Chalet on 250 acres, Private, 1 Mi from Chautauqua Institution / Lake

This chalet was built in 2011. It is owned and managed by an area resident and custom homebuilder for more than 20 years.

Downstairs features a living room with gas/wood fireplace, a 55in HD internet TV and surround sound system with DVR. The dining room has a large table that can accommodate 8-12 people and the kitchen is modern and fully stocked. Granite countertops and stainless appliances (microwave, refrigerator/freezer with ice maker, oven/stove, dishwasher and disposal). There are also two bedrooms (1 queen/2 singles), a full bathroom, a full size washer and dryer. Hardwood floors throughout.

It is an absolutely gorgeous view of the countryside when you look out the two-story wall of windows from the living room/dining room.

The second story of the chalet features two additional bedrooms (1 Queen/2 Singles) and another full size bathroom – this one with a jetted tub.

The front deck of the home is a two level, huge deck with a built-in gas grill. Plenty of space for outdoor eating and to relax and enjoy the beautiful views.

Communications – we’ve got you covered, with satellite TV and DVRs in the living room and two of the bedrooms. Broadband wireless internet is also provided.

This is a great house for families. A huge front lawn provides plenty of space for the kids/games.

The driveway to the house is a half mile long from the road. There is plenty of room for off road parking – for RVs, trailers, and snowmobiles.

The world famous Chautauqua Institution is only a mile away. Boat launch at Prendergast is also approximately 1.5 miles away.

We are centrally located between Peek n Peak and Holiday Valley. Both are great ski resorts. The home is also very close to Chautauqua Lake Snowmobile trails.

Secluded Chalet in the Woods
This property was a great spot for us to meet with family to reconnect and enjoy each other's company in beautiful surroundings. We also appreciated the closeness to the lake, restaurants, and other activities. Lake Chautauqua is a beautiful area to visit.

While at Chautauqua Institute
This is an unusual property in a beautiful setting-the home is spacious and well appointed. The grounds are gorgeous and home to many deer and groundhogs who entertained us every day. Our host responded to us within 20 minutes of our request. We were two couples with plenty of space and privacy and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Relaxing stay at The Chalet
Had a few hiccups at the beginning of my stay, but I reached out to Chris and he promptly got the issues resolved. Everyone in Chautauqua is very friendly and helpful. The property is beautiful. The weather was also beautiful. Enjoyed the peaceful nature of the property and all the critters: deer, ground hogs, rabbits, birds and bats (at dusk). Enjoyed the fire pit too! Be prepared to use cell phone as a hotspot for internet access. Verizon worked well.

Dreamy
Lovely, exceedingly comfortable home with extraordinary gardens and exquisite views fit for royalty. The wifi doesn’t work however and no help from mgmt in this regard. Though perhaps it was the non-connectivity that allowed for the best sleeps ever, the most harmonious family chats by the fireplace, and a spring to our step coupled with a precious calm in our spirit ~

Such a beautiful property! The house is open and spacious. They have everything you could possibly need, which is super awesome. My fave thing was waking up early and sipping coffee on the porch or out in the lawn chairs. So much nature, beautiful sounds, and little critters to watch 💚

Excellent property!
We had an excellent stay! The check in process was easy, the house was clean, plenty of towels and the pillows were great too! It might seem like that isn’t something to mention but we’ve stayed at many places where the pillows were flat and uncomfortable so definitely worth mentioning here! We did have some critters get into the garbage so had to block the door for the garbage bin with some firewood which did the trick. We’re already looking forward to coming back next year!

Been going to Chautauqua for years and never want to leave. The Chalet is tucked away and not far from the boat launch for fishing. Lots of Chipmunks to keep you entertained. Recommend

Nice place out in the wilderness
Place is very nice, especially if the weather is good to enjoy the yard and deck. Internet didn't work, but was due to a big storm that rolled through. Would definitely go back and stay again.

Winter weekend getaway
We’ve been visiting Chautauqua for years and this was by far our best trip yet. The chalet was beautiful and very well stocked with all the essentials and then some!! Communication with the owners was great. We were able to hike and explore the property, play in the snow, enjoy some of the local wineries, then wind down to relax by the cozy fireplace. Our family had an amazing time and is already looking forward to staying here again. Thanks for opening your home to help us create some wonderful memories.

Secluded in the woods with beautiful scenery and coffee with the morning critters was a delight! Thr f friends we came with had trouble climbing the rock and stone steps at the base of stairway and a handrail for them would have been safer. Lovely area and home. Overall very nice accomdations.
