My friend and I stayed at the chalet for my birthday. As soon as we drove up to the chalet we knew this was the perfect place. We visited Margaret Falls and hiked down to the beach. The chalet had everything we needed and the view was amazing. I will be going back. Shelly

Driftwood Chalet
Gorgeous little chalet with a beautiful view of the lake and mountains. Very very clean and well maintained. It’s very easy to get to from Hwy 1, just a steep driveway up! Kitchen has everything you need (even a coffee grinder which was perfect!). Comfy sofas and a TV with Netflix. The bathroom is spacious, super clean, with a full size tub/shower. Nice seating area with fire table on the deck. Only thing to note is there is no hot tub. Was not an issue for us though. Even though the property backs onto Hwy 1 the chalet has great sound proofing so it is very quiet and pleasant.

Perfect getaway
This Chalet was the most perfect spot for myself and a friend from Switzerland to visit. The inside is very up to date. Finished with really nice details and is packed with everything you could possibly need. It had rained the first few days of our trip, but the covered and gated deck with fireplace was still a nice place to sit and visit. My 1 year old son enjoyed it just as much. Kind hosts, and we will definitely be back to enjoy this little paradise.

We fell in love with Driftwood Chalet
We fell in love with the cabin, quiet and it is the perfect place to disconnect yourself from the city. Fabulous cabin. Impeccably clean; beautiful lay out with an open concept and loft area! Everything worked perfectly - nice stove and fridge and a microwave, toaster, kettle. Wonderful stocked kitchen, everything you need and more. Great washroom. The place has its own outdoor propane fire table and beautiful large deck looking down towards the lake.TV/ free internet , if you need to be connected . Fabulous host - will recommend Driftwood Chalet to family and friends. Enjoy your stay!

A wonderful getaway
Absolutely LOVED our stay! My wife and I stayed 3 nights and enjoyed every minute. The place is very clean with lovely decor. Beautiful fireplace inside with a great seating area in the loft to look out at the lake or the back part of the property. Our fave was sitting on the patio all bundled up next to the fire and watching the lake and listening to the birds. Such a relaxing weekend for us! Looking forward to coming back in the summer.
