWEVER, the pictures on the website are VERY old and outdated. We were expecting to see the lake (why we chose the house we did) and instead found no lake view due to the trees that had grown up tall, blocking the lake view. False advertising is VERY disappointing. Also, the fridge doors need some work, they kept popping open. With that said, we did enjoy our time there, the house had a great layout for our group and it was clean and tidy. I would recommend this location to others but I also recommend that the pictures be updated!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved the house. It was equipped with everything we needed. The location was perfect. We did have a fire alarm go off in the middle of the night. Just so you can get it fixed. It was the room upstairs on the north side. We also had some trouble keeping the refrigerator door on the right closing.Other than that the house was in perfect condition.
