    Lookout beach front with no water
    Dalton H.

    The lookout has great homes to rent for families but if you're coming here for a family trip intending to take a shuttle down to the lake side amenities for swimming with kids in the wadding pool etc. we came during the week day and when I wife called for the shuttle that was advertised for the beach access it was only Saturday Sunday and no one told us that at booking. We hiked down by foot with a 2 and 4 year old. Sadly to find out there wasn't any water in the kids wading area and it was 85 degrees. We eventually had to hike back up a switch back style STEEEP hill with our kids which was very uncomfortable and hard for our kids. So again the houses were great but the lake side really sucked and the communication by The Lookout Chelan was very poor. Not to mention watching the workers zip around on what looked to be the lake shuttles for up and down to the for maintenance didn't make us feel any better. Won't be returning for a family trip. Maybe this location is best for adults.

    Nice view, huh?!

    We've stayed here before and had a good experience at the "One More Minute" vacation home. We rented a different vacation home this time, "Joie de Vivre" because we had more family joining us. First of all, the website of this particular home shows awesome views of the lake WHICH IS WHY I rented this particular home! No one bothered to update their photos or description of the house because there were about 500 trees planted in BACK OF THE HOUSE so NO view!! I believe these were referred to as "spite" trees because the owner of the property in back of this location planted them for the express purpose of blocking the views of the Lookout. Other then a deceptive website, our stay was a fun time. The housekeeping and maintenance were very good and responsive and there were plenty of activities for both the adults and children. Showing pics of what the house's view was supposed to be and what we actually got.

    I enjoyed my time away the look out was a great place to make memories. There was 23 of us two different houses. The kids enjoyed themselves the adults enjoyed themselves. We made many memories.

    Bikes came with our rental

    We planned a last minute trip to Chelan, but couldn't find a house on VRBO that was available on short notice. I searched the web and found the site to The Lookout. After I learned that the developer is the same as Seabrook in Pacific Beach, I knew we would like the community. It was a gorgeous drive up to Chelan and the location is up on a hill overlooking the lake. They do warn you that it is an active construction site and it is. The development is smaller than Seabrook and has lesser number of homes, but that may soon change once all the homes are built and the marina completed. We stayed at the Chinook Cottage and loved it. The best part is the low season rates they offer. They have about 10 houses that are vacation rentals ranging from two to 4 bedroom homes. As a renter, you get to enjoy the amenities The Lookout has to offer. While we were there, they hosted a happy hour on Saturday serving wine and cheese - a chance to meet and mingle with other residents and vacationers. We were told the marina opens in June with a second pool, hot tub, event lawn, bocce, dock and sandy beach. Kris, the manager onsite is friendly and helpful. We have already recommended The Lookout to friends. We will be back!

    The Lookout is a great place for Westsiders to enjoy the Chelan Lifestyle and have vacation rental income. The Lookout makes it easy!

    Windermere Vacation Rentals - Brand new tennis ball. My fiancé brought it in for my 2.5 year old niece to play with.

    If I could give it 0 stars I gladly would…read more Our stay Friday 6/3 thru Sunday 6/5 was fabulous, but what happened when we left has been a nightmare to deal with. My family has a small house in Chelan Falls, but a pipe burst so we needed a place to stay for a wedding. I found this place on VRBO which was perfect for my fiancé, sister, brother in law, two nieces under 2 years old, and myself. Come Monday morning I woke up at 6am and checked my personal emails. I was notified that I'd be charged $500 because they found a pet toy and animal hair in our unit which was against their policy. I was in disbelief and thought that they had to have had the wrong room - this was clearly a mistake. Neither my sister or I own a dog. I'm actually allergic. Out of all of the VRBO and Airbnb options why would I, and IF I owned a dog, decide to stay in a place that didn't allow them and risk a $500 fee? There are places to stay cheaper than that. Right away I called the front desk number and was furious asking what happened. They ended up hanging up on me. It took me 3 days to reach a Supervisor, Ellie, and 4 days to reach Jonathan (the Manager). Since I wasn't getting any answers I filed for fraud on my credit card, and let management know that I filed and will not be paying the fee regardless. I requested copies of the photos and finally 8 days later received them. The dog toy was one of my fiancés brand new tennis balls that he brought in for the girls to play with, and the dog hair "everywhere" in the apartment was my fiancés hair located on the pillows and head area of the bed. To top of off management said someone tried to get a hold of me that Monday to inform me, which was total BS because I called the front desk line between 6-7am and by that time the $500 charge was pending. When I get my new CC I will need to still deal with this and update payment on multiple accounts. Oh and to top it off the hide a bed has yellow stains on the white sheets. Unit 626 for those wondering. My sister did not want to complain because overall they seemed clean and it was only a stain. I brought this up to Ellie, the Supervisor, to which I kid you not she replied "Yes, I've heard that before". Then do something about it! I then grew concerned that the stain was from previous people and they had a dog that peed on the sheets. No one has apologized for the assumptions targeted towards me and resulted in 4 days of follow up with ongoing issues to get my new CC setup.. No one has offered to make this right. The fingers get pointed in different directions. There needs to be liability by the owner of the condo for stained sheets and management for wrongful accusations. To make it more complicated they hire a 3rd party company to do inspections. So at this point you have the condo owner, VRBO, management at the Grandview, Windermere, their third party inspection company, and third party customer service line. WTF - no wonder no one is holding any accountability. The scary thing is, is that this can happen to anyone, and it makes me wonder how many times they've gotten away with this behavior? Based on these reviews, ample amount of times. Never staying here again, and I caution you to take images of everything if you do in order to protect yourself.

Upon arrival, we went up to park, after hours, and were rudely lectured by a staff member that where we were parking we weren't allowed. I am so thankful that my husband was nearby in the truck because had I been approached the way I was by the staff member in the parking lot I would fear for an extreme safety issue. There was ZERO parking, anywhere near the facility, we had to park a mile away and hike in (middle of the night, pouring rain out). We went to find closer parking throughout next day and still there was nothing closer. The staff at the facility was not helpful and extremely rude about the parking, with no empathy that it was completely pouring rain and guests having to walk GREAT lengths just to get to their rooms. It notes that parking is tight and most units allowed 1 car maximum well this wasn't the case, there was 0 parking anywhere even along the street and across the street were completely full! We called the 509-682-2582 provided to speak to someone regarding our concerns and ask about cancelling the rest of the trip we were, again, rudely spoken to about our reservations, this time was about us making the reservations through a third-party (VRBO) and that they couldn't help with our stay. But all the paperwork I have is from Grandviewonthelake (their website) not VRBO - I thought that I made the reservation through their website. At the end of the first day we opted to just get a different hotel that had parking for their guests and staff that were friendly and accommodating. I would not EVER recommend this hotel to anyone nor Windermere Vacation rentals to just add to the terrible guest experience.

    Sage Vacation Rentals - The stunning Summit Pool House!

    Overall, the house was subpar. It certainly did not meet our expectation for a house that cost us…read moreover $3,000 for 6 nights. It was obvious from the layer of dust on nearly everything that the house had been cleaned then remained empty for an extended period of time. The water pressure was nearly non-existent due to hard water residue and build up in the water lines. On more than one occasion pebbles came out with the water. The water also smelled like rotten eggs. There were multiple RAT TRAPS left in various rooms in the house which is extremely dangerous considering that we had 3 small children with us (age - 15 months, 13 months & 3 years). Had they stuck their hand in the trap they would have been SERIOUSLY INJURED. Why would Sage Rentals leave RAT TRAPS lying around the house? We also found RAT DROPPINGS in 2 bath tubs. Again, proof on top of proof that the house hadn't been cleaned in a long time. The dock was in HORRIBLE condition and should either be repaired or removed. It was in such poor condition that boards would pop up when walked over and would shake to the point that we had to block it off to prevent our children (who cant swim) from walking on it. Even if they wanted to walk on it, they couldn't because it was blanketed in bird droppings (as was the lawn). There was also a sunken boat lift at the end of the dock that was nothing more than a swimming hazzard (I guess it was a good thing that we couldn't jump off the dock). None of the cookware, dishes, cups, silverware, etc were washed. We had to do two loads of dishes before we could prepare a meal. One of the kitchen stools was broken to the point that it couldn't be used. There was a plastic bowl under the sink to catch dripping water that smelled horrific. We were also unable to get hot water in the kitchen and the microwave didn't work. To be honest, there were far to many issues to continue to list. You guys obviously don't care!!!" Thomas Crumpton

The…read morefacilities were pretty nice, although the garage parking spaces were cramped and we found stains all over our mattresses when we pulled up the sheets for check out. We were also woken up at 6am on Saturday morning by a fire alarm going off. The security code situation is a little confusing. If you stay here, the COMMON AREA code is apparently the one you use for the garage too, but it's not clearly stated in the app. I will give props to Sage for responding quickly when I called them around 9pm to get that information. Lastly, the posters they have around the condo were dated as they tell you to call someone upon checkout to let them know you're leaving, but when I called that person told me they hadn't worked for Sage Rentals in over a year and were none too pleased that I was calling them at 8am on a Sunday morning. Otherwise - it was well furnished, comfortable, and close enough to the local attractions to be convenient without being downtown.

    We had a really wonderful stay at Campbell's Resort in Lake Chelan. The biggest thing you're paying…read morefor here is the absolutely beautiful view from every room... it's stunning and really makes the whole experience special. The service throughout the resort was also excellent. My husband attends a physical therapy conference here every year, and the staff always does a great job taking care of everyone and making the event run smoothly. The only downside would be that the rooms are starting to show their age. As a business owner myself, I completely understand that renovating and updating an entire property is a big financial decision. That said, it does feel like the rooms are reaching the point where a refresh would really elevate the experience. I imagine that will happen eventually. One of the highlights of the stay was the restaurant, which is just steps away from the rooms. We ate there multiple times and every single thing we ordered was really good. The quality of the food was consistently excellent and the servers were kind and attentive. They also had live music on Friday night, and the woman performing when we were there was incredibly talented and made the evening even more enjoyable. Overall, we had a great stay and would absolutely come back again. The location, views, service, and restaurant make it a really special place to visit in Lake Chelan.

    I wish I could give this resort a five star rating, because I love it, but I can't…read more We brought our children to Campbell's every summer for many years, along with several other families, usually about 20 to 25 people. So very fun. We have not been able to come back for about 10 years. We were looking forward to our, now adult and married, children being together (separate rooms), hoping to start a second generation of this tradition. The day my husband and I checked in we noticed an odor in our room as soon as we walked in the door. I checked to see there were no old garbage or damp used towels. I put baking soda down all the drains. I looked everywhere, but could not discern where the odor was coming from. It never went away. Very sad. We were also disappointed in the restaurant upstairs. The service was extraordinarily slow. The food was ho-hum. The hollandaise sauce was tasteless. Please, please fix this!!!
