Very relaxing with a caveat

Home was fantastic. Clean, comfortable and all amenities needed. Screaming kids across the way were not so fantastic, but it happens. Will definitely come back.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Very nice place to stay with easy check in and quite clean. Dissappointed in there were not enough bath towels and swim towels. 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. Overall many supplies and very clean place!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We rented this house for ourselves, kids, and grandkids to celebrate my husband’s retirement/birthday. Everyone had a great time! 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!

The home was spotless, beautifully decorated, and thoughtfully equipped with nearly everything we needed. The resort was a dream for the kids, with a safe play area, plenty of space to run around, and fantastic amenities. The location was also convenient and close to downtown and nearby Manson. A perfect spot for making lasting family memories — we can’t wait to come back!

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.

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. The staff were all so helpful and always pleasant! Can’t wait to return to the Lookout!

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.

Fantastic family weekend.

This home was beautiful and had everything we needed to spend a relaxing, long weekend in Chelan. The property had lots of amenities to meet everyone’s needs - beautiful swimming pools and playgrounds and safe sidewalks for roaming with our dog! The kitchen was so well stocked it made creating meals a breeze! Loved our stay!

We were so happy with our stay at "Independence." The property is new and the amenities are amazing. Two community pools, private beach, pet areas, hot tubs, kids playgrounds, BBQ areas, running trails, etc. We so loved our stay here that we can't wait to sit down and plan the next trip

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.

Beautiful home, but missing critical details on VRBO

Unfortunately there was critical information missing on the VRBO listing that we later found out (not until after arrival) is included on The Lookout's website. The home is in the middle of a very active, very loud construction site. When we arrived Friday evening there were construction workers all over the place, loud machinery being operated, etc. We had to close all of the blinds as soon as we walked in because of how uncomfortable we felt having people working just a few feet outside the front windows. It was a huge turn off and nearly ruined our trip. That being said - the property manager was extremely responsive, helpful, and couldn't have been more apologetic about the mixup. The home itself is beautiful, and once construction is complete it will be an amazing rental. It was very clean, comfortable, and had everything one would need. The king-sized bed was very comfortable and the layout of the home would be great for any sized group. Note that the construction IS present on Saturdays as well and we could hear the lovely sounds of heavy machinery as we drank our morning coffee. We would definitely return once the construction is complete!

Beautiful community and the house has everything you need!

We enjoyed our stay at Independence during a school break when we just needed a change of scenery during COVID. We loved the location -- close to restaurants, stores, etc and a beautiful view! We were able to enjoy sledding in the snow on a small hill in the community and also at the local golf course sledding hill. The hot tub was also a hit with our kids. The house had everything we needed for our stay. The only downside was the construction next door, which was mentioned in a previous review. No fault of the rental property, but worth considering if you are not early risers. Construction noises started at 7AM. Also, there is an issue with evenly heating the home. Upstairs bedrooms were 10+ degrees warmer than the downstairs and it was challenging to balance out the temperature so that everyone was comfortable. Would recommend that the property include sleds for those visiting during the winter months. We bought some cheap ones, but it would be have been great just to pull some out of the storage closet. Would recommend this home for a getaway and we hope to check out other properties in The Lookout community this summer! Stop by Stormy Mountain Brewing for great food and brews while you are in town. We all loved it!
