Couples Retreat, NEW Hot Tub 2022, ORV, Right From the Front Door

Escape to the cozy comforts of the Chardonnay Chalet, a beautifully wooded property located on a private road—perfect for a relaxing getaway. This charming 3-bedroom, 1-bath chalet accommodates couples, families, or groups, with flexible sleeping arrangements for up to 8 guests.
