What Our Guests Are Saying
Great location for getting to town or the resort. Nice
Great location for getting to town or the resort. Nice kitchen amenities, though no spices, sugar, cooking oil, etc.
A group of 5 girls enjoyed this house immensely. We couldn’t use the bunk house though. No AC in the bunk house, so it was quite stuffy in there.
Would definitely look at booking again.

We had a phenomenal experience with Vacation Rental. We were notified that our original booked home Downtown Escape was not available and Vacation Rental immediately offered us a free upgrade to another home ViaLago. The home is very spacious and clean with a big back yard equipped with a new gas grill. The kitchen is well-stocked with everything we need and the appliances are new. The king size bed in the master is super comfy. We were surprised to find four fresh bikes free for our use in the garage! And thanks to Lizzy from Vacation Rental who provided us with some great suggestions for hiking/biking trails nearby. We really enjoyed our stay and look forward to coming back!
Amazing Mountain Top Home!
Great high-end home about 25 mins from downtown Coeur d’Alene. Huge home, incredibly well outfitted, stunning views of the lake and valley below, quiet/peaceful, hot tub, huge deck with a great grill, and can sleep a small village! :-). Perfect home base for hiking, boating, golfing, skiing, and simply unplugging.
This is a great cabin – just as pictured. Although
This is a great cabin – just as pictured. Although it says it’s “1 bedroom, 3 beds, and 1 bath” - there is more to it than that. There is a murphy bed on the main floor of the cabin, a loft with 2 beds, and then a separate loft building with another 2 beds. We slept on the murphy bed which really could use a new mattress. Right when we pulled the bed down, there were two trough indentations where you lay. I’d suggest bringing your own pillows.
There is no AC, but there are a lot of fans including an attic fan which pulls the heat out of the cabin. (In the hot months, this would make the loft area unappealing to sleep both from heat and the noise of the attic fan.) There are also no windows that open. The front door has a screen door on it (which is beautiful) and then there is a slider door with a screen. So at night, you do have to be trusting in order to let a breeze in because neither screen door can be locked. Note – the switch for the attic fan is to the right of the fridge (it is quite loud).
Kitchen is decently appointed. Huge dishwasher. Ice maker in the fridge worked nicely. A fair amount of pots and pans, but not a lot of sheet pans or oven-safe dishes Salt and pepper were there, but no other basics.
The location. Loved that it is right on the water. The deck is amazing and the dock is in excellent condition! However, the cabin is 30 minutes from most amenities like a grocery store or restaurant. HIGHLY recommend you stop at the store prior to going to the cabin. There is a small grocery for essentials – called Hutton’s – about 5 minutes from the cabin; however it is just for the basics. They also had flatbreads which looked tasty.
There is a paddleboat available; however it does have a leak – which they’ve tried to repair but that’s not holding. The trunk on the dock has some floaties and life vests as well.
The biggest downfall of the cabin is the bathroom shower – which is extremely small. I’m 5’4″ and it worked for me. But if my 6′ barrel-chested son were to stay here, he’d struggle to move around in that shower. It’s a nicely done bathroom with pebble floor and ceramic tile – just very small.
Overall I probably would not rent this particular unit again mostly due to the location as I like to eat out when I’m on vacation. But I would definitely try to rent from Vacation Rental Authority. They were great to work with when we had to shuffle some things around. And when I did a chat session just to mention the screen door was having some issues, they were out right away to get it repaired. (I was just letting them know for future reference.)

The accommodations I originally booked turned out to be occupied
The accommodations I originally booked turned out to be occupied when I arrived for check in. I went directly the vacation rental office, where I was treated with respect and apologies. They provided me another upgraded rental for me immediately, and they were professional, thoughtful, and really gracious about the whole situation. I would recommend this vacation rental company and any of their properties whole-heartedly.
Peaceful, clean, close to restaurants and shops
Loved this property! The backyard is great, the big tree, lawn furniture and barbeque were perfect. The kitchen is very well stocked, we could do all the cooking we wanted or walk to a local restaurant if we were feeling lazy. The large PC screen in the basement was a hit with the teenager in the group gaming with friends. The pictures don’t do this property justice.
Would definitely stay there again!
Our family had a wonderful time connecting at this beautiful
Our family had a wonderful time connecting at this beautiful home. The views from every room overlooked the lake and lots of wildlife roaming on the meadow below the house. The house offers many opportunities for connecting while giving everyone space. The town of Coeur de Alene was so close and we spent a lot of time at the amazing children’s park.
