Modern Lake Chelan cottage & bunk house with dock & hot tub

Waterfront Wonderland

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Welcome to Waterfront Wonderland! This gorgeous, modern cottage and matching bunk house sit on the south shore of Lake Chelan where the incredible views and soothing sounds of the water lapping against the dock will put you and your guests immediately at ease. Whether you're visiting for sunny summer days or the area's autumn glory, Lake Chelan is always generous with its natural beauty.

The main house features a well-equipped, full kitchen with stainless steel appliances and an attached breakfast bar. Enjoy meals indoors or out on the furnished deck where you'll find plenty of patio seating. The living area is warmed by a gas fireplace and is the perfect place to hang with friends and family members while you plan your days or play a few board games. This home also boasts an expansive dock with 100 feet of water frontage for swimming, paddleboarding, and fishing. And after an exciting day out, unwind and relax in the hot tub or the dry sauna out on the deck. When it's time to turn in, this home offers four bedrooms, each with its own en suite bathroom, smart TV, and private entry. For added convenience, an EV charger is also available on-site.

This home is less than two miles from the 235-acre Twenty-Five Mile Creek State Park, and only 18 miles from downtown Chelan. The scenic journey there offers amazing views, charming eateries, and access to several local wineries including Karma, Sorrentos, and Mellisoni. And if you're visiting with kids, Slidewaters, also in Chelan, is a must for all-ages where you can take in panoramic, sweeping views of the lake while you float on their lazy river.

Beautiful Place, Broken Hot Tub
It was a very cool house on a beautiful property with great outdoor spaces, docks, and a lovely walkable swim area. The sauna was nice. The hot tub was nice until it broke on the first night.

Enjoyable
We enjoyed our stay. The view is beautiful. Very quiet. The house is large enough that we weren't tripping on one another. The frying pans were not very good-everything stuck to them. Instructions for the TV would be helpful. The check in information was not clear. The code given didn't specify which door it went to. I was instructed to push the "yellow button"-none for the locks had a yellow button. Plenty of towels.

Beautiful and Practical
This lake house is definitely unique but soooo beautiful and oddly practical!!! The separate bedrooms from the main structure make it easy for parents to let kids have their own room(s) while parents can relax in the master bedrooms. The boat dock on the lake creates a safe spot for anyone to swim and for parents to keep an eye on their little ones as well. The jacuzzi was great, but the real star amenity was the sauna beside it! Hands down amazing place to stay 10/10 would recommend!!!

Beautiful lake home
Beautiful setting, home, view, dock and patio. Not great for small children that can open doors as the water is right there and doors to open to bedrooms are from outside. Great for ladies retreat, couples or families with older children that you would not worry about. The home was very well stocked in the kitchen and furnishings were wonderful. The main house with the one bedroom has pretty small living room . So, if you are there in winter or bad weather be aware of that. I would 100 percent rent again. I had several issures with Vacasa and their customer service. I did let them know. One being we could not get into house and were very thankful for the neighbors saving us and allowing us to use their wonderful beach. They were truly wonderful.

Oasis on the Lake!
Waterfront wonderland is a gem! so peaceful and picturesque with abundant nature ! there is lots of STR to chose from but you will not regret choosing this one for your next long vacay! Very comfortable, relaxing, hot tub was sparkling clean and lake water is so refreshing! Thank you for the great stay and enjoying the olympics too with great TV reception and internet ! best of both worlds for sure. no complaints here!!

No entry code!
This is our second time staying at this house. We love it. However, VRBO did not give us the accurate key code! There’s no cell service in the area. It took us over an hour and one of our kids miraculously guessed the right code! It was late after a long travel day. I hope VRBO gets the information accurate to avoid future guest issues!

A Great Lake front getaway
After being given the wrong code to open doors; We were pleasantly surprised to find a great lakefront home. Its quiet location, easy lake access, and open concept layout made for an exceptional outdoor experience. Thank you hosting my group. We left your home in excellent condition after a great week of catching up.

Family Fun
This is a wonderful place! Great for families, but probably not little kids or folks who have trouble with steps. We are big swimmers and loved the dock and otter Island and the hot tub. Super outdoor spaces to sit and relax or have dinner or a cocktail. We really enjoyed our stay.

Disliked: Check-in, communication, listing accuracy
Disappointing at best!
We stayed at this property over July 4th. Every communication effort the 3 days before the stay was met with a canned response. I asked for contact information via the app in the event we had problems. They told me to refer to the contract which I hadn’t brought with me. They couldn’t provide it. There was a major storm that caused mud to seep into the room with bunk beds. Four family members left two days early because of this. Once we left the property I reached out and notified them and sent pictures. They refuse to make it right because they say we didn’t report it to maintenance during the stay. See above for reason! They wouldn’t provide contact info and replied with canned responses. Someone named Lawana finally called me and refunded $100 for the lack of responsiveness from Vacasa but said it would be a different group to address the loss of time. Now they have gone silent. I’m guessing small claims is my option. After 7 years of booking with VRBO, this is the first time I have ever been forced to leave a negative review. Beware!

Secluded Gorgeous Getaway
Loved, loved, loved this property! It is so unique and has a lot to offer. We enjoyed having the hot tub and being able to jump right into the water. The sauna was really nice after a cold swim and you still have a view of the water. I also loved mornings looking at the calm lake and watching the sun come up over the hills. Only 4 houses in the small cove, so not a lot of neighbors and far enough away from town to get away. Downside was the fruit flies! We tried so hard to keep garbage away and keep doors closed, but they were everywhere. I think the owners should treat the sinks and set out some traps to try to control it. Also, the couch could use a clean as it had stains on it. And as other reviews said, spotty WiFi. So just download your music. Otherwise, great! I didn’t want to leave.

We’ll be back!
Waterfront Wonderland was nothing but an absolute DREAM. I couldn't have picked a better location to reunite our high school friends and spend the weekend just relaxing and taking in the scenery. As someone who stays in rental properties often, I was beyond impressed with the cleanliness, aesthetics, amenities, and every corner of the home....and can we talk about the VIEW? Every morning we woke up to the most glorious landscape of mountains, trees, and the sparkling lake. I highly recommend taking a kayak out in the morning, having a cup of coffee on the balcony, or practicing those fishing skills on the dock! This was the perfect way to kick off Summer in the PNW and we cannot wait to come back again. Thank you Waterfront Wonderland for setting the most gorgeous backdrop and for allowing us to create such beautiful memories that will last a lifetime.

Camping Meets Luxury
Waterfront Wonderland where great detail has been made to ensure you are comfortable and relaxed. Seating everywhere so you can enjoy the amazing beauty just steps away from any room you choose. Where you sleep in the most comfortable, soft beds and cozy up in the most amazing linen and pillows, where you can sit all day outside on any deck and never get bored, where watching TV and having internet doesn’t matter (though it’s available) because why do you need it when you have all this....the hot tub, sauna, fireplace, (no fire ban while we were here)fishing off the private dock, and beautiful grounds. Where else can you go to experience luxury and camping all in one? Where each member of your group has their own private getaway when you just need alone time and still come together anywhere on the deck and have a wonderful time. The owners of this property really thought about their vacationers, comfort and their relaxation, giving us the best indoor/outdoor experience in April. We loved being here every moment and look forward to booking our next vacation here, making this a family destination tradition for years to come. Thank you Blueberry Properties for making this a most memorable glamping vacation!

I would not stay here again, especially with younger kids.
First, the positives: It's right on the water, which would make it a fun place to stay in the summer. It would be a good house for a group of adults only. The beds were very comfortable. The hot tub was nice. Now for the list of problems: Mouse droppings everywhere in the main house, including on our sheets/pillows when we arrived. We flicked them off the bed and tucked that fact away in the back recesses of our minds, not wanting it to be true. But the presence of a scurrying mouse in the kitchen a few days later caused us to pack up and leave a day early. Moving on...I came with my kids which I don't recommend. Each room is it's own suite with an entrance from the outside, meaning that each of my kids had to sleep in their own room with a locked door to the outside and no easy way to connect with each other or us (parents). This meant we needed to keep our doors unlocked at night so they could come over to our place if needed in the middle of the night. It was freezing cold outside and scary to sleep with doors unlocked. My kids struggled and it was stressful for us parents. I had no way of knowing this would be the set up from all the descriptions, pics, and video tour of this property. Third, there is no cell coverage at all and the wifi is so bad we could never use it. I was disconnected from my small business without warning and my kids could only handle so much "connection" time with us playing games and doing puzzles for days on end. We had hoped for at least one movie during this vacation, but never watched any tv or listened to our music. It's amazing how dependent we are on wifi! Supplies were spotty, the hand soap was empty in the main bathroom and there was no dishwashing detergent, something I didn't realize until needing to run my first load of dirty dishes at 8:00 at night. This caused me to begrudgingly drive the hour round trip to Safeway to buy some. Before my trip, I emailed with questions about what kitchen supplies were available, as I was planning to cook Thanksgiving dinner for my family. Someone from Vacasa called me and told me there were NO kitchen supplies other than plates, silverware, and glasses. He said houses especially on the West coast had been removing items due to Covid. So I ended up bringing my whole kitchen: all my small appliances, pots & pans, cutting boards, serving dishes, and a bin full of utensils. When I arrived, there was a mostly stocked kitchen, so of course I was frustrated with being told something untrue and having put so much extra effort (including my partner having to drive a second car to fit everything). I also sent a complaint email after choosing to leave a day early due to the various problems, including a mouse in the kitchen and droppings everywhere. I received a generic response saying someone would contact me to make it right. I still haven't heard from anyone. I will not rent from Vacasa again.

Waterfront Wonderland lives up to its name!!!
We came to stay the last week of September 2020 and our family had a blast! We fished off the dock, kayaked across the lake and just hung out with the tranquility of lake and the views. It is a quiet and private area. You can relax in their jacuzzi enjoying a view of the lakes and mountains. There are activities for all ages. Very nice accommodations with a fully stocked kitchen which we used to prepare all our meals. It sleeps up to twelve people very comfortable with everyone having their own privacy. The grocery store is about fifteen minutes away for any needs.

Lovely Lakeside Getaway
Amazing views of lake Chelan the surrounding hills. The house is big with lots of patio/dock space to move around. The hot tub and sauna are amazing and right on the lake so a nice cold plunge is just a few steps away after sweating it out. It’s about 30 minutes from Lake Chelan so it’s good to have whatever supplies you need ahead of time. The WiFi signal is not very strong, but you won’t want to spend much time connected at this beautiful spot. There weren’t a lot of extra amenities such as toilet paper and dish soap, but overall our stay was very relaxing and enjoyable.

Home acceptable, but so poorly managed
Unclean everywhere, infested w/ ants, no sign of any Covid 19 cleaning details as the website makes a big deal about extra cleaning procedures, we have arrival photos of unclean conditions in all areas of the home. Pantry and fridge were dirty. We didn't use a portion of the pantry because it looked like it hadn't been cleaned in a long time. Cookware was dirty. There were ants in every room, on every surrface. That said, the lakefront, the house itself, the view from every window, peaceful, quiet, and private. We allowed a rating of 3 because the house on the lake was worthy. The management of this property was poor. Communication w Vacasa was completely unacceptable, answers to questions five weeks after the emailed question...no information available until the weekend before the trip , left us begging for information and scrambling to prepare. We will never rent through Vacasa again. We have enjoyed a decade of vacation rentals theou AirBNB and have dozens of well managed trips under our belts all over the world. Vacasa is poorly managed and was completely disappointed in that aspect of our trip.
