Cute house with plenty of room. Place was very clean and in a very quiet neighborhood. Quick drive to Higgins State Park beach - just 3 minutes down the road and to several ice cream shops for the kiddos. Nice place to stay and would recommend.

The Blue Chalet Saved Our Vacay!

The Blue Chalet was a beautiful, peaceful retreat for our vacation that didn’t start off very well at another resort. The owner was very helpful & kind. The chalet was close to the lake, restaurants, ice cream & trails. We had a fabulous time and will definitely be back soon!

A perfect place to stay to enjoy the trails.

Booked this property to come up and do some fall trail riding and we had a wonderful weekend. The home was clean and comfortable and beats staying in a motel. The driveway was plenty big for truck and trailers and the manager Angelo was very accommodating to our needs.

The Blue Chalet

We really enjoyed our stay at the Blue Chalet! Our friends were getting married at the Barn at Higgins Lake, which was a 2-min drive from the house or a 10-min walk. The property was clean, check-in process was so easy, and the decor was super cute! Plus, we really enjoyed the frosted mugs in the freezer, what a nice touch!

Absolutely amazing experience from start to finish

Angelo was extremely kind, helpful, easy to reach and we couldn’t have asked for a more enjoyable experience in dealing with a landlord. The kids absolutely loved the house it was immaculate and had more to offer expected plenty to cook with, spices, etc!! Home was cosy and extremely clean comfortable and very homey feeling! We will definitely be back!!
