We had an amazing family vacation at Himmlischer Chateau! The location is perfect for skiing, and even for those of us learning, it was so convenient to hit the slopes. The house itself is stunning—spacious, beautifully decorated, and so comfortable. The kitchen is fully stocked, which made cooking for the whole family easy and enjoyable. The beds are incredibly comfortable, and the linens feel luxurious, which made waking up each morning a treat. Every little detail, from the cozy living areas to the thoughtful touches around the house, made our stay feel special. It was such a relaxing and memorable getaway, and we can’t wait to come back!

Let me start by saying that my entire family enjoyed the house and we plan on inquiring again next year to rent this house for our annual winter escape. The house was everything that I excepted, the bedroom layout was perfect for my children and grandchildren. In spite of the -21 wind chill temp the house was very comfortable, and the fireplaces were a bonus. The large projection TV was a hit especially watching the Super Bowl on it. The dining and kitchen layout worked great for us to all eat together. This is by far the best house that I have ever returned, and I rent homes 2X per year. Thank you for letting us enjoy this house.

Well, there was really no counter space, a big hibachi grill in the middle of the kitchen that we were not allowed to use, as well as a wonderful wood burning fireplace that was also off limits. Sliding doors we were not allowed to open. There were a lot of restrictions for this house. More than I have encountered in any other rental.

Everyone on the trip was extremely happy with the properry, the professionalism and the ease of renting through them. Great all around. Will definitely be looking to stay at this rental again as well as other properties managed by them.

Christmas Ski Trip

Property is as advertised; Perfect for 8 adults and 4 kids Ages 6 mos to 5 yrs old. Property manager was very attentive with thoughtful posted FAQ's and house manual. Sufficiently equipped and close to mountain activities even when insufficient snow for ski-in ski-out. Kitchen is well equipped to cook every night with a full crew. We were able to locate a baby rental company to bring some cribs in which easily fit into the two bedrooms across from the two master bedrooms. Look forward to our next visit. Ski mountain is very young family friendly with plenty of beginner areas. This was a warm and rainy (mostly misty) Christmas and the ski mountain teams made the most out of constantly deteriorating conditions to enable keeping the mountain open the entire time - not an easy task without mother nature accommodating with colder temps to make snow..

Family Fun & Relaxation

The property is everything it says it is… and more! The house is beautiful and well laid out to give us both a place to gather together (9 of us) and spaces to spend time alone/as couples, if needed. The check in process and communication of the homeowners was easy and accurate. It is in a community setting that requires day passes for the amenities nearby and in my option are well worth it! You can walk to the main lodge area through the back yard (in the summer). The pool and the pond (more like a lake) with a beach were both close day trips that made everyone happy. We made almost all our meals in the amazing kitchen but there are restaurants nearby if that’s more your style. Highly recommend!

Beautiful House in a Beautiful Location

We booked the chateau for my parter's 50th birthday and spent the weekend with a group of friends. The property rep was very responsive and made the rental process easy. The property itself was beautiful and everyone was impressed by the space, the location, and the thoughtfulness of how everything was laid out. We will definitely be renting this space in the future for more group getaways!

3 Generation Christmas

The property was as expected. Nice bedrooms, although double bunks in the two single rooms would be better than the futon and air mattress offerings. Also the queen bed caves in the middle and really needs to be another King. The bathrooms in the masters are a bit odd in that there is no door between the bedroom door and the shower so if you hop out of the shower and someone walks in the bedroom….The theater sound also needed adjustment as the surround sounds needed to be deafening in order to hear the dialogue. I’d also like another dining table option as it sleeps 14 but only has 8 dining chairs. But overall it is a nice house with nice views and is on the slope. It made for a great Christmas!

Incredible house!

This place is great for a girls getaway. We had a blast sitting on the porch, enjoying the hot tub and enjoying wine with old friends! The house has multiple master bedrooms so we all had a nice space to unplug and relax. The house was clean and well stocked. We loved the mountain store that had groceries, a great deli and made to order sandwiches for pick up. The teppanyaki griddle is really unique and it was fun to sit around the griddle and cook while we talked. I’d like to bring my family back next time to enjoy with my kids!

Just WOW

My family and I visited Himmlischer Chateau this past week. We had a great time. We enjoyed the home and all the amenities the community offered. My three kids had a blast! My video game obsessed son loved the game room and putting his Nintendo Switch on the Big Screen. My daughter and I had fun baking in the kitchen and making memories, while enjoying the view of the mountain. We also taught our youngest son to ski on the mountain, which has a great hill for beginners. We found the home to be very clean, and loved all the white linens, and fresh white duvet covers on each bed. The local property managers live in the community and we’re so accommodating. We will be back next season for sure!

Ok stay. Should be better for this price point.

I will start out by saying it was good to get to the mountain to disconnect and relax for a reset. Now I will get to the rundown of the property. When we pulled up and saw the outside we all were like "Oh no...what did we do!!???". We got in and looked around and at quick glance we were like this is awesome. The good points are it was quiet, the deer were everywhere and wild turkeys walking through as well. Kitchen, dining room and living room area was large and spacious. The big screen TVs and pool table awesome. Now let's get to what was not good. Hair in the shower, sticky residue on the kitchen chairs and floor. Food residue on dishes and pots and pans. The cushions on the dining room chairs felt like you were sitting on a toilet seat We also experienced broken windows, blinds and furniture as well as missing window screens. The AC/Heating vents were filthy in the living room and dining room area. Cobwebs were prevalent in the windows as well. The beds were noisey everytime you rolled over and the walls and floors are soooo paper thin you fell like you are part of the conversation in the other room and on the other floor. The close proximity to the ski lift is cool but off season you are looking at maintenance equipment. Whatever you do, make sure you have everything you need from the store when get there because running to any sizeable store like Walmart is a 1 hour travel ordeal roundtrip not counting time spent shopping. Thank God for our Instacart delivery person on one day that we were not feeling the drive. Oh..and we had to do some cleaning before we checked out which is odd. Not sure who is in charge of maintenance but the owner should get his money back from whoever he hired. If it is the owner maintaining this place he needs help or some training. The booking process and tons of forms to sign is way over the type for this property. I signed less paperwork to stay in a way better property in Kauai. I can honestly say this is a one and done for me and my family.
