Perfect Getaway for Two

We stayed at this beautiful property and had our very very small elopement here. The property is beyond gorgeous and we loved the wild life we saw. The house is beautiful as well and was the perfect place for us to celebrate.

Mountain top home

Great place, secluded and quiet. Great place to visit with family. Great views, fun hiking trails and lots of deer. If you want to get away from the busyness of town, this is the place. Easy drive to the lake.

Amazing and peaceful family retreat!

Our family travels a lot, this may have been our favorite place yet! Peaceful, beautiful, and very welcoming! We loved the multiple and well marked hikes on the property, morning coffee, sunset dinners, and evening stars in the hot tub! Everything in the house was clearly organized and labeled. The location is very private, yet we were able to easily get to Silverwood Theme park and Lake Coeur d’Alene for swimming days! I would definitely recommend this place to friends and family!

Beautiful and quiet

This was such a beautiful property. Very private and quiet. Best stocked VRBO I have ever been in, with everything well labeled. The owners were so nice and had amazing communication. We stayed here for our anniversary and it was very rejuvenating and private. So close to Wolf Lodge for dinner one night as well. We enjoyed all the creatures and animals we saw, except all the Ticks. They were bad right now. Might suggest to have bug spray if you stay. The only thing I would have a complaint on is there was dog hair in a few places that kept getting on our clothes. Other than that this place is a must stay and we will stay again.

Unique Mountain Home Retreat

Fantastic clean mountain home with 40 acres to ourselves. Saw elk, deers, turkey right from the cabin deck. Trails on property are private. Plenty of great hiking trails within 15 mins to an hour drive from the cabin. Town is 15 minutes away and a nice drive. Hot tub was nice after long hikes.

Absolutely great. Really quiet and peaceful. Great toy house and sandbox for the littles. Will not hesitate to return. The house has enough space and was clean. The kitchen isn’t stocked well with things that anyone would need. Loved it!!!

A Little Slice of Paradise

If you are looking for a quite secluded stay that is a ~20 min drive to lake CDA, downtown, and right up the mountain from one of the best steakhouses in the country, THIS PLACE IS IT. The property itself is absolutely stunning with breathtaking views and private hiking trails on the 40 acre plot. The amount of wildlife we saw in just 3 days was unbelievable. This house is fully stocked with everything you can think of as this is the owner’s primary home when they are not graciously renting. I will be coming back with my nieces and nephews anytime we can get away.

Great family vacation

The rental is exactly as advertised. Secluded, peaceful and had everything you would need. Everything labeled and posted instructions for our convenience. (Not supplied by many rentals) The owners put a lot of thought and care to our comfort. Communication was excellent. Spacious and with comfy beds too. Our dog enjoyed playing his version of 'whack a mole' with the ground squirrels! No animals were injured but that didn't stop him from the stalk. We had a wonderful time!

Lovely place, gets very hot mid afternoon making food preparation space very hot and stuffy.

Thankful we brought umbrellas for the deck tables as we used them as pseudo window coverings for the 3 of 2 sliding glass doors hoping to bring the temperature down enough to cook food. BBQ was left on from previous renters making it unavailable to us, forcing us to use the stove, increasing the heat. Dog hair left on unvaccuumed furniture in the basement.

Dog friendly paradise

What a treat it was to stay here! The house is lovely, well appointed, clean and we appreciate that is is pet friendly with no carpet for those with allergies (and for cleanliness). There were only two of us and our two small dogs, but the master bedroom was so comfortable with it's comfy memory foam mattress and large connected bathroom. Beyond that, the house itself is just breathtaking and focuses on the beauty of nature. We appreciated that we did not hear anything but the forest and the critters throughout the property. Our dogs loved sunbathing in front of the expansive sliding glass doors and enjoyed watching the critters grazing on the lawn. Finally, the owners are so very kind and truly care about giving their renters a wonderful experience which makes the stay even better knowing you are renting from wonderful people. Overall, this is the best property that we have ever rented and would highly suggest it to anyone looking for a place of quiet, peace and rejuvenation.

40 acres to ourselves with the cabin was awesome. They have their own trails on the property. Cabin is centrally located to hikes in the area from easy to tough. It’s close enough to town and the lake as well which we drove daily. Having a hot tub after the long hikes was a nice bonus. We saw elk deer turkey from the kitchen. We love to cook and they have a really nice prep area and kitchen.

Great Place!!

We stayed here for a few days and it is a beautiful house with so many amenities and properly located. I’m less than 15 minutes you are right at the CdA lake; in 25 you’re in town if you need any additional groceries. The host Mark was awesome helping us during a blackout caused by a storm by bringing us a generator very quickly. Me and my family will certainly be back

Wonderful Vacation~

My family stayed here - it was our first time to Idaho... and the owners were very happy to provide recommendations of things to do and places to check out. The views were magnificent, trails well maintained and you could tell the owners take pride in maintaining the property and ensuring it is comfortable for their guests. We did have to contact the care takers during our stay and they were extremely responsive and attentive. We did a lot of exploring of the area and were always glad to return back to "home-base" at the end of the day to relax, unwind, and spend some quality time together. I would highly recommend :)

This is a nice place to explore outside and have some peace and quiet. The owners have really taken the time to explain and label where everything is. This is one of the best outfitted Vrbo kitchens I have seen.

Memorial Day Mountain Light

This property is amazing! The home is set in the middle of a beautiful forest. The view from the living room is magical. We never had to turn on the TV during our whole stay. The place has several fun spaces to try out. We loved the greenhouse and the hot tub. Our stay was perfect even though it did rain every day. We spent time with family and 2 dogs and had a blast. We visited all the nature hike trails and were impressed with how well maintained they are. The host was very attentive and made sure that we had everything we needed. If you are looking for a peaceful mountain getaway, this is it!

Excellent Property for Getting Away

We enjoyed staying in this remote home that also offered close proximity to Coeur d'Alene. It was clean and very well stocked for our two week stay and was very comfortable for four guests. We also brought our two dogs that enjoyed the property as much as we did. I would recommend this house for those that enjoy the serenity of nature and being away from the hustle of the city.
