Boats ‘N Rows ~ Bayview Floating Cabin

Boats 'N Rows – Wake Up on the Water in Your Own Floating Home!

Ever dreamed of waking up on the water, rocking gently as the morning sun dances across the lake? At Boats 'N Rows, you’re not just near the water—you’re on it! This unique floating home offers the perfect blend of adventure and relaxation, giving you a front-row seat to the breathtaking beauty of Lake Pend Oreille, one of Idaho’s most spectacular natural gems.

Mornings on the Lake – No Snooze Button Required!

Forget the city noise—your alarm clock here is the sound of gentle waves and the occasional call of a loon. Step out onto your private deck with a steaming cup of coffee, breathe in that crisp Idaho air, and watch the sunrise paint the lake in golden hues. If you're feeling adventurous, start your day with a refreshing paddle right from your doorstep, or just kick back and soak in the tranquility—no judgment either way.

Welcome to Lake Pend Oreille – A True Water Lover’s Paradise!

Lake Pend Oreille (pronounced "Pond-O-Ray") is Idaho’s largest and deepest lake, stretching over 148 square miles with depths of over 1,100 feet! It’s a haven for boating, fishing, swimming, and wildlife watching, surrounded by the majestic Selkirk and Cabinet Mountains.

Here’s what makes Lake Pend Oreille an unforgettable experience:

Crystal-clear waters – Perfect for kayaking, paddleboarding, or just floating the day away.

Fishing hotspot – Reel in giant trout, bass, and even kokanee salmon!

Endless boating fun – Whether you bring your own or rent one nearby, this lake was made for cruising.

Hiking with jaw-dropping views – Check out Schweitzer Mountain Resort or the famous Mineral Point Trail for breathtaking scenery.

Wildlife everywhere – Keep an eye out for bald eagles, ospreys, and even the occasional moose along the shoreline!

The Space – Cozy, Charming, and Oh-So-Relaxing

This 1-bedroom, 1-bath floating getaway is packed with everything you need for an unforgettable stay.
Fully equipped kitchen – Whether you’re cooking up a feast or just making lakeside mimosas, we’ve got you covered.
Comfy living area – Perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring, with cozy seating and fast WiFi (because even lake life needs a little streaming time).
Pet-friendly – Because your pup deserves a lakeside retreat, too!

Adventure at Your Fingertips

Step outside and onto the water – Kayak, paddleboard, or take a dip!

Minutes from Downtown Coeur d’Alene & Sandpoint – Great food, fun bars, and boutique shopping await.

Hiking, Biking & More – Explore scenic trails and breathtaking lake views.

Silverwood Theme Park – Just a short drive away for roller coasters and waterpark fun!

Sunset, Stars & S’mores

As the sun dips below the horizon, grab a drink and enjoy front-row seats to the best sunset in Idaho. At night, the gentle sway of the lake will lull you to sleep while the stars twinkle overhead. This is lake life at its finest—and it’s all yours.

Book your floating escape today before someone else sails away with your dates!

Boat parking available on back of float home porch. Small dock fee of $40 a night.

Traveling with multiple families or a large group? Please ask us about availability of a 2nd float home add-on, directly across the dock.

Nice view, quiet place

Very clean and comfortable. Murphy bed was was surprisingly nice. Two decks gave great options for getting out the sun when it was hot. Everything works as it should. Neighbors were freindly and not loud.

This was the perfect getaway! The house was so pretty & had everything we needed. The week we stayed was very hot so the a/c was a definite bonus! Will definitely book again & highly recommend.

Loved the "local" feel of this place, It was very peaceful to be on the lake with ducks and even an otter at one point. Great to have use of the kayaks. Well appointed but simple. Property mgt responded immediately to give code to other lock box as the key was missing in the lock box initially given to us. Downsides: Wi-Fi listed in the notebook at the house, did not work. Toilet in one bathroom needs to be bolted down. Murphy bed and couch set-up in bedroom is funky.

The property all in all was good. The location is beautiful. What we were not told is there is paid parking required, we had no idea until we recieved a nasty letter on our car! Lots of emails and info about parking, not one word about having to pay daily for it. Would have sucked to be towed on vacation. Also, the fold out couch bed was absolutely horrendous, we literally had to take turns sleeping on it (even trading with the kids)so no one person had to deal with the pain from sleeping on it the whole trip. We almost left due to this. We would return to the area. I wouldn't book here with 4 of us again. Better for a couple of 2.

Cozy and clean!

We had a blast in this little getaway. Manager of the property very helpful and responsive. Very clean! Primary bedroom a little odd with a couch against the Murphy bed ( you have to shove it out of the way to let the bed down.). Subtitles on tv cannot be removed despite all attempts to get rid of them. Friendly people on the dock, and super close to Captain’s Wheel and Lake House restaurants. Ralph’s Coffee House is close as well for breakfast. Would book again!

BAYVIEW - THE BEST KEPT SECRET IN THE US

We had the most incredible stay at Boats N' Rows in Bayview, ID! We initially stumbled upon this property, but now we can't wait to go back! Everything about the space was so intentionally curated, and it was both cozy and chic! Lake Pend Orielle is simply gorgeous, and the small town of Bayview was no exception. From the kind, neighborly feel from everyone around us to the stunning lake views we were thrilled the entire time. Our favorite thing to do was fish off the back deck in the early morning and evenings! An absolutely unexpected highlight!
