Find serenity with a secluded lakefront cabin | Lake views + Lake Access
**Total of 8 guests with a MAX of 6 adults**
A peaceful, lakefront cabin tucked into a quiet cove on Lake Chelan — designed for slowing down, reconnecting, and experiencing true lake life. Set on 180 feet of private waterfront, this cozy retreat offers something increasingly rare: privacy, stillness, and uninterrupted time together. Here, your days revolve around the rhythm of the lake — morning coffee on the deck, afternoons on the dock, and evenings under the stars.
This isn’t a crowded, high-traffic Chelan experience. This is your own slice of the lake.
PICTURE YOURSELF HERE You arrive, set your bags down, and immediately feel it — quieter, slower, easier.
The lake stretches out in front of you, framed by trees and sky. You step onto the deck, take a breath, and realize… you don’t need to go anywhere.
Mornings start with coffee and still water. Maybe someone casts a fishing line off the dock. Maybe someone else stays wrapped in a blanket, watching the light move across the lake.
By midday, the dock becomes your home base — swimming, paddleboarding, or simply floating while the occasional boat passes in the distance. Lunch turns into an easy, shared meal back at the house, with the BBQ going and doors open to let the breeze in.
Inside, the cabin is warm, comfortable, and designed for connection. Board games come out, conversations linger, and the fully stocked kitchen makes cooking together part of the experience — not a chore.
As the sun drops, dinner moves outside. Glasses clink, stories stretch, and the sky shifts into something unforgettable. Nights end the way they should — quiet, full, and under a sky full of stars.
Here, the goal isn’t to do more. It’s to enjoy more of what matters.
25 Mile Creek State Park is just a mile up the road, offering gas (watercraft), a small convenience store, and a boat launch with trailer parking for a small fee.

Thank you, Susan for choosing our home, Southshore Family Escape, for your stay in Lake Chelan. We appreciate your 4 star review and glad to hear you enjoyed home and thought it was great. This home, being at a more remote location, is on a narrow driveway, with a few neighbors all sharing the driveway. We hope that with our listing description, rental agreement, welcome packet and pictures showing the driveway and parking that are shared with guests as we help them prepare for their stay, expectations are set prior to your arrival. We also limit our parking to three vehicles because of the narrow driveway and limited parking. Your review is helpful for future guests to know that parking can be tight and is limited and that there is no room for trailers. Thanks again for the review and feedback.
We enjoyed our recent weekend stay here, with friends. We found the home was cleaned well, stocked with everything we needed (thank you for the coffee!) and managers provided us with lots of information needed for getting to and navigating the home. With how secluded it is, we appreciated the quietness and staring at the lake and stars. For those looking for some quiet time, and not being too far from town, we recommend this home.
The property was stunning, set in its own little bay that shelters the house and dock from the wind. It was easy to stay inside and watch the rain, sit on the deck and read, or go fishing on the dock; choose any! The hosts communication and check-in/out procedures were impeccable. Do be prepared for figuring out parking, it is a lake place after all.
Our group enjoyed our weekend away at this home. Secluded, in nature, peaceful, water views, all of these aspects were great to have. The home was clean, described well and had all the amenities we needed to be comfortable. Hosts provided clear directions/instructions and some local recommendations in their welcome packet for when we went into town for an afternoon. It is a great lake cabin, and we highly recommend it to others.

Thank you, Nacer, for you 5-star review. We love hearing you enjoyed the home, and we greatly appreciate your feedback about the pantry items. Upon seeing your review, we have since given the feedback to our cleaners about checking for this with the spices in the cabinet and have checked each one to find two spices that had recently passed their expiration date, that are now discarded. We strive to create an open environment with our guests that helps them feel comfortable with contacting us during their stay if there is anything that should be brought to our attention, and if there is anything we can do to ensure they have an enjoyable stay; thanks again for choosing Southshore Family Escape and for providing your feedback.
Loved the house❤️peaceful but a bit far from town for us. Spent a lot of time on the dock fishing and sailing away on our paddleboards. Walkway was a bit steep but we made it work. The only downfall would be the noisy air-conditioning unit although it worked well and kept the house cool although I love the sun and heat. All in all I would definitely stay here again.
Thank you …Milliren family😎

Thank you, Daniel for choosing our home, Southshore Family Escape, for your stay in Lake Chelan. We appreciate your 5-star review and comments about the home as we strive to provide guests with a relaxing vacation because this home is roughly 25 mins from downtown Chelan and allows guests to get away and unplug. We appreciate your feedback about the wall unit in the upper loft and want to note that there are several ways to keep the home cool – wall unit or whole house fan. Information and instructions for how to use the whole house fan are noted in the welcome packet that we provide guests prior to their arrival, and a hard copy is available at the home. Your review is helpful and allows us to share with future guests that there are several ways available to cool the home and support guests during their stay. Thanks again for the review and feedback.
This home was great and just what we needed for some time to relax at the lake. It is secluded and found up lake, so we were about 25 mins from downtown Chelan. We haven't stayed this far north before and were excited for the opportunity. The home was well cleaned and stocked, and property managers ensured we were well prepared for our arrival. We enjoyed hanging on the deck surrounded by trees and incredible views. We brought a kayak and enjoyed exploring around the home. Remember the lake is a pretty cold one and its even colder further up lake, a life vest and constant communication with those on shore is a must; the owners provided walkie talkies. Internet was great knowing that cell service was zero to none, but we didn’t mind because it gave us the peace we were looking for to enjoy our surroundings. One day we just chilled on the dock connecting with our friends, then another day we went wine tasting and shopping in Chelan. Our favorite thing was having the doors open and eating outside every night on the deck. We recommend this home and would absolutely come back again!
We are excited to share this vacation home with others who love being at the lake, boating, wine tasting, and weekend adventures just as much as we do. Over the last 15+ years we have spent many weekend adventures renting off VRBO, so we are thrilled to share another vacation home with others. We hope that through our experiences renting and hosting/managing other vacation rentals, we have built a house suitable for many. In 2020, we established The RPM Group (Reid Property Management) and are honored to add some incredible homes to our vacation rental portfolio: Vacay in WA!
