Elegant Escape Steps from Lake & Fun

A big beautiful house with a number of mechanical isssues- including insufficient hot water for our group of 16 (or to fill the jacuzzi). The issues, including an ant infestation, were addressed during our time. There is no yard for children to play in, there is no pleasant place to walk to and the house is not in great shape. Next door was another big beautiful house filled with loud drinkers who took up at least 1 of our parking spaces. But there are lots of bedrooms and en suite bathrooms, and the views are beautiful.

My family of 11 stayed at the Cedar Chateau during Christmas week and loved it. The house is absolutely stunning and plenty of room for everybody to have their own space. Our favorite spots were the large living/dining room with its vaulted ceiling and fireplace, along with the fantastic indoor heated pool, large kitchen and 8 bedrooms, most with their own bathroom. We also gathered in the game room to play billiards and Foosball. The cooks in the family especially loved the kitchen with its two refrigerators and enough dishes and utensils to feed an army. Another great feature of the house was its view of the lake and ski slope. A few minor things needing fixing were reported and fixed immediately. However, while we highly recommend this property, we were disappointed that the hot tub wasn’t working and unable to be fixed. We were looking forward to using it after a day of skiing. We are awaiting a response from management on reimbursement for the unavailability of that amenity. Also, some of the gas stove pilots weren’t working and unable to be fixed. As suggested to management, we hope that an assessment of all major features of the house be conducted before future rentals are confirmed.

We had a fantastic weekend at Cedar Chateau! The property was very clean and matches the pictures provided. Great location, right next to wisp. Easy trip over for tubing and snowboarding. House was huge, plenty of room for our group of 20. Kids loved the indoor pool and the pool table in the basement. Would definitely stay here again.

Great house and fun amenities. Hoping to come back during summer to really enjoy and soak in the location. Small leak most likely from heavy snow in the dining area but stopped somehow. Pool was fantastic and the games in the basement. Color clarity in the main living room was bad, maybe switching the basement to the main living room TV's. Hope to see you later this year. Highly recommended!

Great location with plenty of space and beautiful scenic views

Close to skiing, kids enjoyed the pool

This was a fabulous casual stay for a get together, would recommend. The house is a tad out dated and for sure loved but it’s a nice stay. This house is the very last one so it’s kind the best spot and a tad more secluded. The only 5 cars rule was really hard for our group and there was bad weather when we were there so we kept our cars on site for safety. It was also pretty unclear where the leasing office was for spare cars. Otherwise, this place met the needs of the weekend. Great location.

The home fit a group of 25 with no problem. It was in a great location within walking distance to a restaurant/bar, go carts/mini golf and of course the lake. Just be aware that the hot tub only has 1 seat with jets. I noticed that a previous renter had mentioned it but iI thought that 2 years later it would be fixed. It was not. Also, many of the door locks on the sliders could use replacement. A good tug and it will open just enough to Jimmy the lock. Many of the windows in the pool area are stripped and cannot be opened or closed. That said we had a great time and would recommend the home.

The house is centrally located to all that we wanted to do. The kitchen was well stocked. We all enjoyed the house and area for vacation

Pro’s: game room, hot tub, main floor Great room; layout accommodated 4 families and 18 people very well. Great location near shopping, entertainment and parks. Well-appointed kitchen (though knives are dull). Property Manager responded promptly to our minor issues and resolved them quickly. Cons: grills had not been cleaned in far too long, presenting a safety hazard. Musty basement. Minor maintenance issues: some screen doors are bent, some window cranks are stripped. No direct Lake Access from house Overall: fantastic area and a great house for 18. Highly recommend the state parks, especially swallow Falls, and the farmers market in Oakland.
