Dock access with kid-friendly beach area was enjoyable. House only has 1 shower which made it difficult to get everyone ready on time. Otherwise all amenities were great, and location is impressive.
Loved how close this cabin was to the water's edge. we enjoyed swimming and paddle-boarding off the private beach and boat dock. The home has beautiful landscaping around it. the rooms are nicely decorated with curious wall art. kitchen is well equipped with most things you need.
The house was perfect for our needs and the lake access was amazing! We lost power for a few hours one morning (no fault of the hosts) but they promptly took care of it and we were quickly back in business. Hosts were polite and helpful but let us have our own time on the dock/lakefront - though we would have been happy for them to join us. House was clean and exactly as shown in the photos. I would definitely come back!
We had a great time at the property for the 4th of July long weekend.
Property is clean and well maintained. The biggest draw is the shared dock and beach with a grassy area.
Downsides are: (i) owners live in the lake front house, which can be "intimidating", (ii) AC does little to the second floor rooms given how hot Chelan days can be and (iii) double beds are a bit unconfortable (soft spring noisy mattress). Also note there's just one shower.
All of that said, you're probably in one of the lake's best places. Clear calm waters, a quick ride away from Manson Bay and Wapato Point where you can dine and rent watersports equipment (boat, jetski, paddle boards etc).
Owners are friendly but didn't entertain our dock use after checkout time. House itself was unocuppied by the 10am time and next guest was checking in at 4pm. Despite that, we're politely remembered of the 10am check out (please leave the property) by one of the family members.
Vacasa manages the property and dropped a few balls in regards to check in instructions (only came a day or two late) and missing toileteries. Manager was responsive by text and addressed it immediately but usually, this isn't a problem.
Personally, I would rather not contact the manager or owner at all during my stay.
Our extended family of six adults and two children spent five nights at the Red Lake House. The best part of this place is clearly the beach access. The dock was perfect for throwing in a line and there were enough nibbles to keep you interested. It can support a good size boat, although all we brought were our kayaks. There is a small bit of beach, which was just enough for our littles to have an opportunity to sit and splash and play in the sand and water. There was enough green space for our pop up to provide us with some shade. There are plenty of chairs in the dock area as well as, up by the patio. The house provided plenty of space with the three bedrooms and open floor plan. The patio, with a small view of the lake was perfect for dinners outside. A nice grassy area provided a spot for evening yard games we'd brought.
The owners, who live on the property, were responsive when after the first night we'd discovered that one of the queen beds had a broken a box spring. They replaced it the following day, which was fully appreciated. They also provided a hair dryer upon request, when we realized there wasn't one in the unit. We have stayed at many properties in the Manson, Lake Chelan area, and are always searching for just the right property; I think we may have found it!
The house is very well cleaned, situated along the lake and was a great private retreat. My group also visited Echo Ridge trailhead and had a nice morning hike. The dock gives a pleasant and calming view of the full moon at midnight.
This house doesn't have much water front view but very close to water. It has private water access where kids can go and play in the dand and water. Very good interior decoration and would like to visit again..
We had a blast at the red house! Our kids didnât want to leave the water. The house is fully equipped for hot summer weather also. Would definitely come again.
There were 7 of us who were in town for a tennis tournament at Harmony Meadows in Manson, just a few miles away. This house was perfect, and exactly what we were looking for. It was clean, spacious, and the owners were so nice and accommodating. I would come back and rent here again in a heartbeat!
We stayed here for 4 nights with another family. There were 9 of us total. It was perfect. We enjoyed lots of family meals and lots of boat time! The owners live on the property and were so nice and caring. Even brought the kids popsicles she had in the freezer! The private beach is amazing and the kids LOVED having their own place to swim and look for fish. We are hoping to go back again next summer! Thank you so much.
We headed to Chelan with our friends and had 5 kids total and 4 adults. Plenty of space and beds for all to spread out as well as parking for two cars. The house was nice and hosts so gracious to share dock and water/ beach area. The girls loved going to swim and wade in the water- easy location with the dock as well to drop off after a day on the boat to unload and load. The house kitchen was modern and nice-
So nice to have an ice maker to fill up water bottles. Easy to cook and eat dinner for large group. Only set back - listing says two full bath and only 1.5- so one shower/tub for 9 of us but we made it work. Super cute and nice place to stay- clean and plenty of towels. Quiet at night and fun. Two thumbs up from our kids!
Great property. The house was very family friendly. Common areas were good size for hanging out. Kitchen was well-stocked with dishes and cookware. There was a grill outside, which was not in the listing. The dock has a boat lift as well as buoys for lake play, as well as plenty of outdoor seating at the house and at the lake. The "shared" beach area is just with the owner, who let us have our own time uninterrupted. As other reviewers have said, there is only 1 shower/bath in the home, which is in the upstairs bathroom. Would definitely book again.
Perfect weather while there and the property owners very pleasant. We didn't use the beach just because we came at the wrong time of year, but the boat launch and marina are very close. Nice room and deck. No issues.
We enjoyed our stay, nice quiet place in fall. The only reason I marked 4 stars in online accuracy is that I thought the listing identified it as a two bath and it is really 1 and a half bath, but I could have misread the listing as well.
We loved everything: large kitchen, good amount of space, easy access to the lake, the list goes on. Only drawback is that there are only 1.5 bathrooms, not 2. This means only 1 shower in the whole house.
