Plan your next family reunion or getaway with friends at this Coeur d'Alene home that includes two canoes, two inflatable stand-up paddleboards, and water access only 150 yards downhill! Enjoy the views from the large deck out back, which is perfect for outdoor entertaining and group barbecues, and step inside to find a bright living room with a gas stove fireplace, comfortable furnishings, and an entertainment center that opens up to a cable TV. There's even a recreation room on the lower level, offering a pool table (with an interchangeable top that switches to Ping-Pong) and a wet bar for the adults once the kids have gone to bed.

What's nearby:
This home is nestled in a wooded area surrounded by natural beauty, right near the lake. The public access point is nearby (although please note that the path is a steep grade and can be challenging), and there's a canoe caddy in the garage to help you transport the gear. If you're traveling with a large boat, Rockford Bay Marina is one mile away. To experience the culture of Coeur d'Alene, a 20-mile drive will bring you to an assortment of quaint shops and restaurants in the center of town. Come winter, the lakes freeze up and it's not uncommon to see locals ice skating or playing hockey. This charming town also hosts a yearly outdoor ice skating rink (fees apply). Looking for even more adventure?The family favorite Silverwood Theme Park is only 34 miles north.

Things to know:
Free WiFi
Full kitchen
Two dogs up to 50 lbs. are welcome (kennel provided)
Two canoes, a canoe caddy, two inflatable stand-up paddleboards, three oars, and adult- and child-size life jackets provided

Weekend family getaway
This is our third time renting this home so it’s a testament to how much we like it. That said we had two issues this trip. First the door code provided did not work. We waiting quite a bit of time to get some support which was frustrating. Secondly, the hinge on the front door came undone. We were able to fix it so the door closed but it needs to be permanently fixed. Home is perfect for hosting family and great view of the lake. Yes we WIL be back

Tranquil spot in the woods
We stayed 4 days, and it’s a beautiful spot to relax. It’s a lovely property, and the amenities were as advertised. The Queen and twin mattresses could use improvement, and the lack of curtains on the lower level leads to 5am wakeups due to sunlight. The Venetian blinds present just aren’t up to the task. Some of the deck chairs are in need of repair, and one is nearly broken through. Overall, a lovely way to get away from the heat, and breathtaking views of Rockford Bay made this a family vacation that will be a treasured memory.

We loved the location of the property. The house was well laid out and we had plenty of room. It is an older home that needs some TLC to make it a bit more inviting. Overall we had a great time.

We loved the house. It was clean and in a very quiet neighborhood. The downstairs was perfect for our older children to hang out in. We had an issue but contacted the host and they made it more then right for us! Do bring your own laundry soap and toilet paper the house has some to get started but you will need more.

Lots of Space
Big home with plenty of entertainment. The weather didn't cooperate but can't blame the house for that. Gas stove, board games, pool and ping pong were a hit. A little further from town than anticipated.

Beautiful view
We loved the location of the home all though it is difficult if you plan to paddle board etc. There is a narrow strip of public land down to the water but there are huge rocks there so it makes it difficult to launch... we did it but we were hoping for a little better spot than that to launch our paddle boards. The view from the living room is incredible no need for a TV and that good because the TV in the living room will work for movies but not for cable. We did watch a football game while we were there but had to do so from the basement where the cable did work. It would be very nice to have a sheet there with what channels are what (ABC NBC ESPN etc). We enjoyed the games in the house and also used the ping pong table. The home was very nice except for how dirty it was inside. Most of the floors were clean but we had a dirty pan that was left in the oven, the pads for picking up hot things were very dirty and we washed them and they came clean so we assume they weren't washed at all. There were two towels left in the washing machine that had big red stains on them. we had a pretty big infestation of fruit flies in the kitchen that took us about 4 days to get rid of. We contacted the VRBO team but no one ever came to help with that. The master bathroom had a very small amount of tissue paper and the other bathrooms had none. The bathroom in the basement had an old bar of soap left in it so not sure if it was cleaned before we arrived or not. Apart from the home not being very clean inside we enjoyed the deck, BBQ and the view especially. We saw Turkeys, Deer, ducks geese and even a mother Moose with her young while were there. The good thing for the cleaners is we left the home a lot cleaner when we left than it was when we arrived.... We appreciate being able to spend time at such a beautiful place. OH yeah while you are there make sure you go to Shooters, food is great, service is great and also very quick!!

Idaho getaway
We had a great time. The house was as described in the listing. Our stay was during corona and I felt that it was cleaned well. We had plenty of room to spread out and really enjoyed playing pool and ping pong. The fenced in yard for our labradoodle was very convenient, even though the steps down were a little steep. We also used the paddle boards and canoe. The access to the water is definitely steep and could be difficult for the very young or elderly. Due to the weight of the canoe and the steepness of the water access, it was really hard to carry it back up the hill for my early 20something kids. The paddle boards are much lighter and were easier to transport. We brought our boat with us and found that the marina was only a couple of miles away. And we were able to keep the boat in overnight mooring. Over all, we would definitely go to this property again. One minor suggestion, the front of the house needs a little TLC Regarding yard maintenance. And the front entrance needs cleaning. Lots of spiderwebs!

End of June stay
Loved the location and the house. However, there were a few issues with the cleanliness when we arrived. One toilet was plugged, there was what looked like laundry soap (a lot) in the sheets of one of the beds, there were a lot of foreign hairs in the showers and tubs.

Everything was as advertised except the house had a very strong smell upon arrival. Possibly a cleaner to cover up pet odor? It gradually went away during our stay or we got used to it. Other than that, it was a nice place to stay.

Great house, lake access not easy
This house was perfect for our family of six, and it was equipped with everything we needed (kitchen, entertainment, nice deck with view of lake). The only disappointment was the lake access, which was not as easy as we had hoped; the listing could have indicated that it was challenging to get the canoes there, and that there was no place to hang out near the water.

Great Family House near Lake
The property was exactly as described on the Vrbo listing. The area was very quiet and we loved that there was a small fenced area for the dog to safely go outside without being on a leash. Access to the lake is very steep and narrow so keep that in mind. There also seemed to be a lot of carpenter ants flying around -- but being so early in the season maybe that is normal. Overall we really loved the home and all the amenities.

The home was very nice and spacious. I was disappointed that the house was not right on the lake but the view was still good. We were also uncomfortable because the air conditioning was not working and it was very warm during the day. As stated the lake access was challenging but it is a beautiful area!

This was the perfect house for 8 of my friends celebrating two birthdays! I didn’t realize when I booked it that it was 10 miles away from town, so that was the only down side. We loved the location being right on the lake, and the kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed. We did run out of toilet paper and paper towels, but overall we all loved our stay!!
