Overview
Enjoy the seclusion of lakefront living when you book this precious multi-level home close to Sandpoint and Schweitzer Mountain! You are just a couple of steps away from the renowned Lake Pend Oreille, which is known for all the entertaining activities you can enjoy there from sailing, motorboating, and kayaking, to paddleboarding, fishing (trout, bass, and kokanee salmon), swimming, and picnicking. The home enjoys a private dock and direct access to the lake, providing ample opportunity to appreciate and immerse yourself in the tranquil waters at your leisure
Upon entering this lakefront gem, you are greeted by a bright and airy open floor plan seamlessly combining all living spaces into one. Spend memorable evenings unwinding in the living room while streaming an entertaining show or movie on the smart TV with a sound bar or playing any of the provided board games. When mealtime comes, put on the chef's apron, head over to the open kitchen, and surprise your loved ones with exquisite homemade masterpieces. The kitchen has been appointed with modern stainless steel appliances that will make cooking a breeze. Attached to the kitchen is a secluded den that can be used as a family room or a dedicated workspace. This level also includes an extensive deck with a BBQ grill that leads to a beautiful yard and your very own hot tub. Sleeping arrangements include one bedroom with an en suite bathroom on the lower level and two additional bedrooms on the loft upstairs.
This charming escapade enjoys a wonderful location only four miles away from Sandpoint.

Right on the lake, its quiet, clean and a large house. The only downside is the heat is about non-existent and they say you cant use the fireplace. Just a warning if you want to book for fall/winter months
Beautiful house with private lake access. Three of the bedrooms have a/c units, allowing for good temp control. Well stocked home. Would definitely book the home again!!
The house is located on the lake but it fronts on a road with several abandoned cars and other homes with furniture piled on the front porch. There are things that should be repaired or upgraded.
This home was wonderful for our family vacation! A breakdown: Inside: -all rooms impeccably clean -the upstairs rooms were hot and shook at night randomly but they all have great windows that are easy to open. -the railing on the stairs is very secure, making the stairs easy to navigate for my 80 year old mother in law. -the ladder rooms were a huge hit with the kids, very “treehouse” feeling. -the kitchen is well stocked with equipment and very clean. -bathrooms equally stocked and clean. Outside: -gorgeous views! Even if you aren’t facing the water, you’re surrounded by trees. -the dock and beach are a blast and create a natural swimming area. -it was a hike for my mother in law to get down to the water but she made it once and that was great for her. Location: -perfect! You do hear a train horn every now and then but that’s normal for the area. You’re a 5 minute drive from grocery stores and a 10 minute drive to downtown Sandpoint. We would stay here again in a heartbeat, absolutely recommend!
