We had the best family weekend here! The house was perfect, the check in process so easy, and the location was so close to downtown. We loved swimming at the pools and the marina. The community activities that happen daily are incredible! We will definitely be back!

Our extended family stayed here and it was a great experience. House was clean and well furnished. Loved the main for living space, kitchen opening up to the family room, comfortable for our large group. The porch was a beautiful place to relax, chat, read, and have a meal. The fire pit area was nice. The rooms worked well for our family, nice to have the full size bunks downstairs. An extra shower would have been helpful but we made it work. The shuttles to and from the lake were easy to get, stopping right outside the house. The lake area was better than expected, nice to have the chairs and umbrellas down there. Our family really enjoys playing yard games so having the common grassy area so close was perfect. We had a fantastic week and made lots of great memories, thank you!

Arrived on a Friday afternoon. More than enough room for family, however, was disappointed that Master Bedroom was not on lower level.
That evening, while getting supper ready, noticed water on the floor coming from the refrigerator and/or freezer. Wiped it up, then water again on Sunday/Monday.
Double doors facing road, plastic (?) on threshold was coming up.
Had no internet on Friday. Maintenance came out on Saturday afternoon and hooked up the internet.
All things considering, our stay was okay. Sorry, but as much as I like the Chelan area, probably won't consider staying at the Lookout in the near future.

We have been coming to Chelan for 20 years and five to the Lookout. Appreciate the owners of "You had me at Merlot" sharing their home. It was wonderful. Only items not working were the fridge had a small water leak and the fan in the upstairs bathroom didn't work. My only input would be to have check-in by 3:00 and allow for early check-in if arrangements have been made. Check out at 11:00 is perfect. We traveled 3 hours and arrived early, but could not get in until 4:00. That was a let down.

The house was so beautifully decorated, clean, and had everything we could possibly need (and somethings we didn't even know we'd need!).
Perfect house for 10 women for a bachelorette wine weekend. Can't recommend this place enough!

The rental management community and communication with them was great. The house needed a little bit renovation at some places especially furnitures and carpets. The kitchen was ok. According to the price range, tools can be upgraded. Animals are allowed and this requires deeper cleaning. Under the furnitures were so dirty. Overall was a good stay.

Our family decided to try a new city for this year’s family reunion and this property at Lake Chelan met every item on our list. There was room for everyone in this new, modernly furnished home within the Lookout community. We were delighted with the pools, private beach, convenient shuttles, and optional water activities like jet ski rentals. Each morning we walked to coffee shops within one mile of the house. We visited wineries, the farmer’s market, outdoor concerts, and shops. We had nightly swims, bocce ball games, s’mores and Pickleball tournaments. Once the kids were in bed, we chatted in the comfortable outdoor seating around the fire pits. This location has it all!

Not truthful. We arrived at a beautiful well stocked home to unbearable construction and landscaping jobs all around the home on every street. Before I booked this location I called the rental management to make sure this was NOT in a construction zone. They assured me it was not, false information.

We spent an enjoyable 2 weeks at this property. It was spotlessly clean, well appointed and very comfortable. The only downside was noise and dust from construction work that was taking place adjacent to the home.

Good trip for the family. Liked the fire pit and rocking chairs. Good locations to the pool and plenty of parking.
The house was not very clean, at all. That is where any negative side comes from. And no real indication if things were sanitized. General dirt, dust, and cobwebs were evident. For the $300 cleaning fee, and $100 pet fee - It didn’t seem like the house was at the standard of cleanliness as you’d hope.
