Wenatchee, Washington
Fantastic lodge-like mountain condo off Squilchuck Rd. only 5 miles to Mission Ridge ski area. Just remodeled with brand new kitchen and baths (not shown in pics yet). 2BRs on the main floor plus a large sleeping loft with its own separate half bath. Deluxe pool table and 65" flatscreen in LR. Awesome views of the mountain from every room and the outside deck. W/D, 2 covered parking spaces and additional parking if needed in outside lot. Rustic location w wild turkeys and only 6 miles to Wenatchee shopping, restaurants, movie theaters, etc..
Great location to Mission Ridge. Condo is in excellent condition. Roomy with a great shower and plenty of bathrooms. Will stay here again without hesitation.
Started our stay realizing we had spotty cellular connection that did not allow me to access entry message from owner. Was told by neighbor to walk across property to overlook. After stepping through animal fecal matter and across a very icy parking lot, owner did answer my call and verbally provided code to front door. When walking back,condo complex run down and littered with stuff. Upon entering, things got rough. My family had no place to stow our belongings for our 3-night stay. The entry closet was full of miscellaneous stuff and 6 plastic hangers. Next closet contained h2o heater and furnace along with more stuff including used underwear hanging from hook. Kitchen pantry had cleaning supplies and food mixed on shelves. Hallway closet was for linens but contained more cleaning supplies and garbage. Our last hope in master bedroom was a closet full of construction materials and shelving units. One last check in dressers and instructed my family to keep gear in suitcases. As we settled in after a 4hour road trip, instructions for TV were vague and proved frustrating. Our kids played pool but not after finding rat bait in basket with ping pong paddles and matches for fireplace. Found dated and buggy food in pantry and corner cabinet so kept our food in boxes. Sensed couch was dirty and confirmed; had to let that go but the cigarette butts collection that my kids discovered on top of the hutch next to kitchen was gross. Other things: bathroom doors could not close, reducing privacy; window covers mismatched and hard to manage; front door lock was tricky; child’s mattress cover stained; two soap pods for three night stay; no obvious extra garbage bags; one bar stool was wonky and handrail in loft wobbly. For my family, there was no place or all of us to sit down and eat or play board games. The furniture was dated, worn and funky with chipped paint, stickers, burn marks and loose hardware. Sent message to owner regarding wood for fireplace and extra towels (later found under bathroom sinks); two dura logs left by door the second day. Second morning sent message to owner at 8am regarding snow removal. Skiing at MRSA opens at 9am. We shoveled a path for our vehicle to get out of covered parking only to be met with berm of snow removal crew had plowed as they worked on lot at 9am. WAY OVERPRICED FOR PROPERTY AND LACK OF AMENITIES. 1STAR: Owner having respond to 2 text messages and one call, for a working furnace and hot water heater.
First the good: The location is great - very close to Mission Ridge Ski Area. Now the not so good: The coffee maker didn't work, everything was dusty, there were bizarre items in the main bedroom closet, the beds are incredibly hard, and the living room layout is awkward. The pool table is a nice touch, but it takes the place of an actual dinner table - making eating something you just have to do on the sofas. The stairs up to the loft are really steep (almost like a ladder). When the heater is set to a relatively normal temperature (for us: 68 in the winter), the downstairs bedrooms get really hot. The pillows in the twin beds upstairs are quite flimsy as well.
My family really enjoyed staying here. We saw wild turkey, and we were so close to sledding and fun! Super quiet, the huge icicles were amazing!
Enjoyed our stay. We didn’t use the home other than to sleep after adventuring off to Chelan one day and Leavenworth the next, but it was well equipped had we needed to use the kitchen. Would stay again!
We recently stayed at this property for a family ski trip. The unit was very clean upon our arrival which was important to us. Yes the condo is dated but we really appreciated being close to Mission Ridge, and the pool table provided hours of fun after skiing. You can't beat the location if you are planning to ski Mission Ridge. We think it would be helpful if additional kitchen towels were provided for use.
Nice place! Super convenient to the Mission Ridge ski area. The pool table was a great activity for teens. Beautiful views. Kitchen small but functional. Overall, a wonderful spot for a ski getaway.
The only thing that would have made it any better would have been a hot tub.
My family stayed over Christmas. Slice of mountain heaven. We were a party of 6 and there was room for all of us to be comfortable.
We had a great time at the condo when we weren’t searching for hills to sled we were all cuddled up on the couch and taking turns playing pool. A great time!
