The Charlotte Chalet is an East Idaho twist on a modern mountain chalet. Nestled in the shadow of the high mountains of the Caribou National Forest, it accommodates 2-10 guests comfortably while placing you within a stone's throw of the best outdoors East Idaho offers. Within 5 minutes, you can hit the trails, paddle the river, golf, or ski on thousands of acres of Idaho wilderness. The Chalet is only a 10-minute drive into town. Level II EV Charging is available for registered guests.

The space
The Charlotte Chalet was built in 1964 and is a 2200 sq. ft. 2 story modern mountain home. There is an additional 1000 sq. ft. of mature tree-shaded deck and patio, as well as 2.75 acres to enjoy. It features 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms and has 7 beds with 1 King, 1 Queen, and 4 Twin bunk beds. An additional pullout Queen sleeper sofa in the downstairs living room can stretch accommodations to 10 people. An infant Pack N' Play is also in the King closet downstairs.

The indoor dining area is equipped to seat 8 guests, while the outdoor dining table can be expanded to seat 8-10 (Seasonal availability. Deck outdoor furniture is stored once the snow starts.) There is also an infant high chair in the laundry room.

The Chalet is designed to bring outdoor spaces inside. The upstairs living room flows into the outdoor sectional seating, and the chef's kitchen flows onto the deck, where you'll find an oversized 5-burner professional gas griddle to cook for your crew.

Watch a family movie or sporting event upstairs on the 75" 4k tv in our oversized feather-stuffed sectional, or challenge your crew to a game of regulation-sized foosball, cornhole, or a wide selection of board games. Relax in the hammocks under the mature elm trees or hike up the back of the nearly 3-acre property for a picturesque view of the Caribou National Forest, Scout, and Slate Mountains. Enjoy complimentary coffee or hot chocolate on the covered deck overlooking the Portneuf Gap and Indian Mountain.

The Chalet is a popular destination for Portneuf Amphitheater concert goers, ISU sporting and graduation events, Lava Hot Springs visitors, Pebble Creek skiers, Scout Mountain marathoners, Juniper Hills golf and tennis tournaments, Camp Taylor attendees, Teton and Yellowstone tourists and more.

We're located 10 minutes from downtown Pocatello and I-15, 15 minutes from Idaho State University, and 5 minutes from the Mink Creek Recreation Area, Nordic Center, and Scout Mountain in the Caribou National Forest. The Pebble Creek Ski Area is a short 25-minute drive away and is visible through the Portneuf Gap. The world-famous natural volcanic hot springs of Lava Hot Springs are a short 30-40 minute drive Southeast.

Other things to note
