Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: First time to Chelan for our family. House was great and the Lookout property is well maintained and everything is easily accessible.

comfortable and lovely!

Thank you for providing such a lovely space for our family to enjoy while we were in town for a wedding. It was nice to be able to come back after a long day and feel like you could unwind like one would at home. Lots of construction all around, but once the development is more complete, I can see how it will be a really great place to bring families for a vacation.

Fantastic Weekend Home!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend away at Independence and loved the home. We had 4 kids and 2 adults and had beds to spare. The kitchen was well prepared for a big family and we loved the ice maker in the pantry! Unfortunately the WiFi wasn't working for 2 days (something about a new modem or new router that wasn't authenticated) so we couldn't watch football as planned. But overall, the home is wonderful.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The Independence was our ideal vacation home! The house was super clean and had every amenity you would ever want. Endless bath and beach towels, a fully stocked kitchen with three different coffee makers, crock pot, nice pots and pans, every gadget imaginable,even tupperwares for leftovers. My favorite was the commercial grade ice maker! The property is perfect, too, with two pools, easy access to a beach, marina, and boat/jet ski rentals.

Quite a few short. We called and they sent them over.Toilet was plugged and maintenance could not fix it so husband did. Toilet paper roll holders needed repair also and screws to fix them needed to be ordered according to maintenance. Dust pan unavailable too and could not supply it.

There is so much to do here with the pools, trails, pickleball, bocce ball, and playgrounds for the young ones. The house was well equipped and comfortable. We also had dinner at the winery and enjoyed beautiful lake views while there. This was our second time renting a house here, and we’ll probably go back again!

Fun in the Sun!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was perfect for 3 sets of adults and little kids. Few toys or other entertainment (have been in houses with pool tables, etc.) but they did have games/puzzles. The house was uneven in the air conditioning--cold downstairs and hot upstairs but they did have ceiling fans. Every kind of dish available for use. Ice machine was great. House was super cute! Pool just a short walk away. Hilltop just a short walk away.

Quiet Getaway

Independence was like new, welcoming, and had every amenity. The hot tub worked well and was paired perfect with a glass of wine. The main strip of Lake Chelan was only a 2 min drive away. The on site pool was huge and not over crowded. Whether we stayed indoors or outdoors there was plenty to do.

Spring Break fun!

Independence is a great home for a family vacation. We had nine of us and fit just fine. Beds are comfortable. Kitchen is stocked! There are a couple of drawbacks that are temporary. There is a lot of construction and landscaping going on right next door and in front of home. Noisy from 7-7 on weekdays. Very dusty. And, workers within 10 ft of you when sitting on the porch. Not relaxing. The outdoor furniture needs updating. New bbq is great. Thanks for a good week.
