There’s no place like (this) home.

I knew before even seeing this house in person that it was going to be something special. The owner, Janet, was so helpful and patient with me. As expected, the house was beautiful and very comfortable. We will definitely try to stay here again.

Loved my first trip to Chelan

Carma Cottage was a perfect location and home for my first trip to Chelan. The cottage was just the right size for two couples and the location directly on the water was just what we had hoped for. Host was extremely responsive to all our questions/needs, the unit was very well stocked and very clean. Felt like home the minute we arrived.

The house was so clean and comfortable with great lake views

We had a great family vacation with our daughter, her husband and our two young granddaughters. Having our own dock with direct access to the lake was amazing. Janet was very nice and made sure everything went so smoothly. We would love to return for another stay.

Fabulous spot in Chelan!

This home is a gem in a great location with everything you need to have a perfect vacation. Well appointed, particularly the kitchen - everything you could ever need was there, including thoughtful touches like hot chocolate, coffee and spices - and exceptionally clean. Our group couldn't have been happier. Comfy beds and plenty of space with a fun loft. Close to town and great dock on the water for fun in the sun. Janet was an amazing host, incredibly responsive and so accommodating. Thank you for a great stay. We can't wait to return.

Everything in this lake house was perfect. Cleanliness, furnishings, comfortable beds, spaciousness. We couldn’t of asked for more. The view is spectacular. We especially loved the lakefront deck, swimming/boating dock, and the lift for a boat and a Jet ski. . Host was super responsive.
