We loved our stay, the house had plenty of space and the views were beautiful. We enjoyed the large backyard and easy access to the river. Everything was clean and ready for our stay.

We love hearing this—especially that your group enjoyed the house, views and river. So glad everything was clean and comfortable. Hope to host you again anytime at this or any of our other Vacation in Chelan properties!
Wonderful weekend stay for our group! We had 3 families with multiple children and had plenty of space to spread out and have fun. The house was clean, comfortable and well stocked for all of our needs. Not to mention the beautiful views and proximity to Chelan. The host was most accommodating to us and communication was always quick and clear. I would definitely stay here again!

Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear the house worked so well for your three families to enjoy the weekend together with the views, the convenience of being close to Chelan, and everything you needed for a comfortable stay. It was our pleasure hosting you!
Beautiful house. Beautiful view. We saw a bald eagle 2 of the mornings we were there. This the first place I have stayed that I would agree with their definition of a well stocked kitchen. Great fit for our family reunion.

Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We’re thrilled you enjoyed the house and those beautiful views — and how special that you got to see a bald eagle not just once, but twice! 🦅 It means a lot to hear that the kitchen lived up to its “well stocked” promise. We’d love to host you and your family again anytime!
Beautiful stay! Great weather for lounging on the deck, playing croquet, splashing in the river, and making good meals together.

Sounds like the perfect getaway! We love hearing you had such a beautiful stay and enjoyed everything from croquet to cooking. Come back anytime for more river fun and relaxation!
Beautiful location on the Columbia River and close to Chelan, where our family enjoyed the Riverwalk. There were 13 of us and we had plenty of room. Didn't need the extra bedroom in the cottage. The heat in the cottage was a bit difficult to regulate, but we spent most of our time in the main house. Host was very responsive.

Thank you for the wonderful review! We're glad your family enjoyed our Columbia River House and that our team's quick responses helped keep everything smooth. You're welcome back to this or any of our other Vacation in Chelan properties anytime.
The host was very friendly and communicative. We were very happy with the house. There was enough bedrooms for everybody to have their own private space even with a big party. The kitchen had what we needed. Check out and check in were easy. The hot tub was hot and ready to go.

Happy guests, happy house! Sounds like the space, the flow, and the hot tub all did their job perfectly. Thank you for staying with us and for sharing your experience. Come back anytime— we’ll be ready! 🌅
Location, dock and house were wonderful. Would have been better if landscaping was up to date so we could see the river view. The house wasn’t cleaned very well but we enjoyed it over all and will most likely stay there again. Management was great and very friendly.

Thank you for your kind words. We agree this is a great family house with close access to the Columbia River. The spacious home with a large yard offers ample room for large family reunions. Hope you have a wonderful summer.
We had such a great time hosting our family and friends for a small wedding at this property. The management team was super responsive and easy to work with. The property was beautiful and the views of the river were breathtaking. Looking forward to staying here in the future!

Thanks so much for taking the time to leave your glowing 5* review. We are so glad this property was such a perfect fit for your celebration. Thank you for choosing Vacation in Chelan. We would love to have you back!
We’re so glad you had a great time. We love to hear about our guests enjoying themselves when visiting our homes in the beautiful Chelan Valley. This very spacious home has the best of both worlds, easy access to the Columbia River for many water activities and only minutes from the quaint shops and wineries in the Chelan/Mason area. We would love to have you come visit again!
We rented the place for family Christmas and had a great time!! Thanks for having us.
