Cozy, rustic, charming and unique tiny cabin in the North Idaho forest on 20 acres next to a creek. Heaven for the Nature lover. 1 Mile to a beautiful Lake. Great swimming, fishing and paddle boarding. 30 minutes to Sandpoint, 25 minutes to Priest River, an hour to Priest Lake, 55 minutes to CDL and 1.5 hours to Spokane international airport. *outdoor hot water shower is disabled mid Oct.-May 1. Are you looking for a place to escape to and tune into Nature? Do you need to get away from your computer and wi-fi ? This is a recharging station for the soul! Deep in the forest and near a non-motorized lake. You will wake up to the birds, the breeze and the sound of the creek. It's a nice well maintained gravel road, almost at the end, so there isn't hardly any traffic.
The wood stove heats up the cabin quickly for chilly mornings or stormy days. There is a Propane grill and a propane 2 burner camp stove (we provide the propane).
The outdoor kitchen area is covered and has a counter top to prepare your food. I have two new Andirondacks outdoor chairs and table along with a free standing fire pit. We have a hammock hanging in the shade of the cedars. A great place to rest or read a book.
There are pans, dishes, silver ware, olive oil, salt and pepper, dish soap and a sink with running water. A Cooler that is built into a work top counter is also provided.
We have tapped into the spring water system! It's wonderful to have running water inside the cabin and also in the outdoor kitchen sink.
We now have power at the cabin. It is minimal, but helpful. there are two beautiful antique chandeliers inside and two outside lights. There are outdoor plugins and also, four outlets inside. There is an oil heater to heat up the upstairs and there is an electric blanket on the bed that keeps you warm in the winter if needed.
It's great to bring flip flops for the outdoor shower, and a flashlight or headlamp. We also provide the toilet paper and paper towels, and towels for your shower (not for the lake). There is Earth friendly shampoo and soap here also.
Guests have access around the tiny cabin. Beyond the cabin and the garden, PLEASE ask for permission by contacting Lori first.Thank you!
Other things to note. Verizon is spotty here. AT&T and other networks like consumer cellar work great! We do have a young 50 pound dog here. She is off leash and friendly and loves other dogs. She will be the first to greet you! Her name is Nevada.
There is normally an instant hot water outdoor shower here. From mid Oct- May 1st it's not in operation. We have to winterize it so it doesn't freeze up. There is still a covered outdoor composting toilet year round.
We provide wood for your indoor fire. If you're going to have an outdoor fire please provide your own wood for it. There is lots of kindling in the forest around the cabin that would be great for your use.
Please check with me first to make sure there isn't a fire ban.
There is a Propane grill and a propane 2 burner camp stove (we provide the propane). The outdoor kitchen area is covered and has a table top to prepare your food. A headlamp is helpful as well as flip flops for the outdoor shower. We do have a few bugs different times of the day, a healthy bug repellant is helpful. ( not needed until summer of course :))
There is only one parking space, if you need to bring two cars please let me know ahead of time.
There is only room for two people at the cabin.
If you’re bringing a pet please ask before booking. All dogs must stay on a leash and be very minimal barking dogs. There is an additional $35 nonrefundable pet fee. If you have two dogs the fee is $55.
Please bring your own Doo-doo bags Thank you!
Also please note that even though you can't see neighbors here they are nearby, along with other guests in the other cabins that we have here. ( they are not close to this cabin).
Sound does travel here so please no music and no loud voices. We consider this to be a quiet sanctuary and retreat.
Remember to print out the directions, as GPS sometimes takes you in the wrong direction! Thanks!
PS there is hiking nearby and there is an information book on the table to tell you more about that and a few restaurants too.
