The house was lovely. It was very clean and well stocked. We cooked for eight each morning and evening and had everything that we needed to do so.It has a large fenced-in yard which was great for the grandkids and the dogs. The decking, hand rail, and outdoor furniture were not as well maintained as the house.

Our stay

The chalet was perfect for a ski vacation. Very short distance to the free shuttle that took us up the mountain. The host was quick to reply when we had a problem with the coffee maker and she immediately brought a new one only after we figured out our error with the coffee maker. Would highly recommend this property for anybody that wanted to have a great time.

Family snowboarding trip

My husband, brother, sister in law and I stayed here for our trip to Schweitzer Mtn. The location was great, close to the mountain and close to town. Cabin had everything we needed. Comfortable, cozy and warm. No issues at all. Lori was available if needed, but everything was perfect so we didn’t have to bother her. Cabin was clean.

Schweitzer Ski Trip

Charming mountain cabin atmosphere. Plenty of room for our 5 adults. Full kitchen with enough spices without having to buy more. Plenty of pots and utensils for cooking there. Beds comfortable. Despite sub-zero temperatures the home stayed comfortable. Has parking in driveway. Location ideal: short drive to Sandpoint for restaurants and markets. Mountain ski bus lot is a couple of blocks away and location next to Schweitzer Mountain road made for an easy drive up to ski resort. Only drawbacks were the shortage of toilet paper as we were running out on our last day, and the upstairs bathroom developed a sewer smell over the last 2 days of our stay. Had to leave a wet cloth over the shower drain to control this. if not for these 2 issues, would have been a 5 Star stay.

Great stay! We had a wonderful time in such Adorable cabin. Lori does such a good job of supplying her cabin with extra amenities. The upstairs living area was a perfect place for opening gifts for Christmas. The cabin is in a beautiful neighborhood. we saw wild turkeys on the first day. Will definitely come back!

Nice residence and neighborhood

Great area and close to Sandpoint and activities in the area. A bit over priced especially when you consider a later check in and earlier check out than other places we have stayed. The owner did allow us to check-in earlier so we could drop our luggage before attending an event.

Great ski option next to shuttle lot and the road up to Schweitzer

Very comfortable house with a nice master BR/BA upstairs and a couple good sized bedrooms and full bath downstairs. Loft area with couches and a TV and a sitting area downstairs next to the warm gas fireplace. Was great to have the option of the ski shuttle - 2 minutes drive (we walked - 10 minutes, but road is pretty busy in the morning) - or you can drive up to the base which takes about 15 minutes (very weather/traffic dependent). House was very well stocked with pretty much anything you should need from kitchen to bathrooms and bedrooms. Lots of nice touches throughout. Host was responsive - and we enjoyed our stay. But not the best option for people who live online or want to spend lots of time watching TV. As was made clear up front, Internet speeds are really slow and we didn't find much in the way of TV - but we were there to ski, so it didn't matter much to us. And also as advertised, lots of trains pass through Sandpoint. We heard them, but they didn't seem too loud for us. Would definitely stay here again to ski Schweitzer.
