It was a great place- well utilized space to allow plenty of room for visitors. Nice little add ons like the foosball table nice area for family games. great kitchen- well supplied! The host was very attentive to us checking in on any needs and making themselves avaiable for any concerns. Even though we didnt get to ski at Schweitzer (poor snow conditions)- the house allowed us to have have a great time together as a family! We'll likely be back in a future year when snow is better!

Booked for a ski trip with my young kids and my parents. Check-in was really easy and having a large garage with a boot dryer for gear was helpful.With only 6 people, there was plenty of room to spread out. The kids loved having bunk beds! Overall, the furniture and finishings were of a higher quality than you would normally find in a rental.The kitchen is stocked with pots/pans/utensils/dishes so we were well-equipped to make breakfast & dinner before and after skiing. There are even some basic ingredients (flour, cinnamon, coffee, sugar) in the cupboards.James was super responsive (probably the most response vacation host I've had) both before and during our trip. He was able to remotely adjust the heat in the bunk room when a previous guest had left the thermostat remote without batteries, then came by the next day to leave some for us. My clarifying questions about the house were answered within hours (during ski season when he's a backcountry guide, nonetheless).Train noise: proximity to train tracks is fully disclosed in the description and there are white noise machines and ear plugs provided. The noise didn't overtly bother my kids (the bunk room is closest to the tracks) but they did wake up a lot earlier than normal. I'm a lighter sleeper and ear plugs don't stay in my ears, so the trains often woke me up at night. Some of the freight trains pass by every 30-45 min. The upside is that the Schweitzer shuttle is close, so it was still a great overall stay.

We loved our stay here, the photos do not do the home justice! We had three generations in the cabin while we skied up at the mountain. We all had our separate spaces with full bathrooms and a large dining table open to the nice living room. The Starlink internet was great and the large tv in the living room was great for catching the foot ball game. The cabin was very clean, comfortable beds, fully stocked kitchen. Easy access to and from the mountain. We look forward to another stay should we be back in the area.

I flew up from Colorado for a weekend trip with my family and we had a great time. The house layout was perfect for coming together but with enough space between rooms for everyone to recharge in between dinners/activities. The host was super responsive and helpful as well.

House was very clean upon arrival, and had everything we needed.However, there are mice... We started finding mouse droppings after the first day... on the floor, dining table, bathroom, bedroom... And as we were staying with our kids, it was not a good experience...The trains were also quite disruptive, the house and beds are shaking badly hourly, but we did expect some of that from before we booked. Unfortunately we would not stay again and can't recommend it..

Great spot--although the trains throughout the night were an issue for a couple of lighter sleepers in our party, even with the earplugs and sound machines. We loved our time in Northern Idaho!

Good multi-family home

The home had a great layout for our three families, and was very clean and well equipped with everything we needed. The kids loved the bunk room. The only down side was the proximity to the train tracks. The trains going by regularly through the night made sleep a bit difficult.

Perfect Property for Bigger Family!

Great property and amenities...room sizes were great for a family of 7 adults...everyone/every couple had their own private space to escape to after a busy day of sightseeing Sandpoint and the local area. Appliances were all new/upgraded...especially appreciated the washer/dryer to be able to take home clean clothes at the end of our trip. Location is perfect...not why out in the boondocks, but not right in town either...very close to grocery stores and restaurants, even though restaurants weren't much needed for us as the home's kitchen had everything you needed to cook family meals in...the only negative on location was the property is less than 100 yards from an active train line so the provided earplugs were definitely put to use. Even though we didn't use the garage, it's rare to find properties on rental sights with garages and this one had a double garage which would be a huge advantage in the winter. Again, great property and location!

Great Ski Stay!!

Let me start by saying, I stay in a lot of VRBO’s between work and personal trips. This sweet ski cabin is now one of my favorites! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warmth and hospitality. And the location couldn't have been more perfect for our needs (last minute, end-of-the-season ski trip). In 4 minutes, you can walk from the home to the free Schweitzer shuttle – it was a dream to not have to worry about parking on the mountain. And downtown Sandpoint is like a 10-minute drive…locationally it is the best of both worlds! The property itself was immaculate. Every detail was thoughtfully curated, from the cozy furnishings to the well-equipped kitchen. We felt right at home from the moment we stepped inside. I really felt the best part was the layout of the home. It could really accommodate a few families without surrendering any privacy. The VRBO host was incredibly accommodating and responsive to our needs. He provided us with detailed instructions and recommendations for exploring the area, which made our stay even more enjoyable. And I feel that I should touch on the proximity to the train. Yes, there's a train nearby, but it didn't bother us one bit. In fact, we found it added a certain charm to our stay. Overall, awesome stay – my new go-to for our Schweitzer/Sandpoint stays! Thank you!
