Loved the property! The house was comfortable and had everything we needed for the weekend. Loved having coffee on the deck each morning. The kitchen was well stocked. The master mattress could use a mattress topper. Outside was beautiful! The dock was good, easy to kayak from. Would definitely stay here again!
Scott was a great host and kept in contact regularly. House was very clean and had everything we needed. Great location and beautiful property. Thank you again.

Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re so glad you enjoyed the peaceful setting, lake fun, and all the little touches. It’s wonderful to hear the house had everything you needed for a relaxing stay and that you appreciated the view and ambience. We’d be happy to welcome you back anytime!
We really enjoyed our stay at the Wapato Lake Waterfront Retreat! The area around the home, and lake, were quiet which we all appreciated. Lake access was great, a short walk from the house up and down hill. The dock was large enough for a few folks to lounge on, and the ladder was well attached for easy access in and out of the water. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed. Lots of wineries near by, and the main strip in Manson was a short drive away. Scott was easily reachable and checked in during our stay.

Thank you for the kind review! I'm so glad you enjoyed the peaceful surroundings, lake access, and the dock setup. It’s great to hear the kitchen had everything you needed and that you were able to explore the nearby wineries and Manson. I appreciate you mentioning communication as well—it was a pleasure hosting you. We hope to host you again!
Beautiful home nice and spacious. Great to have the downstairs be separate. Upstairs nice and cool great porch. Loved having the dock and the paddle board. The only negatives would be couldn’t figure out the coffee machine and that there was no air conditioning downstairs. Other than that we had an amazing time. I would definitely come back, views outstanding.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! I'm really glad you enjoyed the space, especially the porch, dock, and paddle board—it’s great to hear you had a relaxing time. I appreciate the notes about the coffee machine as I realize now that we do not have instructions. I have added instructions to make a single cup from pod, single cup from ground coffee, and to brew a Carafe to our digital guide book. This will give future guests all the info they need. We hope to host you again in the future.
Wow, what a location and house. My family and I made a last minute decision to go to Lake Chelan to take a break from work and we could not have chosen a better place. I didn’t pay too close attention to the pictures and, to be honest, I thought it was on Lake Chelan. It wasn’t. It’s on Wapato Lake which is about 10 minutes from Manson. We’ve been to Chelan 4-5 times overt the last 4-5 years and this was the best stay we’ve ever had. The location is stunning. The pictures do not do it justice. The view from the deck and the main floor living space is beyond beautiful. Lake Wapato is a quiet, peaceful, breathtaking location. We had no idea. This place is a bargain for what you get and it’s the perfect distance from Lake Chelan which can get crowded in the summer. Inside the house everything was what you’d want. It was clean, the kitchen was well stocked, and the beds were comfortable. The best part though were the details. The towels were soft. The TV had legit cable so we didn’t have to log in to numerous accounts to watch the World Cup. You know that conversation you always have at a VRBO when you turn to someone and say something like, “I wish they had x, or y, or Z?” The house had that thing. In our case it was sandwich sized ziplocks. The dock is lovely. The gardens are peaceful and beautiful. We could not have been more pleased with this house. We will be returning and we strongly recommend you consider this place for your next family getaway.

It means a lot to hear that our home exceeded your expectations. We truly appreciate your recommendation and can't wait to welcome you and your family back for another relaxing stay!
The pictures posted do not do justice to how pretty and peaceful this property is. We lucked out with amazing weather and having a lake to splash around in after a long bike ride was amazing. I cannot recommend this property enough. Scott was a great host and responded quickly to questions.
