We live in this paradise and are very excited to share this home and community with you. Our "White House" accommodates 14 people according to the Sandpoint permit committee. We have a full hook-up for you to bring an rv or two as well for additional guests for a low charge.
You can sit on the deck and look out on the water. You have your own dock on waterfront property! It is in a protected channel that is great for safely keeping your boat or renting one of ours. We have 2 canoes for your use and the channels back here are safe for boarding and swimming. This custom, high quality home is built with a high vaulted ceiling and floor to ceiling rock fireplace in the great room for great visiting.
Imagine starting your day sipping coffee (or tea) on the deck overlooking the water, listening to the birds sing good morning, and watching the eagles soar overhead. Dream of jumping on a pontoon boat and relaxing out on the lake nurturing your soul with the panoramic view of the lake, mountains, and wildlife around you. For the adventurous ones in the group, there is boating, jet skiing, mountain biking, horseback riding, roller coasters at Silverwood Amusement Park or riding up the chair lift or riding bikes down Schweitzer Mountain.
Sandpoint has received many awards for so many beautiful resources and fun activities like our Music Festival and MUCH more! However, although every season is filled with different activities to do, one common theme throughout the year is spending time in a home away from home that welcomes you and your loved ones.
