My family of 17 comfortably spent 5 days in this house. The house is lovely and the grounds are beautiful and very private. I we saw 1 to 3 moose every day we were there which was magical. All the adults in the house used the master shower/steamer at some point in their stay. One of my sons described it as life changing. We would love to stay again.

Beautiful property with great views. The unit is above the shops and restaurants, we were able to walk to restaurants and shops. The place was clean with attention to details. The unit has everything we need, the kitchen was stocked with all the appliances and equipment needed to cook a meal. We enjoyed our stay there, will stay again.

This place was amazing! Felt very private even being close to other homes in the neighborhood. The hot tub was great to use and the back alley entrance was super nice to have!

We loved staying here with 3 generations. There was so much room and spaces for the kids to play (though the adults played some competitive ping ping as well).
Appliances were high end, and we had everything we needed to cook every meal. The storage in the house is massive!
We loved both fireplaces and used them both frequently – especially when the snow started falling.
The living room fireplace was having issues and we reached out. After trying to troubleshoot with us, they sent someone out immediately. They said some parts needed replaced but got it to where we could manually turn it off and on through our stay. We were so grateful and impressed with how promptly they responded.
We loved that we were able to bring our doodle, Murphy. He had a great hike on Tubb Hill in CDA and a couple of good walks near the house.
We would love to stay here again!

The house and amenities exceeded our expectations! Beautiful, well appointed home which was walking distance to downtown. We were there for our son’s wedding and the house was perfect for all of us to gather. Some used the gym and others the hot tub. We appreciated the large Weber grill and the dining table that seated 10. We didn’t ski and would’ve preferred to rate that as N/A. Company responded quickly to messages. I would definitely stay again! Thank you for a wonderful stay!

We are enjoyed are time at Wildcat Lodge – the home is large, comfortable and clean. The kitchen is great for those who like to cook and open to the great room with many windows looking to the lake. Beds were comfortable. The pool table converted to a ping pong table which was fun for our group. missing was a garage door remote or the key pad number to access the garage door. Also, we use Verizon – the home is remote and there is no cell service. You must use WiFi calling.

Everything was easy and seamless. Do wish they could add a rocker chair in main room though. The one upstairs master bedroom was great but one in main living room overlooking wonderful view would be awsome. Everything was very nicly organized thanks for the great stay.

We absolutely loved this house. It’s a very quiet and peaceful neighborhood. We felt right at home and never had one issue throughout our stay, but we knew we could reach out if we had problems. I cannot wait to come back and stay again! Thank you for providing a wonderful place to stay!

The house and grounds were spectacular. They accepted dogs and they had a wonderful yard with grass and trees to play in. Vacation rental authority replied my request for early check in immediately and was same for few other questions that I had. I would highly recommend this rental and other rentals from this same property management team when in the area. I know I will.

We are frequently visiting North Idaho and have stayed at a number of different places. This spot is as advertised. We enjoy the location, the village, and the Spokane river. The condo is spacious, clean and welcoming. We were impressed with the views and ambience. We will be definitely using the spot again going forward, and appreciate the experience and memories created.

Absolutely amazing place to stay. My kids really enjoyed the dock, pool table, ping pong, and space. 100% would recommend VRA to book through. I also left my wedding rings in the master when we left and I was so upset. RC really cared that I was so upset and was able to speak with the cleaning crew to get them all for me and is shipping them back.
Only thing I would recommend is make sure you take a screen shot of all the info to get in. There is no service at the house and I had to drive back ten minutes and call them to get the info. Other than that amazing vacation spot!

Beautiful surroundings. Close to town. Easy to find. Stocked kitchen and plenty of pillows and towels. Sadly, when we arrived there were lots of bugs in the home. I assume someone accidentally left a door open? Luckily once we killed them all, the problem did not continue.
Lovely home!

Fabulous house with high end furnishings and appliances and in suite bedrooms for 3 or 4 couples. Layout provided exceptional space for privacy and to congregate. Great views looking out onto the lake from the large windows and the expansive wrap around deck. Wonderful kitchen with two ovens, microwave, and exceptionally large refrigerator/freezer. Very large lower level level with two bedrooms, family room with ping pong table and large screen TV. Location of laundry room kept noise at a minimum. Drawbacks: Could only get warm water, not hot, in lower level bathroom faucets, shower and bathtub. Smart TV lower level had a frustrating red dot remote that made selecting channels difficult, and no option to use home streaming service (e.g., HULU), although that capability was available on the smaller TV in the Master Bedroom on main floor. Overall: Exceptional location, space, furnishings, and amenities in a house that easily accommodated our 3 adult families. Online pictures don’t do justice to the quality of the house or the views from almost every room of the house. Highly recommended!

This is a home right on the river with incredible views. The mornings are spectacular. The house comes well equipped with all the little things that make a difference for your vacation.
The master bathroom shower is worth a mention all on its own. Its takes home spa to a new level.
If you are a family looking for a vacation home with amenities for all ages, this one is worth a second look.

This is the best location possible for CDA. also the first Airbnb that actually has adequate storage. We had an awesome time. The beds weren’t too bad either. I feel like every Airbnb has the worst mattresses but this one was did not interfere with my sleep. That being said, it is a louder house so if you have sensitivities to that, bring a sound machine.

We stayed here with two of our kids, their spouses, and seven grandkids and there was plenty of space for everyone. The cabin is modern but not fancy, just really comfortable and welcoming. We spent our days outside playing cornhole on the lawn, making s’mores around the fire pit, and soaking up those beautiful lake views from the dock. Only small thing—we couldn’t find a big enough pot for dinner, but the hosts brought one over that same afternoon. Such a great spot for family memories!
