Lovely house, great for a big family trip. We came here after our wedding to spend a few days with family who flew in from other countries. The house and view is beautiful. On our first day, driving to the house, we drove past a black bear rummaging through trash next to a house under construction right down the road from The Lodge. We were safe in our car so it was a great experience, and taught us to be extra careful during our stay. The house is spacious and very clean. The view from nearly every room in the house was incredible. My only two issues with the house are small and fairly inconsequential:1. There were absolutely no amenities. In a house rental like this, especially with a kitchen with plenty of cookware, we expected some basic items like coffee. There wasn’t even salt and pepper. We bought food to cook but needed to make a second trip to the grocery store for basics that are usually stocked in such rentals, like salt, pepper, sugar, coffee, shampoo, hand soap, dishwasher detergent, etc. 2. There isn’t a welcome binder/instructions. We got an email with instructions to the management office, where we then got directions to the rental property and check in/out info, but usually there’s some sort of instructional binder in the house. This would have come in handy when we needed to know where to put our trash bags during our stay. Instead I was on a call for a half hour with the management office trying to get this answer, which ended up being incorrect information. Other than this, our stay was so wonderful. Mountain Laurel Chalets wrote us a special note welcoming us after our wedding, and everyone there is so friendly and kind. We would definitely stay there again!
