We stayed for a week and absolutely loved the home. As dog people, having the dog door into the back yard was the #1 reason we chose this one. It is a small cottage, not a 3,000 foot home, but was perfect for a short stay. The kitchen is well stocked with lots of pots, pans, dishes, and utensils. The grill cooked some amazing chicken. Our daughter flew in from Florida and the basement suite was perfect for her. The only issue was the head room on the stairs going down, but they even included a cute “Watch You Head” sign. There were a few very minor questions we had and the management teams was VERY responsive. If you are a walker, especially a dog walker, it is a great walking neighborhood. Everyone was friendly except for the flock of wild turkeys around the corner. They for some reason did not want to play with my lab mix. And it is just four blocks to the Tubbs Hill trail system on the edge of the lake. It is a moderately steep but short climb to the top of the hill or you can stay level and take the two mile walk around the hill along the lakeshore. If you are looking for a cozy cottage to have a quiet hideaway, this is it. And if the weather is nice, the back yard is even more welcoming than the inside. It’s fenced and great for kids or dogs. If you would like to go out for food or shopping, there are lots of one-of-a-kind shops and restaurants in the ¾ mile between home and the Coeur d’Alene resort. There is a definite reason this home has 10/10 reviews.
