We had a lovely stay here! The view was stunning and the inside of the chalet was beautiful and cozy. It was very quiet for sleeping at night, the kitchen was well equipped, and it was an easy drive to Beacon for shops.

Overall, we enjoyed the excellent location and cleanliness of the property. However, sound traveled easily throughout the house, and conversations could be heard from nearly every room, likely due to limited insulation. We were also surprised to find an Ouija board stored in the closet, which was not something we appreciated. For larger groups, we would recommend providing a second garage trash can, as one was not sufficient for multiple days of occupancy.

Enjoyed the view of the lake, the size of the master bedroom, the pool table, pingpong, and large outdoor and indoor sitting areas. It's about 20 minutes to the Daryl's House music venue but since we like to drink at the venue and the house is on very winding, dark roads, we decided to use cab service. Dinner at Daryl's house is excellent so we always buy dinner seating for the shows.

Lovely place

Wonderful place! My only issue was there was no easy access to the water, and the neighborhood/area was rock unpaved roads. But honestly it didn't matter, you never want to leave once you get there. It just so comfy, elegant and relaxing.

Cozy lake house

We had a peaceful two night stay in this very well appointed home. Master bedroom is luxurious with excellent views. The three other bedrooms are good sized. The main living space is lovely with comfortable furniture and excellent views. The kitchen has new appliances and all the cooking equipment one needs to create delicious meals.

Spacious Mountain home with Lake Views

We enjoyed our two nights at Lakeview Chalet. The home is spacious enough to accommodate our group of 7 adults. The furnishing and decorations are very cozy and comfy. The lake view and quiet neighborhood are very relaxing. We especially loved the fire pit in the evening. Everyone said the beds are very comfy and the water temperature and pressure in the showers are excellent -- (probably our most appreciated amenities). Absolutely no complainants and will rent again if ever in the area.

The host was very helpful and communicated well. Very spacious, beautiful views from the balcony and master bedroom.Overall, in our honest opinion, the cabin itself was just ok. The beds were a bit too firm but very clean and we rested well, it’s an older home so everything creeks and you could hear everything even very low conversations. There are some things in the house that need attention, the blinds for the master was broken so while we were changing the blinds were opened, maybe not a big deal for others but we didn’t like that. The second floor bathroom has a window in the shower that was wide open when we got there and we couldn’t lock.
