Beautiful place for vacation!
We had a lovely week in this beautiful lakeside cottage. Gorgeously decorated, clean and well maintained. Well-stocked kitchen and a grill that is nicer than ours at home. Temperature was comfortable indoors and the firepit and waterfront were great for nights by the fire. My husband was even able to bring and park his boat there! We are excited to come back again!

Wonderful time
Our family had a great time at Camp Chiffy! It was roomy enough for everyone with plenty of spaces for family members to congregate for card games, etc. The kitchen was well stocked and we made good use of it. We used the deck, firepit, and the dock a lot. The kayaks and other water toys were much appreciated. We went swimming, tubing, kayaking and hiking. We cooked on the grill, made s'mores, and had epic corn hole tournaments. Thanks for a wonderful time!

Fantastic house in a great location
This is a great house, very clean with good size rooms. The docks & kayaks provided hours of entertainment on the water. I loved that the house is set back from the road. The separate living areas are great with 3 families to have the kids downstairs while the adults can talk upstairs. We ate outside every evening on the lovely deck. Only wish there were blankets on the beds.

Family Vacation
Camp Chiffy never disappoints! It is so perfect for our growing family. Our kids and grandkids had an unforgettable week of building memories together. The property is gorgeous, the new docks were perfect for our boat and our avid fisherman. Everyday ended with a fire in the beautiful fire pit! We all love camp Chiffy and hope to stay again soon!

Annual Family Camping Trip
This was by far our most favorite family camping trips thus far! The property was spacious, enough for our 4 families. The master bedroom was beautiful, we were able to setup a play pen for our 1 year old. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything you may need. The views outside from the living room were breathtaking and beautiful. The kids enjoyed fishing off the dock every morning. Kayaks were great and fun. We will definitely be coming back. It was a trip were we created memories that will last a lifetime.

Great As Always
We had a wonderful time. The cooler weather fostered more hiking and biking. We still went out tubing and cruising in the rented pontoon boat. The house was comfortable and well-equipped. Mr. Chiffey kept us abreast of the information we needed as we stayed there. Everything was clean and comfortable.

Great home on the lake!
Home was very clean and more than enough room for the 2 families that stayed! We rented a boat for 4 days and used the kayaks as well. It's located right in between Old Forge and Inlet. We spent time in both. Would definitely recommend this rental for any group.

A wonderful stay.
This home has all the luxuries you could ask for. Three bathrooms and plenty of room downstairs for the kids to stay. It is close enough to ride your bikes for ice cream and if you rent a boat, close to the nearest lake. We swam off the dock, hiked Blue Mountain, and had a great dinner at Deckers. The firepit is upgraded. And there are plenty of chairs with cup and phone holders. The kitchen is well stocked and the dishwasher and refrigerator held up well under the weight of so many people. It was cleaned with care for our arrival and we had no difficulty contacting the owners who responded as soon as possible. Can't wait to go again.

Great House for Family Getaway!
This was our 2nd year staying at Camp Chiffy and we have already booked our week for next summer! The owner is wonderful to work with and readily available if you have any questions. This is a huge plus if you have ever rented a place where there is limited or poor communication. Never a problem here! The house is well equipped with everything you need, along with extras like 4 kayaks... perfect for a short paddle into Old Forge. We cooked a fair amount, so its nice to have a fully stocked kitchen with all pots pans and gadgets! The house being situated on the channel allows you to watch the boats passing through as you sit on the dock. The lawn is beautiful with a gradual slope to the water for older family members. We really enjoyed the firepit in the evenings to sit and visit as well. We look forward to this week all year long at the Chiffy Camp! Thank you for sharing your home.

Relaxing summer family getaway
This house was perfect for what our family needed it for. 5 real bedrooms that could sleep 5 couples plus bunk beds for kids and plenty of space for pack n plays for the little ones. The house was clean and the owner was very responsive. The yard was plenty big for the little ones to run around and play and we used the fire pit every night. Location on the river is basically ideal, just a couple hundred feet from First Lake we were able to kayak around and bring the boat out for rides with ease, but it was nice and quiet being off the lake. The house is less than 5 minutes from town, making shopping trips / bars restaurants / dump trips super easy. Would easily consider booking next year's trip at this same property.
