Our stay at this property was truly exceptional. The location is unbeatable for skiing — you can step right out the door, click into your skis, and access the runs directly from the back of the home. It doesn’t get more convenient than that.Beyond the slopes, the property offers a wonderfully relaxing atmosphere. Unwinding by the fire or soaking in the hot tub while watching skiers glide down the hill was an experience our group thoroughly enjoyed.Jenna, the owner, was outstanding to work with and went above and beyond to ensure our trip was seamless and special for all four families in our group. Her hospitality made a great stay even better.The heated igloo was a unique and cozy gathering space, and the home itself is spacious, beautifully maintained, and perfectly suited for larger groups.We couldn’t have asked for a better getaway and are already looking forward to booking our next stay.

Bachelor Weekend Golf Trip

What a fantastic place to stay! We played golf for both days and relaxed at the house. The hot tub was amazing after a couple rounds of golf and the place was super homey. Would definitely plan another trip there!

This is about the 4th time we have stayed at this cabin but our first time under these owners. It’s even better than before! AND they decorated it so cute for Christmas too! The place is great being right on the ski slope and they have added hotel conveniences like shampoo, bath towels, detergent, coffee, etc. I felt like I was being high maintenance because I kept messaging the owners with questions. They were so nice and responded quickly every time. It snowed a bunch and we asked to have the driveway plowed because we couldn’t get up and they had someone there within a few hours. BTW you will need four-wheel drive for this place - ESPECIALLY if there is snow. We had a great time! Highly recommend!

Great location!!

We loved the property location. Easy ski in and ski out. Hot tub was amazing and the fire pit was nice. It was a lot smaller than the pictures look. It was tough to get everyone into a soft seat together after skiing all day. Besides that it was great!!

Gorgeous secluded cabin getaway

Very secluded, tons of sleeping, great large patio with portable warmers. Sound system was a great touch. Fire pit had great seating, and all campfire materials were provided. Even with a large group the home felt extremely private on the mountain. Highly recommend for large groups, we will be back.

Annual Ski Trip

Loved our stay at Chalet Social for our annual ski trip with 5 families! We enjoyed the luxury of being at a true ski in/out location for the first time—being able to ski past our little ones and babies to check in was a memory we’ll never forget! Make sure your vehicle has 4WD during times of snowfall. Even with 4WD we had a heck of a time getting all of our vehicles up the steep driveway.

This Chalet Slays

We LOVED staying here! The location was perfect and the convenience of the ski-in/ski-out was definitely worth the price. We had everything we needed and more. The fire pit and hot tub were amazing for ski breaks. It's seriously a winter wonderland. Several people skiing by asked us about the property. Will definitely book again :) *** Do not ignore the instructions *** You absolutely need 4WD to get up the driveway in the snow

We loved Chalet Social!!

This house is amazing! You can’t beat the location!! We had 5 families with kids ranging from 3-13. It’s right off Chick’s Choice (green) making it very easy for everyone to access throughout the day. The fire pit, igloo, and hot tub were very fun amenities to have. It’s apparent how much TLC the owners give this place to ensure you have everything you need for an enjoyable stay. Jenna was very helpful and responsive. One call out is that the driveway is very steep, definitely recommend 4 wheel drive. We loved our stay and will definitely be back!!

Northern Michigan Family Vacation

Our family vacation in Northern Michigan was absolutely perfect, largely thanks to booking this amazing home in an ideal location. Although only five of us stayed in the house, we hosted several large family dinners throughout the week, and the space was perfect for it.The outdoor area was fantastic for games and activities, and the spacious deck was ideal for dining and entertaining. The grill was large and worked perfectly. Inside, the host provided thoughtful amenities including a full coffee bar, shower essentials (shampoo, conditioner, and body wash in every bathroom), laundry detergent, and plenty of towels, including beach towels.We especially enjoyed relaxing in the jacuzzi most evenings. While we didn’t get a chance to use the ping pong table in the garage or visit the Shanty Creek pool (for which the host generously provided keys), it was great to have those options available.The home itself has wonderful character and a welcoming, positive vibe. The beds were very comfortable, and the location was perfect, just a short drive to both Bellaire and Torch Lake.We couldn’t recommend this property more. Truly a 12/10 experience!

About the host

Hosted by Jenna Angott

Host profile image
I love living life to the fullest and embrace every moment. I am an extremely social person and have reflected my outgoing personality into Chalet Social.

Why they chose this property

This is the perfect getaway spot in Northern Michigan that is perfect for avid skiers and is only 90 seconds from the first tee at Schuss Shanty course. The Chalet has the best of both worlds for all season action.

What makes this property unique

Great for groups of people - especially if some ski and some don't; or if some golf and some don't; or if some want to sleep in and others are early risers... great home for friends and family to enjoy the beautiful Shanty Creek Resort - we overlook nothing except all of Michigan!
