The Story of Guest Chalet             email us

Once upon a time... we bought a chalet after a family tragedy - the goal was to support our family by renting and managing it. We also wanted to offer Christian ministries a comfortable and affordable retreat centre.  Over the years the chalet has been used for seasonal housing, short-term stays with private groups, retreats, events and family reunions.

As time went by the area has exploded into an all-season resort and activity destination and with it came a major house renovation to maximize its high-end rental potential. For a couple of years our rental business boomed... until we learned that we can accept only one private rental each month. Ugh! The GOOD NEWS is that the chalet is available for us to use more often. The BAD NEWS is that only one rental per month doesn't cover the ongoing expenses.
  ... "when you're itching to get away, just check the dates and let us know you're coming."
So we put on our creative thinking caps to find a way of sustaining the chalet. The idea of hosting Guest Chalet emerged with a sense of peace and excitement that it is a win-win solution all-around. We now offer an OPEN INVITATION to family and select friends to join us at Guest Chalet on available weekends... think of it as an exclusive B&B. When you're itching for a weekend away, just check the dates and let us know you're coming.
We've scoured rates on the internet at hotels, bed & breakfasts... even hostels... to make sure your weekend at Guest Chalet offers the best rates and value available, BAR NONE, whether you're booking a bed, a room, or a family suite.

Watch for 'theme' weekends, such as girls or guys getaways, golfing, wine tasting, hiking, skiing, age-specific, cooking or art lessons, motorcycle trip or spa.  We'd love to hear YOUR suggestions.  Any additional costs to cover meals, materials or activity fees will be posted.

We hope that Guest Chalet will be a great long-term solution.  We look forward to good times and deeper friendships for many years to come.

The private rental of the chalet is run separately.  Ask about the exclusive use of the chalet at our regular low rates.

Get out of town... come & play for the weekend!
