About this property

Waterfront Home-Great Fishing, Mountain Views & short drive to Schweitzer Skiing

Please consider staying at our wonderful lakefront home in beautiful Garfield Bay on Lake Pend Oreille. Stay in our spacious (2260 sq. ft.) and comfortable townhome; all of the rooms are large and on one floor so you and your family can spread out. There is great fishing, awesome mountain views, and it's a short drive to terrific skiing at Schweitzer Ski Resort - with paved roads all the way from our front door to the ski lifts.
Our living room is very nice with French doors opening onto the front deck overlooking the waters of beautiful Garfield Bay and the Green Monarch Mountains. The kitchen is extra large, spectacular, and very well stocked. You will love spending time in this gourmet haven.
The home is 20 minutes from the picturesque town of Sandpoint, which has a very quaint downtown, and is blessed with many diverse and affordable restaurants.
If you are planning to fish, you will have your own private boat slip on our beautiful new dock, just steps from the front door.
The house is a great place to relax, unwind, and have fun. It sleeps up to 10 people and is great for one or more families.

Great place to stay in gorgeous area

We loved the Garfield Bay house for our stay. It had all the space we needed and it was close to family down the road. Coffee on the deck in the morning overlooking the lake was our favorite. I especially appreciate the well stocked kitchen, the cotton sheets, and the thick, absorbent plentiful towels. Thank you!

What a gem!

We opted to stay here over staying closer to Schweitzer, and don't regret it one bit! The drive into Garfield Bay is beautiful and the property is 100% worth it. The home is spacious and the view out of all the front windows is breathtaking. Everyone was so pleased!

Exceeded expectations!

This house was perfect for our holiday getaway! Large tv rooms and bedrooms provided more than enough space for our entire group. The kitchen was fully stocked and perfect for making all of our Thanksgiving goodies, the owners have truly thought of everything. And if that wasnt enough, the views can not be beat. It was great to sit and watch the boats on the bay, and even the wildlife (deer, turkey, and geese). The shop downstairs was adorable and the property owners were a dream to work with. We will definitely be back in the future!

A unique and unforgettable rental

This house was not only gorgeous, but in the hub of the Garfield Bay community. It was fun getting to know the folks in the store downstairs and watching the boats come in and out of the marina. Even with all the hustle and bustle during the day, the house was quiet and relaxing, and in the evenings it felt like we had the bay to ourselves. Easy to access swimming and trails, too. Wonderful owners, wonderful rental

Worth so much more than 5 stars

This place is heaven on earth. Picture perfect, so beautiful, just the quiet, water, and sun. Linda was an amazing communicator, checking in several times just to be sure everything was taken care of for us. The downstairs market that Dave runs is fantastic. Perfect kitchen, deck with BBQ, and comfy sitting rockers. We will do our best to return, I am completely smitten with the property and the place.

Incredible vacation

Me, my wife, my sister in law and my 5 daughters absolutely loved this house. The experience was first class from booking through checking out. The location really can’t be beat. We loved being able to walk downstairs for a quick treat. And the girls loved being able to fish right off the dock. Also close proximity to many amazing places. We will be back. Dave is an awesome host. Thanks!

Beautiful breath taking rental home !

I was blown away on how beautiful the home was, it had every single thing we needed. Linda and Dave were AMAZING and extremely helpful it was very nice to know I could reach out anytime if I needed to. They also left my husband and I a gift basket which we thought was very special! We loved going downstairs to the store every morning and seeing Dave and the wonderful ladies who work in there they are all wonderful people, don’t hesitate to book! This has been one of the most beautiful breathtaking home, I have stayed in while using VRBO , and I know we will be back and I can’t wait !! Thank you Dave and Linda for every SINGLE thing we will see you again 🙂

Amazing Home - Beautiful Location

This was a great place for us to stay with our family and friends!. The home is so warm and well-appointed - really could not think of anything more that they could have provided. The views of the lake from the home are unbelievable. The owners didn't leave anything to chance - great communication and care that we had a wonderful stay. They even provided the sweetest little welcome basket. It felt like you were staying at a friends house. We had the pleasure of meeting one of the owners and he couldn't have been any friendlier. We will be back for sure!

Great Stay in Garfield Bay

We loved our stay in Garfield Bay! This home was very clean and comfortable. The views from the kitchen and balcony were amazing. We brought our boat and it was so nice to have it docked right in front of the home. This home is on top of a small grocery store named Odies. We enjoyed going downstairs and getting treats and ice every morning before going out on the lake. The home had everything you would ever need. Once you are inside the home you would never know there is a store under you, it was very quiet. If you are bringing a boat, the nearest gas station on the lake is about a 20 minute boat drive. We would definitely stay here again!

About the host

Hosted by Linda Mercer-Wilson

Our family loves our townhouse in quaint and beautiful Garfield Bay, and we enjoy sharing it with our guests. The people here are friendly and the setting is amazing. My husband and I are the parents of six adult children, grandparents of nine, and retired business owners. Our family loves their waterfront home on beautiful Lake Pend Oreille. We are happy and proud to share it with our guests. Our goal is to make your vacation experience a relaxing one, with no worries or inconveniences, resulting in lots of good memories. It is our hope that your family will return to our summer home many times in the years ahead.

Why they chose this property

If you love the water for boating, swimming, or fishing - this is the place for your family. This is a very unique property, a large swim beach and an excellent boat launch 1-2 minutes from our home. The fishing here is terrific, the bay is excellent for kayaking, lots of good hiking nearby, great bike riding - all on paved roads - right out the back door, and unsurpassed scenery of spectacular mountains and beautiful Lake Pend Oreille.

What makes this property unique

The setting is very peaceful and quiet. There is room for parking four vehicles, guests will have their own private boat slip during their stay, and there is room on the property for parking one boat trailer. Everything is walkable. The boat launch, swim beach, a restaurant 200 feet down the road, and the townhouse sits above a small and very cute grocery store that serves scooped ice cream, baked goods, and many other goodies.
