The Element Chalet is as beautiful as it presents on VRBO. Immaculately clean, beautiful color patterns in all the rooms, and an amazing deck. The owner is very responsive and a pleasure to work with. We would highly recommend this property.

Amazing House with Full Privacy

I booked this trip to celebrate my parents 50th Anniversary with my siblings and all their family members. Communication with the owner was very responsive. The house was everything I expected plus some. I really enjoyed the ambiance at night with the lighting around the back porch and the fire pit. My only regret or complaint was that we booked in June. I wish it was winter so we could have enjoyed the local ski resort. If we ever get the chance to go back to Bethel, we will stay here again. If you stay here and are looking for a great short trail with an amazing view in the summer then you have to go to Step Falls. It was about 15 minutes away and off all 13 guests that stayed here, all of the said that Step Falls was the best place visited while staying here.Don't let this gem in the mountains get picked up by someone else!

Almost as promised

The house is in good condition and as listed for the most part, but a few things are a bit of a stretch. The arcades are tiny and barely work, the pool table is a toy one not real and the outdoor lawn itself is in shambles though the spa pool and sauna are nice. View is very good, house is clean. 2 of the king bed rooms are pretty small. The primary is very nice. Everything was closed in the area when we visited. I imagine this is a great place during ski season but overpriced for what it is during offseason.
