About this property

Cozy Lakefront Cabin on Lower Twin Lake w/ Private Dock & Beach

Quaint Rustic One of A Kind Waterfront Cabin on the shores of Twin Lakes Idaho. If you have never been to this part of the country you are in for a treat!

Located on the secluded, tree-lined side of Twin Lakes, Idaho, this home is in a quiet neighborhood but is also close to town and close to a Really Awesome Golf Course. That means you will be able to sleep peacefully without the noises of city living, but still be within a quick trip to restaurants or grocery store.

This cozy little cabin comfortably sleeps four people, though up to 6 guests may stay here. The large living area has plenty of space for everyone to sit and busy themselves with different activities, whether they prefer to watch Netflex, a DVD or VHS movie, play a provided board game, or just sit and enjoy the view. Please note that WiFi is available in this home.

The full kitchen has all the appliances and tools you may need to cook up a meal for everyone, and it even has a waffle iron in case you want something special for breakfast.

Two bedrooms have queen-size beds, one bedroom has two twin beds. Outside, a large, grassy yard gently slopes downward toward 95 feet of sandy shore of the lake and your private dock. This area is great for boating, swimming, kayaking and fishing for Salmon, Trout and Bass either in a boat or right off the dock and is so beautiful that you may prefer to sit on the deck (complete with patio furniture and a gas grill) and watch the wind ripple gently over the surface of the lake.

This home would be a perfect place to spend some time relaxing with your loved ones while enjoying the lake. Twin Lakes is exactly that, has two lakes to explore. An upper lake and a lower an upper and lower lake. Northern Idaho has many amazing outdoor activity options, such as hiking and biking trails, golfing, and a variety of lakes, plus Coeur d'Alene is only 20 miles south, so you may want to take a quick day trip into a larger town for even more choices. Silverwood Theme Park is only 15 minutes away, which is 100 acres of family fun, boasting the worlds longest wooden roller coasters and a giant water park! The park transforms itself into "Scareywood Haunted theme park" during the month of October for a spooky fun Halloween experience.

With a one-of-a-kind layout and plenty of space for everyone to spread out, this lakefront home is an amazing place to relax and enjoy the beauty of the area.

Kayaks and Canoe provided for your enjoyment!

Perfect rustic retreat

Beautiful cabin that felt more like a home than a rental. Owners thought of everything with a well stocked kitchen and comfortable beds. They did a beautiful job of preserving an old cabin with its charm but adding modern comforts. The back and kayaks were wonderful and we spent a lot of time sitting in the chairs on the dock.

Charming cabin

We spent a week at this lovely, rustic cabin and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Surprisingly spacious with comfortable beds, and a very well stocked kitchen that allowed us to prepare alot of meals. Beautiful view of the lake from kitchen and deck/yard area, we spent most of our time there or on the beach. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and plan to return.

Lovely visit to Idaho

We really enjoyed our visit. The cabin is rustic but very comfortable and clean. The one bathroom only was hard at times BUT we spent lots of time enjoying the outdoors and local water park. The location, private dock, water toys and fully loaded kitchen made up for it. I can't say enough about the location. It was so easy to get to everything we wanted to do. The hosts are also super helpful and very nice. FYI. All bedrooms have doors and even with a walk through bedroom we had very comfortable sleeping arrangements. We will be back next summer!

Vintage Cabin in great setting.

Our three generation family thoroughly enjoyed our time in this historic, well-equipped cabin. Children had great fun fishing from dock. Catherine the property manager was outstanding; super responsive and helpful. Dock was unstable in rough water conditions, but owner will address.

unsafe property

This is wonderful location, comfy beds, great kitchen. The deck has great views! However, the cabin floors were uneven, rough and slanted. Our child cut her foot on the rough cement in front of the fireplace. The steps leading down into the kitchen were, again, uneven and poorly marked.Fortunately no one cut their foot on the 15 or more rusty nails we picked up off the beach. The water pressure in the shower was so low it was impossible to rinse one's hair. The water in the washer was hot even though the dial said cold/cold. I contacted the owner about the water issues early in our stay. I heard from them three days after I checked out. My advice--go to TwinLakes! But book another spot.

Rustic Retreat

We enjoyed our stay at the cabin, but it was definitely more rustic than we expected. The good: the dock, provided kayaks and the lake view are superb. The house is well stocked with basics! We spent as much time as possible outside and on the dock. The kids swam and swam and swam, the parents enjoyed the dock chairs. We were told by the owners a few days before arrival that water pressure was a known issue. It was nearly impossible to shower with the trickle of water coming from the shower. Not the owners fault, but made the stay less comfortable for sure. I didn’t know (or perhaps didn’t read details) that one of the bedrooms is a walkthrough room which made using the bathroom at night challenging, as you are trying not to wake the people in the walkthrough room up. Again, not the owners fault but I guess I didn’t pay close enough attention. Overall we all enjoyed our stay and feel completely refreshed!

Amazing place to recharge!

We had an amazing week on the lake. Beautiful, quiet (much quieter than surrounding lakes), and relaxing. We loved the dock, kayaks, and deck and spent most of our time outside on the lake, watching eagles and osprey, or reading in the shade. The hosts and property manager were great and answered all of our questions. If you are looking for extreme luxury, this cabin is not for you. If you are looking for an amazing setting and a beautiful, rustic cabin that still has all the comforts of home, this place is for you!

Family vacation

The house is in an excellent location right on the lake and 20 minutes from Silverwood. It is an original cabin to the area meaning it is a log cabin that has been retrofitted for plumbing etc. an addition has been added for the kitchen and dining. The floors are uneven, the majority of the original cabin windows are sealed shut and the layout is awkward. The entrance goes to the bedrooms and you must pass through the second bedroom to access the kitchen or bath. The outdoor space is incredible and the dock is amazing. However, there is a church camp 2 doors up which has multiple boats speeding around causing wakes and waves that almost make it impossible to enjoy the dock or swim off the beach. I really feel bad for all of the neighbors who have to tolerate this everyday. The home is well maintained and suited for extended stays. The property manager is fantastic and the owner was responsive in reasonable time. The contract states you are supposed to meet with the cleaner to get the key and contact info will be sent prior to your reservation. This needs updated. After reaching out before my departure I was informed a lockbox is on the property. I’m not sure I would have been provided the code had I not reached out first. In planning travel it would be nice to know an additional stop at a last minute location isn’t needed. Overall I would say it was a great stay and the children thoroughly enjoyed the home.

Excellent lake cabin

We loved our stay on Twin Lakes. Pristine lake that was great for kayaking, open water swimming and fishing. Our boys caught several bass right off the dock. We stayed during an unusual heat wave so the lake was ideal during the day. It was a little hot to sleep this week but I suspect typically that would not be an issue. The cabin is charming snd the kitchen is perfect for family meals. We would love to come back.

Exceeded all expectations!

Location, location, location. If you’re looking for a place where you can sit on the deck, drink coffee and wine all while enjoying an amazing lake view, this is your place. Want to spend the day kayaking or fishing from your private deck, just 50 yards from your cabin front door, this is your place. We can’t wait to return next year but for longer!

A wonderful getaway in a great cabin

We enjoyed our week in Frances’ and Alan’s cabin so much, it really exceeded our expectations. Cabin was very clean and well-stocked. We cooked every meal there and had everything we needed to do so. They have a good selection of knives, always important for cooks. We were a family of three and it was very spacious for us. The set up (a walk through bedroom) would make it somewhat less private for more than one family. There was one raft there that we used every day, we should have brought a couple more with us, we recommend that for floating around the dock. We loved using the kayaks every morning to explore the lake. We heard a bit of road noise in the mornings during the week, and boat / sea doo noise during the afternoon / evenings but otherwise was very quiet, and the noise is what you’d expect at the lake. We don’t have a boat and didn’t feel like we needed one to enjoy the lake all week long. Also, both the owners and the folks who clean & leave the key were very responsive and helpful. Highly recommend this rustic cabin for a relaxing getaway on the water.

Comfortable cabin on lower Twin Lakes

We really enjoyed our stay here. The living spaces are very comfortable and roomy. The air conditioner is so nice for hot summer days! This cabin was great for our family of 4. One bedroom you need to either walk through to get to the other ones or walk around outside to get to the other bedrooms. We just had our son in there and he didn’t care of some walked though his room. The kitchen is huge and fun to prepare your meals in! We would love to stay here again.
