I would stay here again however,the driveway was so steep both of our minivans spun tires going up the driveway if not approached perfectly. The upstairs bathroom needs remodeled (there is water damage under the floor ) every floor tile is cracked or loose and you can feel the floor move and flex .That being said i would still come back here and the visitors were awesome see photos,great location other than the steep driveway.

Beautiful area

This house offered great areas to enjoy the views of the mountains. The porches on both levels provided an opportunity for coffee in the morning or dinner at night. The kitchen was stocked nicely with matching dishes and other supplies. Check in/out was easy and uncomplicated. Mattresses were uncomfortable. Some of the rooms were a bit difficult to set to a comfortable temperature. The driveway is steep, there were a few level spots to load/unload vehicles. It was a bit challenging carrying suitcases and baggages from the car to the house with the steep front access and steps.

Enjoyed The Cabin, Great Owners!

My family stayed here right after New Years. We enjoyed the spaciousness of the cabin and the charm. The porch gave it the best mountain feeling. The driveway would have been an issue if we hadn’t been in a truck. Definitely tight room with parking. The sleeping arrangements worked out great with our family size. We had a few issues with the heating units, but the owners were very responsive and very accommodating! We appreciated their help and would be happy to stay in one of their rentals again.

It is an older cabin. The kitchen could use a few more cooking items to be considered stocked. It is pet friendly so expect to know there has been pets there. Ran into a few issues but the owner was very responsive. And even though the listing comes up saying it has a hot tub it doesnt.

Needs some upgrades

The ice maker does not work. When told to property the maintenance said there is not water line to it. Had to call maintenance a second time due to the sink leaking. There was no way to clean the grill. The grill was also old and rusted it caught on fire. Cabin could use an AC upgrade as 2 of the rooms was hot due to no AC.

Early Family Christmas

Our stay was fabulous! Minutes away from downtown but away from the traffic and hustle and bustle. The house had a great view of the Ober Sky Tram as it passed by all adorned with Christmas lights. Plenty of room, warm and cozy, We Loved it! Definitely will be our place to stay in the future. Thanks Club Chalet!

Fantastic vacation!

The property was just as listed. While the driveway was steep, the interior was perfect for what we wanted and needed. There was some trash left around the property's exterior from prior guests that we saw when we arrived. The interior steps going from the main level to the upper level are steep and not recommended for those with mobility issues or young children. Overall, we loved Honey Bear at Club Chalet!!!

This property was part of a subdivision, so while it is a "cabin", it is in an area with lots of properties and very little walkable green space. The driveway is VERY steep. 4WD is required.

The new place was very nice with much better parking. Hoping for a refund amount since our 1st evening was ruined by have to load back up and move, but host did a Great job of taking care of us!

Fabulous time

There was some garbage in the wooded area that the bears probably scattered.. but the inside of the cabin was great the one recomendation i would make is a k cup machine that can do more then just coffee..We seen lots of bear... you will see bear 🐻 but the owners were on top of getting the garbage changed as well as the light that went out and kept great communication the whole trip. The drive up is super steap but our suv's handled it well we over all enjoyed our stay and will book with them again if we ever get back to the area.
