Our experience was wonderful booking through Houfy. I have used them several times and always had a good service. Our cabin was excellent. We enjoyed our stay very much.

A wonderful stay, every time

I strongly suggest anyone interested in staying at Lake Chelan book their room with the very kind attentive owners of the Cabana's. Their rooms are clean, modern and well appointed for a very comfortable stay at a great location within walking distance to great shopping, dining and recreation. We return year after year to enjoy the comfort they provide.

Owners that care!

Fe's Place was unmatched. Very well done. The details put into a perfect stay for their guest left nothing untouched. We had a very comfortable, nice, relaxing stay. The communication was very well received. We will definitely be back. What a great asset to Mamou!
