Enjoyable stay
We had a group of 13 adults, 3 kids, and an infant. The house was very comfortable and had plenty to do – the pool table was used regularly, the hot tub was also used at least once a day, and we liked listening to music or watching videos on the TVs. We also used the grill for one of our meals (propane was provided). We appreciated having so many bedrooms, and there were plenty of bathrooms for everyone to use, including showers. It looked clean and taken care of, cozy but still spacious enough to spread out when needed. Some minor downsides: we had to bring our own firewood, which we actually didn’t use (we only used the gas fireplace near the kitchen, which we liked, and didn’t get to using the outdoor fire pit for s’mores like we wanted); the downstairs was usually noticeably colder; there was limited fridge space (since we came during cold weather we were able to keep some things chilled by putting them in the garage or outside); and the property is on a steep slope, which didn’t seem comfortable, especially with kids and during warmer weather. Parking was also limited, but we were able to park along the street so it worked out. We enjoyed the lake – several people went ice fishing multiple times (we made fresh fish soup from the fish that was caught). The scenery and neighborhood were nice, and we made several trips to downtown Coeur d’Alene since it was so close. Overall we had an enjoyable stay and would have liked to stay longer.
