Secluded Lakeside Cabin, Dock, Deck, Lake Views

A Secluded, Cozy Lakefront Sanctuary on Payette Lake, A Private Dock, Your Place to Unplug This is the cabin you’ve been looking for! Wake up to the glassy surface of a crystal-clear mountain lake just outside your bedroom door at this stunning property on the northwestern shore of Payette Lake. Peaceful, private, and thoughtfully furnished, this retreat is the perfect escape for a small family or a group of friends who want to spend their days on the water and their evenings unwinding around the table with good food, easy conversation, and late-night card games. The deck offers breathtaking views of Payette Lake and the distant mountains, which glow with the changing light. In the summer, the lake beckons. Dive in for a spontaneous swim, marvel at the ospreys, bald eagles, or mergansers from your kayak or paddleboard, or enthusiastically tackle your next trick behind your boat. In the winter, snow adventures (skis, boards, snowmobiles) are just a few minutes’ drive away. Snowball fights, maple syrup snow ice cream, and silent observation of the night sky need no travel time at all! When you’re ready to come inside, the well-appointed kitchen is fully equipped for whatever meals you have in mind, and the comfortable living area, warmed by a cozy fireplace, is the ideal spot to curl up with a good book. Streaming TV, WiFi, and a washer and dryer ensure all home comforts are accounted for, and longer stays are easy and stress-free.
