Lovely long weekend!

The cabin was a perfect place to stay for a relaxing few days. It's beautiful both inside and out - gorgeous view from the deck, great location - not too far from town, well-equipped kitchen and spotlessly clean! We will certainly stay here again on our next visit!

Cozy little spot with gorgeous views

My husband and our two dogs stayed at Happy Place for a long weekend for a wedding in Chelan. We LOVED our stay at Happy Place. It had the most gorgeous view of the lake and it was really such a great space we had everything we needed. It was also right next to a big open lot so our dogs could run and play fetch. We had easy comms and were quick to respond. They also provided local reccos which was great. We just had a really cozy stay - would definitely come back!

Very Lovely, Beautiful, clean, Great view, however, we had NO access to the lake or dock, that was strange. My wife left a jewelry box, and a lace t shirt, we would like to contact them to get those items back.

Beautiful Lake Chelan Cabin in Manson Washington

This was a beautiful cabin. So clean, full kitchen with all items we have in our home. Huge deck with outdoor furniture. Great view of the lake. Couldn't ask for a better place. Lots of room to walk our dog. If we are ever back in this area will be staying here!!!

We Found Our Happy Place!

My husband and I and our dog thoroughly enjoyed our five night stay at this wonderful, well-appointed cabin overlooking Lake Chelan. No rooftops or other properties to hinder the view! Easy, pleasant walks around the rural neighborhood, a few minutes drive to Manson with grocery store and restaurants, parks on the lake and swimming. A 15-minute drive to Chelan with more restaurants and renowned wineries with fabulous views. The new grill was awesome and the decks were wonderful. The excellent hosts were communicative and helpful and we would stay again, no question!!! And certainly hope to!

Charming and relaxing

What a sweet little cabin. My husband and I just finished our stay and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Beautiful views from the front and back of the cabin. Perfect size for a couple. Excellent to come home to after a day exploring the Lake Chelan area. The deck and its view are gorgeous. Highly recommend, especially if you want a peaceful place to relax!
