This home was clean, cozy and accurate to the photos. The kitchen had everything we needed and the fireplace in the living area was a nice touch. Master bedroom was spacious and private and the game room downstairs was perfect for our group of adults. A couple of things to note - house rules include bringing the trash to a separate location in the community at the end of your stay with a 50 penalty if you leave it in the house. Also bring your own blow dryer and soaps for the shower.

Thank you so much for your review. So happy you enjoyed your stay at the chalet. Trash passes are supplied by the HOA to keep the community clean and safe. In our eight years of renting the place there have been a handful of renters that have not used the passes and left the trash outside upon departure. When it’s time to clean the house and flip it for our next renters, the trash has already been attacked by critters, including bears. It’s a disaster for the person that’s there to clean the inside the house. We had to put something in place to prevent this from happening. Thanks for understanding.

This was our second stay, and we've been happy with everything both times. It was warmer this year so we got to spend a day at the lake with the kids, they had a blast. The water is so clear, and the beach was clean and not crowded. We also did some short, kid-friendly hikes in Hickory Run: Boulder Field and Hawk Falls. This is a great place for families.

We had a wonderful time at the house and really enjoyed the hot tub, layout and cleanliness of the home. The one thing I recommend is to bring your own soap - shampoo, conditioner, body wash, lotion, dish soap, dishwasher tabs and hand soap. I shouldn't have assumed they'd be there, so we had to go drive 10-15 mins to stock up. All was in working order - hot tub, jetted tub, appliances and fireplace. There is a fire pit there, but renters are not allowed to use it. You may also want to bring more bath towels. I would definitely rent again but will bring more stuff with me.
Stayed 2 nights in May 2026
Response from VrboOwner on May 14, 2026
Thanks for your review! In our welcome guide and on our VRBO page we specify the things we provide which are dish soap, dishwasher detergent and hand soap which were all there for your visit. The dishwasher tabs are in a small basket near the kitchen sink. As far as the other things you mentioned, we have never offered them in our 9 years of renting. When I’m traveling to a house (not a hotel) I don’t expect the hosts to supply body wash and lotion etc. These days everyone has different sensitivities so we figure it’s best to bring your own. Thank you for understanding. Hope to host you again soon!

Fantastic Family Getaway

The Chalet is exactly as advertised and more! The hosts thought of everything a family would need from a fully-stocked kitchen to luxurious towel sets for all guests. The kids enjoyed the games, going to the pool and lake while also exploring other local trails and attractions. Thanks, Chris & Angela, for being so responsive and providing us with a great home away from home!

Piced this place as a home base for my hubby and I. We’ve never been to the area before and this was a perfect location. The house itself is big enough if you have a larger party to not feel cramped. We didn’t use the basement but the pool table and basketball net would be fun for kids and adults. This was more of an excursion weekend so we also didn’t cook so I can’t speak on pots/pans (didn’t even look for them). Fridge was nice and large so you can fill it for a larger party. We did use the hot tub which is a nice addition. If you do use it and like the water hotter than 90, just understand it does take time to heat up. Would return and recommend this place.

About the host

Hosted by Angela Wilson

Host profile image
Chris and Angela grew up in the Philly suburbs of King of Prussia and Conshohocken. They love spending time on the water, skiing, working out, making delicious meals and giggling at their two Frenchies, Luna & Reggie.

We love being a host and sharing the property with others who are looking to disconnect a bit and enjoy some down time.

Why they chose this property

For as long as Ang has known Chris, he always talked about having a mountain house someday. They both grew up skiing and spending winters in the area so it was a no-brainer that Albrightsville was the perfect place to purchase! We hope you enjoy the house as much as we do as we have already created so many happy memories there! We hope you do too!

What makes this property unique

We fell in love with this place the moment it popped up on Zillow back in 2016. We were looking for a 2nd home and this one spoke to us immediately. We love the open floor plan, the natural lighting and just the whole vibe. The basement is a huge bonus as most of the houses in that area do not have one. We love that it has privacy but also close to all the attractions that Albrightsville has to offer!
