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

Kirk R., Plano, TX USA

Liked: Cleanliness
Hopskip was clean, comfortable and exactly as expected
From the welcoming sunroom (perfect for an afternoon nap) to the well-equipped kitchen and dining area, to the extremely comfortable beds, this retro chalet was exactly as expected. This unit easily sleeps 8 and provides enough kitchen items for the same. There is one bedroom and a full bathroom downstairs, and two bedrooms, a loft (with two twin beds) and another full bathroom upstairs. The deck is nice and the grill is very convenient - easy to use. The kitchen is well equipped and there is a washer/dryer combo unit that cleans and dries well. Hot water seemed to be instantly available. The property is surrounded by trees. Neighborhood is quiet and provides for great exercise hiking the streets. Access to the neighborhood was easier than I expected - just needed to provide the address and show my ID (host had added me to a Visitor list). The host communicated with us prior to and throughout the stay. We highly recommend the Hopskip Retro Chalet for a short or an extended stay.
