Family gathering

There were 6 of us family staying in the house together attending a celebration of life. We had some other family members join us for a dinner and there was plenty of room in the living room to hang out together and the dining table was large enough for us to dine together. The kitchen was extremely well outfitted with quality cookware and appliances. ( I love to cook, so that is important). We could walk everywhere.

Sandpoint Charm

What a wonderful time! We needed nothing during our stay in this home. The house is clean and comfortable with all of the necessities and more. We enjoyed lounging around inside and out. It’s a quick easy walk or bike ride to town. My kids enjoyed exploring on their own, fishing in Sand Creek and eating at all the great places. I hope we can return one day!

Cute and comfortable Lake St. Cottage!

This property was so cute and comfortable with everything that is needed! We only wish we could have stayed longer! It was a great place for us to stay with our 3 adult children but would be good for young families too. Paula was very responsive to our needs and questions. Thank you!

Family Ski Weekend

Oh so cute!! We loved the home! Clean and cozy! Very well laid out! Held the group of us so perfectly. Kitchen is very well stocked! Plenty of dishes for the whole day before having to run the dishwasher! Good quality of pots and pans! Great dining table, space for 10-12 for dinner and games afterwards!

Amazing cottage with every amenity in a great location!

We came here to celebrate my mom and sisters birthday, the cottage was the perfect fit for our getaway! From the cute theme/decorations, to the cozy beds, to the top of the line kitchen utensils/dishes we loved it all! Paula was extremely responsive to all of our questions and very helpful when I had to change my dates. The location is minutes to downtown and a great bike trail. The tandem bike was the hit of the trip! Thank you for an incredible weekend and sharing such a great cottage to celebrate the birthdays!!

Great stay at a great property

Pleasantly surprised by this cottage, as the pictures online definitely don't do it justice! It ended up the perfect setup for our group - the kids enjoyed swinging in the backyard, the check-in/check-out process was seamless, and it's close to both the water and downtown. The only feedback we'd have is that the televisions are both in need of updating; we stayed here on the night of an important Gonzaga basketball game and the picture quality on the main television made it look like we were watching an 80's or 90's replay rather than a live game! Other than that, this place is ideal for a Sandpoint getaway!

Exceeded Expectations

Was completely accurate to the impression we got from the listing…but what wasn’t shown, although greatly appreciated was how well the home was eqipped for everyday living. Hair dryers, laundry products, great kitchen gear…even spices and soaps. You could literally just walk in and live. Was more than enough space to be comfortable and have fun. Great layout for big groups of adults and kids or whatever. Landlord was super sweet and helpful. Everyone in our group had an amazing experience.

Great location and nicely appointed.

We did a father/son ski trip and the house worked out great. Sandpoint homes are older and smaller, and the layouts are a bit quirky, but the house was great for our needs. The lots in Sandpoint are small too (old RR town). There are 2 main bedrooms downstairs, and the upstairs queen, and the twins/daybeds are all in one big attic room. 2 families could easily fit with the kids upstairs. We had 3 dads, an uncle, and 3 boys (3, 12, 15) and were comfortable. The host was responsive.

Great location and well equipped house

This house met our needs well. Two families with 3 teenagers. Both sets of parents had their own rooms, kids had upstairs to themselves. Upstairs is a bit funky--no real bedroom; but a curtained off area with 2 twins, and then more open space with queen and two day beds, and full bathroom. Our only complaint is the HVAC is quite noisy. We couldn't really figure out how to alter the heat system, it seemed locked into its program. The fan for the system went on at 5am, even though "wake" was at 6am. Otherwise, we were very happy with the layout of the house, space, kitchen was amazingly well appointed. quiet neighborhood and close to town, easy to access Schweitzer too (though skiing was not great due to low snow). FYI: Make SURE you park across the street during the winter. The side of the street the house is on does NOT allow parking in the winter, due to snowplow action. We learned this with a warning from the Sandpoint PD. This information is NOT easily visible unless you see it on a stop sign. In the dark it is not visible at all.

Fantastic family vacation home

Spacious. Homey. So many thoughtful touches. Loved the bikes. AC kept the house very comfortable during a week-long heatwave. Lots of dishes so we could have others join our group of 6 for meals. Comfortable beds and pretty main floor bedrooms, but not much privacy on the second floor, which is basically open plan. Front porch is SO cute and a great place to sit, rock and read or chat. Loved that the backyard was fenced for our dog but the daily sprinklers made it kind of muddy. The ancient, enormous willow tree is absolutely beautiful and provides lovely shade. The landscaping in back needs work, but that would just be icing on an already beautiful cake.

Quick visit with adult kids

This was a great spot - easy to find, comfortable and well appointed, and close to everything in Sandpoint. We couldnt get in at first, but we were able to easily contact the owner and get the code updated (the power had been off). My daughter was interviewing up at Schweitzer and my son and I played disc golf at a local course which was cool, even though it was pouring rain! We had a great coffee at a nearby roaster and a nice dinner at Baxters. This house was an easy walk to the lake and nearby park. I'd stay again if I ever go back to Sandpoint!

About the host

Hosted by Paula LePage

I have always loved entertaining guests and it is my joy to share my home in Sandpoint.

Why they chose this property

When I first visited Sandpoint in 2005 I was instantly captivated by its sophisticated simplicity. It is a step back in time to a simpler America but has all of the modern amenities travelers love….GREAT restaurants, hip wine bars and brew pubs, a thriving art community, live entertainment and lots of outdoor activities in the midst of beautiful scenery… a winning combination for a relaxing and exciting vacation experience.

What makes this property unique

I have ALWAYS wanted to live in a vintage cottage and this sweet cottage makes my heart sing! I love that it is so conveniently located close to town, just one block to a large health food grocery store. When I am there I park the car and bike or walk EVERYWHERE! I love to sit on the front porch with a cool drink and some good friends or BBQ in the backyard with the whole family. My guests love the big kitchen table for family meals and playing games. It’s just the perfect place for a memorable relaxing vacation.
