My wife and her girlfriends stayed here for her 40th. The location and amenities were perfect. Checking in was easy and communication with the property was fast.

Great location for large group
We stayed at the cottage with the family to celebrate the 60th wedding anniversary of our parents. The venue was perfect to have a large family gathering. The chalet itself is very nice, comfortable. Kitchen is a bit small for meal prep for large group but had everything we needed. Bedrooms are nice and with lots of space. Comfortable beds. Nice area to play pool and relax. Very nice covered porch. Only concerns are the stairs in the cottage. Not appropriate for people with disabilities or older people. The owners are very nice people, but important to mention that they live next door. I recommend this cottage.

Awesome winter getaway
We enjoyed our stay in this comfortable home. The location is perfect- less than a mile from Chelsea village and Gatineau park. We were able to get in a lot of Nordic skiing. Close to Ottawa and we went drove 20 min into town for museums and dinner. The hosts were great- helpful and friendly. We would stay again!

Great space
It was a great space for myself and 5 athletes. For us it was very convenient to Camp Fortune and a reasonable drive to Mont Ste-Marie. House was exactly as described and the owners were great. We will definitely stay here again next time we have races in the area.

Roomy and convenient
Shirt drive to both Old Chelsea and Gatineau park. Lots of bedrooms which are comfy and spacious. Living room/dining room could be bigger to accommodate a fuller house. Not enough chairs/couches for ten people. We were only three so did not impact us. Kitchen is small but well-stocked. Trevor and Alisha were very responsive and friendly. Provided great advice on local trails, which was especially appreciated given how busy the town and park were that weekend. Signs in house ask that windows not be opened were a bit ‘off-putting’. This is apparently to avoid loud groups annoying neighbours. Totally get it but We wanted to open them for fresh air and Trevor quickly said yes. Suggest the signs get removed from every window and just be really clear at check in to tell guests to shut windows if they are going to be noisy.

Girls getaway
Good place for a girls weekend! The cottage was very close to the spa, which was perfect. The rooms were spacious and the beds were comfortable. We cooked a lot and the kitchen was a bit small for lots of meal prep but it was stocked well. There’s no dishwasher, which I would suggest putting in if possible! Trevor was very nice and easy to get in touch with. We would stay here again.

Family Trip
This rental was great, we have a large family and so it is always hard to find places that comfortably sleep us all and this place was great for us with 5 actual bedrooms. The property was clean and came as advertised. The games room was great and got lots of use. We had one small issue with the water and the owners were quick to respond and make sure everything was ok. Would highly recommend and stay here again.

Luxury in the woods
The rental was exceptionally clean and modern with excellent amenities, comfortable beds and a relaxing location close to everything. Check in was really easy. The kitchen was well stocked with modern appliances and lots of dishes. The games room was a big hit with everyone, too. The bedrooms were spacious and comfortable with lovely light. Excellent artwork throughout and high end soaps and shampoos. Wonderful attention to detail. The best part of this rental, however, is the owners. One night there was a big storm and the power went out. When we got up in the morning, there was a text waiting with an ETA for power restoration, a bucket of water for the toilets, and a carafe of premium coffee (with cream, milk, sugar and cups) waiting for us. As the week progressed we also got personal recommendations for our family on local attractions and spaces only known to the locals. These recommendations were the highlights of our adventures. The only - very small - downsides are that the rental is an extension of the owner's home so the outdoor spaces are shared and the layout of the rental is unexpected (the kitchen is not next to the dining room, for example). But these are small in comparison to the quality and comfort of the property. Overall, we would recommend this property and would absolutely stay here again!

Wonderful stay in Chelsea
The property has all the conveniences you need and the location near Old Chelsea is amazing. Trevor and Alisha are incredibly warm and welcoming and extremely responsive. Our only regret is that our stay was too short to take advantage of all the property has to offer.

Chelsea in the woods
We rented this house for 2 nights to have a ski weekend away with my family. Beautiful location close to ski and spa. House tucked amongst the woods. Large rooms throughout and great gathering area downstairs with games room including pool table and fireplace. Owners made it easy to check in and out and easy to contact if you had any questions. If your looking to have a mini retreat/holiday this is the place to go.
