Convenient location close to Priest Lake for families, pets & work-cation stays!

Experience Priest Lake, Idaho in style at Autumn’s Lodge located in “downtown” Priest Lake. Previously ran as Autumn’s Loft art gallery, you can still purchase Autumn's exquisite scenic photographic metals straight off the walls. Walk a half mile to food, gas, hardware, nail salon, gym, and the award winning Priest Lake Golf Course. Enjoy pulling your snowmobile straight up to the front porch of Autumn's Lodge after accessing over 350 miles of groomed trails. Relax in front of the massive stone fireplace while reading one of the many locally written books about the area. Slip on your snowshoes or cross-country skis to enjoy the groomed trails across the road at the Priest Lake Memory Garden and Priest Lake Golf Course. In the summer, ride your bike 3 miles to Hill’s Resort and treat your family (or yourself) to an iced huckleberry bucket drink while the kid’s jump off the dock! Then walk north, up the beach to the Priest Lake Museum! Autumn's Lodge is full of history books for you to enjoy as well as a special Nell Shipman balcony. Step back in time and learn what and who shaped the lake!

Autumn's Note:
"I don't have just one favorite room... they all are! I hope you enjoy my local photography adorning the walls of the lodge and be inspired to get out into nature and experience our land like I have, growing up huckleberry picking, crick fishing, and hiking!"

The lineup...

MAIN FLOOR (Sleeps 6 Adults & 1/2 Kids on Futon):
Front Bedroom - One Queen Bed (Sleeps 2 Adults) and One Small Futon (Perfect for One Adult or Two Kids!)
Back Bedroom - Two Twin Beds (Sleeps 2 Individual Adults).
Great Room - I'd rather be photographing our local wildlife, but in 2012 we hung an award winning elk and a few years later my dad's elk mount. While transitioning from my art gallery to a lodge feel in 2021, we hung "The Griz"... my dad's super moose hide that looks like a grizzly bear! The Great Room has a smart TV for chilling on Netflix, YouTube, Amazon Prime, Disney Plus, etc. The leather couch pulls out to a queen bed (sleeps 2 adults).
Full Kitchen - Small but equipped with EVERYTHING... from coffee, tea, sugar, olive oil, salt & pepper, set of spices, ice maker, refrigerator, toaster, microwave, gas oven & stove top, garbage disposal and dishwasher. Or BBQ with the provided propane on the grill outside.
Bathroom - Pedestal sink & toilet. Mirror, shelf, towel bar, TP holder, all made by dad on his Oscar's Tree Farm! He handmade all the doors in Autumn's Lodge as well!
Washer/Dryer Closet Area
Rustic Dining Nook - Yep my dad made this too!
Office Area - Connect to our very high speed internet and work while on vacation, or stream your favorite movie on multiple devices! Turn on Spotify and chill out to your fave music. The office area has large desk countertops for your laptop and monitors or use the guest computer. Comfortable office chair as well!

UPSTAIRS (Sleeps 4 Adults and 2 Kids):
Master Bedroom - One King Bed, Reading Area, Smart TV, USB Plugin Chargers In Side Tables. My favorite thing about this room... you can watch the shooting stars from bed!
Master Closet - Vanity Desk & Mirror, Infant's Pac & Play
Master Bathroom - Full bathroom with shower & tub, towels, coconut shampoo/conditioner/body wash/soap/lotion.
Kids’ Bunk Bedroom - One Twin Bunk Bed and One Little Kid's Log Bunk (For Ages 2-5).
Library - Full of local history books and local authors, as well as the Priest Lake Visitor's Guide, Priest Lake Chamber of Commerce "This Week at the Lake" flyer, Current Year's Fishing Guide, kid's books and toys.
Nell Shipman Balcony - Enjoy learning about our local 1920s heroine, Nell Shipman! Silent screen actress as well as writer, director, producer, and animal activist... enjoy reading my write ups on this adventurous lady!

Outside:
Enjoy my mom's flower garden and dry rock creek. The purple "Louis' Iris" flowers have been passed around in our family for years! Photograph Monarch butterflies on the Coneflowers during summer as they arrive from down south. From the front porch watch Rufous hummingbirds as they come back each May, as well as visiting deer, birds, and the snowshoe hare rabbits that live under the garden shed. They turn white in the winter! Start an outdoor fire in the evening with S'Mores for the kids! Add on to your stay with a private art class for your party, or a mini family photo session! Choose from fused glass garden art/lightcatchers with local artist Randy Haa, watercolors with Gaye Oscarson, ink on tile with Autumn Kennedy, or acrylic on wood.
I hope you love my lodge as much as I have enjoyed putting all the details together for you! I pray you find peace, relaxation, and inspiration while being our guest! -Autumn

Really great place to stay at Priest Lake
Totally easy all the way through. Easy communication. Easy to check in. Super fun and unique place. Great family room and main area to hang out in. As you have probably already seen, it is an art-centered cabin. Lots of gorgeous art all around the cabin and fun historical tidbits. Everything was exactly as advertised. Great location, easy to find. Stocked with everything you could need on a lake vacation. There was even wood out by the fire pit. It was our family of seven and another family of three and we all had ample space and beds. Nothing but good things to say. Would definitely stay there.

Creative Details Inside Autumn’s Lodge
The building has hand crafted beams with interesting one of a kind details. Reclaimed barn wood sheeting, an old door hanging up high on a wall, and old metal relics are some of the craft styled details. I enjoyed looking at the building and the fireplace!

Great place to stay
We rented this lodge for our family vacation. It was great that everyone had their own beds. It was such a great place that we found ourselves wanting to stay inside but we did venture outside to enjoy the fire pit and walked down to the school to let kids play before walking to the store for ice cream….

Access to Everything
We loved the location of Autumn’s Lodge being close to the golf course, shopping and some great places to eat. We spent a lot of time in Coolin which is a very short drive away. The architecture of the Lodge is gorgeous, with plenty of room for several people. A little too warm for a fire this trip, but the outdoor fire pit is welcoming, as is the big front porch.

Stayed here for my best friend’s bachelor party weekend and it was a great stay. The property is close to many activities such as golfing, boating and evening entertainment. The one and only thing is that the kitchen is very small but had all the necessities.

Thomas Family stay at Autumn's Lodge
Autumn's Lodge is a very nice place with several specialty items that give you a homey feel. The specialty items include log banister, Montana rock chimney, relaxing furniture, rock floor, wall photos of Priest Lake area, updated washer and dryer, updated kitchen and bathrooms. The place was clean and my family felt very comfortable staying at Autumn's Lodge. I would recommend this place for family's that want a relaxing place to stay with nice accents of the local area.

Great Lodge
Autumn's Lodge was a great experience. The only way for the property to be any better would have been if the lodge was directly on the lake. It was close to great food and less than 5 minutes from Priest Lake. The lodge itself was beautiful and well kept. The host was very responsive and everything about our stay was as smooth as we could hope. I hope that we get the chance to stay there again.

Awesome lake trip
We came to play hard and we did. Awesome activities at the lake and the surrounding area. The property itself was great for my group. It says it can accommodate up to 13, but that would have to include toddlers or small children. It was perfect for my group of 6 adult size people and probably 3 more could stay comfortably. Very safe neighborhood. We were very comfortable and would love to come back!

Wedding weekend stay!
We had the best stay at Autumns Lodge! The Lodge itself is absolutely beautiful and close to everything! You are only minutes from the store, golf course, dinning and the lake. We stayed for our wedding weekend with friends from out of town. We had no issues and everything we could have needed was there. I only had to communicate with Autumn once because we locked ourselves out. She answered immediately and got us right in. The lodge was very clean and comfortable. We will absolutely be back!

Great cabin
Overall it is a great cabin. Very nice aesthetics and there is artwork for sale in the cabin. Nice firepit area with many chairs. Large parking area with easy access. There are cameras everywhere outside and it can feel like your being watched. We received a few messages from the host while we were there. When someone rents a cabin, one of the desired features of a cabin is usually solitude and privacy. This cabin is not secluded nor is it private.

Stunning Home Perfect for Large Groups
Autumn’s home was the ideal spot for our group of 4 adults and 5 kids (ages 3 months-9 years). The kids loved the children’s books and bunk room. The kitchen is extremely well-stocked for all your cooking needs. We started off our weeklong stay with temperatures in the high 90s, and thanks to ample AC, the house stayed comfortably cool for sleeping at night. Everything was impeccably clean, the beds and furniture were extremely comfortable, and Autumn was quickly responsive when we needed assistance part way through our trip. The location is ideal, close to Hill’s Resort, Millie’s, the Tamrak, and several other spots. Also worth mentioning the WiFi connection was great, which as a family who has been visiting Priest Lake for many years, we have found is hard to come by. We would be honored to stay at Autumn’s home again!

Annual Tradition Summer Vacation!
This is our 2nd year staying at Autumn's Lodge! It's a great location, has a very cozy feeling inside and lots of room. The 2nd shower they added to the downstairs bathroom was great to have plus the extra air conditioner units they added kept the place nice and cool on the hot days we had. The outside area had plenty of room for all of us to sit outside, BBQ, listen to music and play cornhole together. Autumn has always been very responsive and accommodating. I enjoy renting from her. Thank you again Autumn for letting us rent from you so I can continue to keep our Priest Lake vacation a tradition for my family. Angela K.
