About this property

Choose these views and a great house!

Perched on a prime spot overlooking the lake across from Manson Bay, this a great choice for your stay. No surprises here, just a nice home in a cool, safe setting that is close enough to the action without the noise and traffic. Look at the pictures and read our 5-star reviews. Our home features large bedrooms, nice bathrooms, an open dining / well stocked kitchen and a wonderful fenced in yard with relaxing gardens and a pergola dining deck. Soak in the large, jetted master bedroom tub and enjoy the central AC on those hot summer days. The garage is also a game room with lake views. Only 5 minutes to the State Park Beach, a 20-minute scenic drive into town, 10 minutes to the nearest winery, but light years from city noise and traffic, this is a great non condo option for families, couples and friends who want space and a place to create some great memories and chill. If you want peace and quiet away from the crowds and 180 degrees viewing of this picturesque valley and the critters that inhabit it, this is your place. Peaceful, private, and 1 mile from the State Park beaches, watercraft rentals and boat launch. Use the money you'll save staying with us for your daytime adventures. Rent watercraft. Take a wine tour. Ride the Ferry Boat to Stehekin for a day trip. Go to your relatives wedding event, family reunion, or in town activities then come home to your quiet, happy place and get a good night’s sleep. This is our happy place, too, as we live next door, so no parties, reunions or events allowed, no more than eight people allowed on site. Boats and trailers can park on the owners' driveway next door, on the lakeshore road shoulder below the house, or at the State Park launch area. Don't pay more to get less and be with the crowd in crowded, noisy places when you can choose this view, these gardens, and peace and quiet that comes with a nice clean house that isn’t that far from the adventures guests seek in Chelan. Owner checks in all guests so please be transparent in your booking requests so you and us will both have a great stay! Read the reviews and our rules section.

Family trip!

Our little family booked this for a week to enjoy some lake time and sunshine. Could not have picked a better spot. Tom went out of his way to make our arrival smooth and carefree. This property is clearly well-cared for and made for a spectacular stay, peaceful and quiet. Would book again in a heartbeat. Thanks so much Tom!

Perfect for the family

We booked last minute and wasnt sure what to expect given lack of available options but were delighted at every turn. The house is more than adequate and the garden was lovely. We were greeted by a family of deer walking down the hill late Saturday afternoon, just perfect for the kods. Its good to know you can still find those peaceful spots around the lake without having to mortgage your house to pay for it. worth y

Lovely Chelan vacation

We had a wonderful stay in Lake Chelan at this lovely Lake Chelan home. Good location that was an easy drive to the lake, wineries and downtown. Very private and peaceful location! The house was clean, very spacious with a wonderful outdoor space and fantastic view. The owner was easy to communicate with and made sure we had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. We definitely recommend this vacation home!

Beautiful views

Gorgeous views, quiet, and private. Loved the property, owner was very helpful, gracious and even decorated for our birthday celebration with lovely flowers from his garden. This property was close to the state park, not too far from town to visit. We had games to enjoy as a family, and a lovely pergala to sit and enjoy the nature sounds with the quiet. My favorite ammenity of the oroperty was the large jetted tub.

Relaxing time with a great view!

The family enjoyed their time on the property. The owner of the property was very thorough in communicating directions and ensured that he was present to guide us through the property when we checked in. This was much appreciated! The house was well equipped with necessities in the kitchen such as paper towels, aluminum foil, plastic baggies and spices. Thank you for thinking of the things that we would have easily forgotten. We also found the house to be very clean and well appointed with comfortable furniture. We especially enjoyed the outside courtyard and gazebo! The drive into the property is a bit of a climb. The advice of an all-wheel drive vehicle was appreciated. We would gladly stay at this property again.

Chelan Getaway

This property is phenomenal. It has a helicopter view of the north and south parts of Chelan due to being high up the mountainside. It is very private. The driveway is very steep but very well groomed. There is a beautiful garden to relax in complete with hammock. Mule deer come very close to property and it is fun to watch them grazing while relaxing in the garden pergola. Bird watching off the hook. The house is spacious with 3 bedrooms. It was perfect for our whole family to get away all together. We enjoyed cooking in large kitchen with a view from every window. We brought our food in coolers when we arrived which is the way to go as the main store is in the town of Chelan 20 min away. We did go to town to enjoy city park swimming, shopping. The state park is five minutes from property but was full for day use. We went to 25 mi creek park which has great swimming and fishing pier. Karma winery is nearby which is one of our favorites. We will be back definitely! Tom is an incredible host, fun to visit with! He provided in person service and help anytime it was needed answering all questions and giving tips on the area. I recommend this property.

Staycation with a view!

This was a perfect end of summer getaway for our family! The quiet remote location was just what we were looking for! We enjoyed having our coffee in the morning while the sun came up on the lake while enjoying the gardens and little grouse family that visited us. We rented a pontoon boat for a day, spent an afternoon at the state park paddle boarding , strolled around down town and BBQ’d some delicious meals at the house. Tom and red dog Rory were gracious hosts and we definitely will plan to come back again!

Stunning View, Peace & Quiet

This house is located with the best view of the lake. You have to drive a little further but so worth it. The drive around the Lake is beautiful. Two of the bedrooms have King beds with lots of room. Once you’re there it is so peaceful. You’re away from the noisy end of the Lake. The garden is full of colorful flowers and we had a doe and her two fawns visiting us. The house has everything you need. It was a pleasure staying there.

Perfect private lake house!

Chose to stay here for a weekend away with a group of 8 other women. Let me just say this house is amazing! It was a short 20 min drive to the downtown shops. Every window in the house has a lake view and hanging out in the yard with all the beautiful flowers and prestine view of the lake is perfect! The house is so roomy and clean and PRIVATE! Do be sure to come in an AWD or 4x4 because the driveway is steep for sure but totally worth it!

The perfect getaway home!

This property was stunning! Beautiful gardens! Immaculate views! We were all impressed with the size of the house. With 6 large adults(and a LOT of luggage and extras) at no point did we feel cramped or packed in at all. Bedrooms were all quite spacious and comfortable. The living areas are very open and bright. And the privacy and abundance of wildlife made the trip so special! Did I mention the breathtaking views? Holy cow! And Tom was a perfect host. Very accommodating and friendly. He made us feel so welcome! All in all our family had an unforgettable time. We will definitely be coming back to this house on our next trip to Chelan. And the one after that.

About the host

Hosted by Thomas Paul Hickey

Host profile image
We rented homes and condos in Hawaii for 15 years until moving to Chelan in 2005. We built this home in 2019 on the parcel next to ours and are looking for repeat guests to come each year who appreciate a rental like this until we sell it for retirement. We already have several repeat guests.

Why they chose this property

When you see the view that made us buy this location on 8 acres you will agree this is a special place. We live on adjacent 11 acres in case you need assistance. All our first 4 seasons guests were pleasantly surprised by the home and setting. Please read our reviews. Be on the lake bothered by jet skis and neighbors for way more per night or be perched above the lake in peace when you get home after Chelan adventures saving money by grilling and chilling at our place. Our access road and driveways are gravel so AWD or 4H vehicles are recommended but not mandatory.

What makes this property unique

Private setting 20 minutes to town's activities, only 1 mile from the State Park's excellent beach and boat launch. A great garden and pergola deck area perched above the lake where you can kick back and watch the lake brimming with activity while you sip wine and chill.
