Cute Chalet, Conveniently Located

My husband and I enjoyed our recent stay at Bali’s Cottage. Check-in was easy, the chalet was exactly as described, and Lisa and Baker are very quick to respond to any questions/concerns. Recommend for those looking to take advantage of WLE’s wonderful amenities during their stay. A short drive from Promise Land State Park, and Hawley, PA.

Wedding Weekend Stay

We were minutes away from the venue for our nephew’s wedding and it was perfect! The house was exactly as described and Lisa was truly an attentive and responsive host! The house was clean, comfortable and had plenty of room for the 5 family members staying to celebrate the wedding. We would highly recommend the cottage for any interested renters!

Comfy Cozy Chalet in Wallenpaupack Lake Estates!

Bali's Cottage was absolutely adorable. It is exactly as pictured, so cute and extremely clean! The beds and bedding reminded me of hotel quality and it was so nice that all bedding and towels were provided. Plenty of towels were given, we had extra sets that we didnt even use. A sweet added touch was the travel toiletries and starter snacks and supplies that were provided. The chalet was perfect for our group of 6, myself and husband, my parents, and our 2 sons aged 7 and 10. We brought fans with as we werent sure how cool the AC would be, but it worked great so we didnt need them. Fans were also already provided in each room. There was plenty of hot water that we were all able to shower back to back and not run out. The estate itself is also awesome! Everything is super close to the house, about a 15 minute walk to the farthest away lake and pool and about a 3 minute walk to the closest. There is parking at each lake and pool so you can also choose to drive. The lake areas with beach access were so nice and empty! I felt like we were on our own private island. The pools are beautiful and also kept very clean. The activities were very nice as well. We did ceramics with the kids and the adult water aerobics. The 2 pools each have a cute snack. We checked out some local restaurants as well and Lisa and Baker were kind enough to give us some of their favorite recommendations. They responded asap to messages and were so helpful! We truly had the best vacation at Bali's Cottage!

Laid back lake house near community pool and playground

This is a two-bedroom lake house with a loft and living room to sleep more. It is near the community pool and playground and game room, with easy parking and lots of deer visible nearby. Trees keep it shady and everyone slept well. Owners very helpful and communicative. We had a good time!

Lovely property !

We stayed here for 4 nights with family (2 adults, 2 teens, 2 seniors). Absolutely loved this cozy home. Very clean and fully stocked with all essentials. The neighborhood was super safe as a part of the well maintained community. Easy drive to grocers, coffee shop and lake. The community also has a well maintained beach and swimming pool. We were a bit nervous with the new listing but do not worry. The house is amazing and we highly recommend.

Cozy Chalet Rental

There is always risk in renting, especially with a new listing, but from start to finish this was a 10/10 experience. The property owner immediately communicated with us when I completed my booking. I had a minor question about accommodations and she immediately came back with answers. The property and home was exactly as described and met all expectations. The house was very clean and my young kids loved every second of their time there. The intro package at the house was super helpful and was clear and concise, so didn’t need to ask any questions. I communicated when we left the property and Lisa came right back! She was excellent and easy to reach. My family owns property and rents in WLE and said our experience was a 10/10, as well. Thank you, LISA!
