We welcome you to the Hopskip Home Retro Chalet. This home has been in our family for nearly 20 years. We just refreshed the house with all new décor and a few vintage treasures to open our doors to you. We hope you enjoy this nostalgic yet thoroughly modern stay.
----------WHAT OUR GUEST HAVE TO SAY----------
"This place is well worth it and the hosts were amazing start to finish. It is a quiet and beautiful place. You will enjoy it when you go." -John
“Graham & Krista's house was exactly what we were expecting and looking for. Private while still having plenty of activities close by. Very clean and very cozy house! Would definitely recommend!” -Sarah
"Visited with my family to celebrate my Dad's birthday, and it was a perfect spot for a cozy Winter reunion. The kitchen was beautifully equipped, we really enjoyed cooking meals together. We played board games at the dinner table, and spent time on the back porch reading by the fire. I love how it's decorated; a perfect retro vibe. The hosts were friendly and helpful; great, clear instructions for check-in and check-out. We are looking forward to staying here again!" -Ebbie
