This home is in a wonderful gated community with lake access. The pictures are an accurate representation. We especially enjoyed the downstairs family room as the sofa in front of the fireplace was comfortable and large. Having a king bed in 3 of the 4 bedrooms was fantastic and an unusual arrangement for a rental. There is access to the lake, a large balcony and a hot tub, but due to the weather (rain and snow) we did not get to enjoy these features. I would advise anyone staying there during the winter that the driveway is rather steep and if it becomes icy and snowy it’s difficult to get up to the main road. I would deffinitely rent this property again.

Everything about this property was fabulous. Spacious – comfy beds – game room – peaceful area. We loved it and wished we could study longer. We can’t wait to book it again and come back.

Beautiful property, zero cell service (which is great). The ceiling fans in the main lounge/kitchen area weren’t working unfortunately but that was hardly any issue

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!

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.

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.

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!

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!

Perfect home for a multi generational family get together!

This was our second family stay at Wildcat Creek Lodge and it was just as wonderful as the first! The location is perfect—quiet, right on the lake with a private dock, and only a short drive to Hayden and Coeur d’Alene. Hayden Lake isn’t known for its beaches, so if you want to truly enjoy the lake, renting a boat is the way to go. Perfect home for families to relax and soak up lake life. Highly recommend!

The home and area are so beautiful! Great location and easy trip to town, theme parks, Hiawatha trail. We had a fabulous time!

Wonderful place and will go back again. There were a few issues of items that needed attention. I mentioned these to the management people and I believe that they will take care of those issues

We stayed for 4 nights and had a great time. The house is very well set up and was a great place for a family getaway!

We loved our stay at the home! It was perfect for our family with space for everyone. The beds were very comfortable and the setting was gorgeous! Would definitely stay again!

The location is stunning with breathtaking views of the lake. The house was perfect for our family gathering. Loved the game room, the master bedroom and bathroom! The only issue is the lack of cell reception. Even with access to the internet and an iPhone you will not have the ability to consistently communicate with anyone outside of the lodge. Highly recommend this place as it was a wonderful home to stay in for twelve nights.

This listing is truly beautiful. Our friend group got to celebrate many life events such as, birthdays, anniversaries, Halloween, and truly relax from our stressful corporate jobs. This vacation was the last time we got to see each other for a year or two as we move into the next steps of life and marriage for most of us (9 total guests). It was an amazing experience that was fun, peaceful, and truly relaxing. We liked it so much, we may make this a yearly trip! Highly recommended. As someone who is a leader in the hospitality industry, believe me when I say they truly do make you feel accommodated and at home. Upon checking in there was a broken window pane that we had to contact after hours maintenance about. They answered very promptly, professionally, and let us know that it would be handled. Very elegant decorations, nice cooking ware, and a beautiful downstairs den. 10/10 will hopefully stay again 🤍.

We enjoyed our stay at this beautiful home. It has plenty of space and also worked for our son-in-law who is a quadriplegic and in a wheel chair. He just had to use his ramps to get into the house and used a small ramp to get in and out of the shower. The only disappointing thing was that the children could not swim at the house. The lake was very mossy and green and not a good place for swimming, ever from the dock. Everything else was great. Thank you for letting us use your home.

We had a great time, we really did not need to reach out to the home owners since we received clear instructions, we appreciate the dog friendly house and are so grateful for the memories we made there! Thank you again for sharing your home!

We enjoyed our family celebrations! Having the dock was exactly what ere were looking for with the rental.

We stayed here for a family trip to celebrate a 70th birthday. The home is beautiful and its location on the lake is perfect. We would definitely return!

This property met the description perfectly! Right on Hayden Lake but still very close to everything!

What a beautiful home with special features and all the amenities needed. Thank you for the stay and for allowing me to create beautiful memories with my family!

Beautiful, peaceful home. Good communication from rental company. It seems to be a bigger organization running it. Only qualm was there was a lot of bird poop on the deck when we got there but I’m sure if we reached out, they would have fixed it for us.

My husband, our two boys (11 and 13) and I stayed at the property over Christmas. It was a great property for us! The view over the lake was amazing from the awesome living room windows. Our boys loved the pool and ping pong. We enjoyed hours of board game fun in the downstairs game room. Communication with the property managers was excellent and they provided amazing local recommendations. Close to CDA and Hayden but far enough to enjoy the beautiful nature/views at the house.

Wildcat Creek Lodge was fabulous for our family 2023 Thanksgiving!! The house was very accurately portrayed on the VRBO website. It was very clean, great beds, towels, kitchen was well stocked... It has great TV and sound systems, ping pong, piano, hot tub, all exceeded our expectation. We received consistent communication from the Vacation Rental Authority which made checking in and out easy. They even left a turkey roasting pan. We could not have asked for more. We recommend the house and management company.

My friends and I had a wonderful time in this beautiful house by the lake. The view is stunning, especially during sunset.
If you want to hang out for food/coffee/groceries, there are plenty of options in downtown Hayden where is only 10 minutes away by car, including Costco, Walmart, Starbucks, Safeway...you name it!
The house is big and we felt comfortable with large open space.
We also had fun playing pool and table tennis...yes you it's very handy!
The host was very friendly and helpful with the information I asked for.
We definitely recommend this property, if you travel to this part of Idaho...by the way, Coeur d'Alene is just 25 minutes away, which is a bonus.

Great location and perfect accommodations for us and our extended family. Highly recommended for large families or multigenerational family vacations.

This home was perfect for families. Safe for children and a wonderful open concept. The lake was very muddy for swimming but the little ones caught their first fish and didn't mind at all.

Great home to share with other families.

We had a large group and the house accommodated us very comfortably with a lot of fun things to do for the kids! We enjoyed fishing at the dock, playing ping pong and playing piano. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking for a nice, quiet retreat! Beds were very comfortable as well! Thanks for a great stay!
