A Great Escape

What a great little escape. My husband and I snuck away from the kids and this was just what we needed. A quiet relaxing little place. I appreciate them allowing for a very impromptu early check in. House is very tastefully decorated. Everything was in great shape and clean. Thank you for letting us enjoy your place!

Perfect for 2! Great escape for a romantic or connecting time away from the hustle and bustle. If you can, bring your water toys (SUPs, floaties, etc) as there is water everywhere! Thimbleberries were also on almost all of the trails, and wife ate herself sick ;)Property had everything we needed and a little more. Hosts were great at responding and even provided recommendations for the area.Thanks again!

Perfect little getaway spot.

Property was super clean and had everything that we needed to be able to enjoy our stay. Perfect location to get to town or Schweitzer, but also tucked in the trees so you felt like you were away from it all.

Right when I walked in I could tell the thought and care that had been put into this property. It was spotless and had everything we needed! It was the perfect spot to celebrate our anniversary. The views were incredible and the hot tub was the extra icing on the cake.

Wonderful place to unwind

We just needed a place to get away and unwind, and this was perfect! The views were amazing, the hot tub on the deck was awesome, and it was stocked with everything we needed to be comfortable and relax. We would definitely recommend it for anyone who wants to explore Sandpoint/Schweitzer, but also just as a place to get away the hustle and bustle of life.

Cozy but modern with insane views

My partner and our dog stayed in this cozy little lookout. The property was surprisingly big and remote, driving up to the unit was such a surreal experience, the living space was very cozy, the kitchen had very modern appliances, the bathroom was very nice and the shower was pretty insane, the deck that surrounded the exterior overlooked the incredibly beautiful views of the mountains off in the distance which provided us an amazing sunrise, and the hot tub was very warm. We'll defiantly make our way back to this property in the future.

Awesome honeymoon stay at Lookout Tower

My husband and I loved this location for our honeymoon. We highly recommend! Only downside was no A/C during the summer months but once we got a cross breeze going, it was not a problem. We would happily come back in the future ☺️

Perfect getaway

We had such a great stay in at the lookout tower. You can tell the owners/management really care about making your stay perfect. I was a little nervous when I booked the lookout tower because my husband and I are both tall (5’9 and 6’6). The unit is small but very space effective so it doesn’t feel cramped. This really is a great property and was perfect for our quick getaway to sandpoint!

Weekend Get Away

My husband and I stayed at Lookout Tower for the weekend. We loved the area. The road up had some tight turns but nothing we couldn't manage. We noticed the train noises while watching TV but they didn't wake us up at night. It was a very pleasant stay.

Unique & Comfortable for our ski adventure

My wife and I stayed here for a ski trip to Schweitzer. The lookout tower was a unique experience that we truly enjoyed. The tower is just big enough to have everything the 2 of us needed, and is very cozy.Close enough to Sandpoint for groceries / dinner. Only 20 minutes from Schweitzer, and even We had a full size AWD car rental, and I would not want to have anything less. The driveway to the tower is steep, but well maintained. The roads in the neighborhood and to Schweitzer are also well maintained, but winter mountain conditions exist.

Beautiful setting!

This Firetower is everything that it’s made out to be on the website, and then some! Absolutely AMAZING views of Lake Pend Oreille and the surrounding mountains. The only downside is loud train traffic at the base of the hill, but otherwise very peaceful; a great rental to be sure! : )
