Hands down fantastic

Our family lives very close and we were able to travel back and forth with ease. The house is super charming, clean and had all the amenities we needed. I would definitely stay there again if the occasion arises.

Apple Chalet is a gift that keeps on giving. We were instantly impressed with the cozy feel of the chalet. The gas fire feature provided a warm glow, and we found all the comforts of home, even for our boxer, Keeva. It was clear the house was put together with furry friends in mind, the kinds of things non-dog owners might never think of. Keeva loved having the run-of-the-roost, and we were grateful for the fences to contain her. Attention to detail and cleanliness was incredible. There was everything you needed and more with instruction labels everywhere. Thank you for a wonderful experience. We will be back!

Wonderful little cabin

Apple's Chalet was a wonder place for us to stay for my wife's birthday. She wanted snow and she got it! We absolutely loved the charm, and really appreciated that everything was labeled. Lots of blankets for cold weather and all the floors heated up nicely. Plenty of room for the kids and adults to spread out. We asked for an extra day because of the snow and they even snow plowed the driveway so we could get out once it's stopped snowing. We want to come back in the spring or summer!

Cozy escape

This cabin was a nice escape from the heat of the valley summer. Our host, Erin was communicating with us prior to our check in and was quite friendly via text. Check in process was a breeze. Overall, it was a very nice stay. the home had everything we needed and more. Our 3 year old daughter loved the game room and the playground. We were hoping there would be a trail to walk on directly from the house but you need to drive to the start of any trail. The drive was not far at all but it was a hassle with 2 children under 3. It was right next to the main road so it can get noisy at night with the windows opened.

Pine Perfection!

We enjoyed a week at the Apple Chalet and enjoyed exploring the surrounding area! Located in Pollock Pines, the area offered a beautiful lake for recreation, and an easy drive to Tahoe or Sacramento for more adventures. The home was well stocked with anything you would need and lovely decor! We enjoyed the deck off the living area and the safe, fenced in yard for our pup. My kids spent most of their time either swinging on the swing set, or hanging out in the game room! There are steep stairs to get up to the queen beds, and downstairs to the game room; however, the fenced yard has gate accessibility from the outside walkway as well. On our cool morning walks through the neighborhood we saw deer almost every day! Don’t forget to grab a burger at the Burger Barn in town, or drive down the road for gelato at Shorty’s in Placerville!

Very clean sweet house

Cute cabin home. Very clean which I appreciate. Good communication from the host. Nice outdoor area great for dogs. Unfortunately no fire pit (not even a gas one) although I thought the photos showed one. wish they had a hot tube outside (: There’s a great tube inside for relaxing though. Honestly was not a fan of the reservoir, very busy and not the cleanest water. But that’s not related to the house just the general area. It is right on the corner of a pretty busy road. because it’s on a hill, when you sit outside you sometimes can’t hear what the other person is saying because the vehicles are so loud. Bring gear plugs for sleeping if you’re sensitive. Nice for a family for sure, not ideal for two couples because the upstairs doesn’t have a door and the living room doesn’t have a nice big couch . Over all had a wonderful stay and enjoyed dinners and breakfast on the patio.

So cute and so clean!

What a cute house! My family of three loved our time here and will definitely be back! The house is exactly as pictured, but even more charming in person. And SO clean! Definitely as clean as any five star hotel, which we are trying to get away from in favor of more space, quiet, and privacy. I even went under a bed to access an extension cord and it was immaculate underneath - not a dust bunny in sight. It’s also so organized with labels everywhere so you know exactly what’s what. We had hoped for snow during our trip but missed it by a few days and the owner recommended a place to find some nearby which saved us a trip to a traditional crowded snow park. We also found the area cute with enough to do for a long weekend with great food nearby. It’s also quiet despite being on the corner of a main road, and we’re fairly sensitive to noise. I’d love to find a more powerful heater in the downstairs game room as it was pretty chilly in winter, but my 12 year old son played down there fully content regardless (all the other spaces have great heaters). There are also two spiral staircases in the home to be aware of if that’s of concern, but the master bedroom is on the main floor with a wonderful clawfoot tub. All three beds were extremely comfortable as well, which is truly appreciated. 5 stars all around and we’re looking forward to more time here in the future!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. Everything was clean and as advertised. When I had an issue with one of the heating units (it was my issue, not the unit) I reached out and received a phone call in just a few minutes to help me fix the issue. We loved staying here and hope to return soon!

Pet and Family Friendly

We booked this place because it was pet friendly and we have kids. The property has a nice fenced yard and small play structure in the back for the kids to play on. Inside the house was very well stocked with everyday things and had multiple chargers for electronics. We really loved how this felt liked an actual home. Definitely look forward to returning
