Booked the trip.

Our stay was really nice. The home was clean, comfortable, and also had a few necessities that we may have forgot. Our host Angelo was welcoming, made things easy. He communicated when we arrived, and when we left making sure we enjoyed our stay at his home. Only 5minutes from South Higgins state park, beautiful beach access. I would highly suggest this property, our family will definitely be back

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!

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!
