The Chaletlées (Housekeeping Cabins) were built in 1947; have knotty pine interiors and all but one have kitchenettes which include a 2-burner stove-top (no oven), dormitory-size refrigerator, basic eating and cooking utensils, a coffee maker, toaster, and a counter with stools. We do suggest that you bring along a cooler for extra storage of perishables. Our one-bedroom units consist of a front area with a queen bed and adjacent kitchen area. The two-bedroom units have the kitchen area adjacent to a 2 twin bed sleeping area, and a rear bedroom with a queen bed.
All units have electricity, hot and cold running water, and a bathroom with a shower. There are no telephones, TVs, radios, toaster ovens, microwaves or hair driers. Bedding and linens are provided, and a midweek cleaning is provided for 7 day stays. Most Chaletlées are set up as double units that share a common front deck. They are located on the mountainside above Echo Lake, and require a very short hike. The foot path is unlit and we suggest you bring flashlights.
The above map may prove helpful in choosing a specific Chaletlée – especially for our first-time guests. The lower Chaletlées (#7, and #8) have an unobstructed view of Lower Echo Lake through the pines (which have grown significantly since the units were first built), and are somewhat easier to access via the foot trail.
Rates: We require a THREE NIGHT MINIMUM STAY.
If you book for one week, the seventh night is free!

SUITE ELEVEN is our newly-renovated Chaletlee. We have combined two older units into a single suite that comes with King-size bed, Kitchen stove with oven, Stand-up refrigerator/freezer, and kitchenware. The unit is located higher on the mountainside, so be prepared for a bit of a hike.
Chaletlee #12 is our only accessible unit. It sustained significant damage from the heavy winters and will be undergoing major maintenance and repairs.
Pet Policy: For many years the Chalet has allowed quiet, housebroken, pets in our Chaletlees. Unfortunately, we have sustained significant damage along with noise and nuisance complaints, and are now re-considering our pet-friendly policy. For the present time pets will be allowed with a $200 security deposit (separate check please) to be returned if no damage is noted on the post-checkout inspection. No more than two pets are allowed, and a cleaning fee of $75 per pet will be charged at the time of booking confirmation. Pets are never to be left unattended in the Chaletlees.
