About this house rental
You will enjoy your morning coffee or sunset evening glass of wine from the beautiful 1000 square foot deck overlooking Lake Pend Oreille. This private, peaceful retreat is minutes from the vibrant town of Sandpoint and the City Beach. The cabin retreat has 2 bedrooms equipped with double queen bunk beds, dressers and can sleep 8 people. High speed Wifi and Netflix are also included. There is a propane Bar-B-Q and an outdoor oversized stone patio with fireplace, full kitchen and washer and dryer. Just a 15 minute drive to Schweitzer, a 40 minute drive to Silverwood Amusement Park, a 20 minute bicycle ride to City Beach or a 5 minute drive to downtown Sandpoint . Close to great hiking and biking trails. Enjoy all the great things this amazing town has to offer...great shops, restaurants, festivals and best of all amazing weather!! In the winter you can ski from nearby Schweitzer Mountain, snowmobile, cross-country and snowshoe. Year round activities at your doorstep. The retreat is pet friendly. We have a chocolate lab named Murphy and with the home on Murphy Bay, Murphy's retreat came to life.

We absolutely loved this property, it was very well stocked with everything you need. Great value for all this property offers. You can tell the hosts are welcoming and really care about your stay. Very clean and comfortable - the kitchen and main living space was perfect size for our group of 3. If there was one area for improvement it is that we were not fans of the queen bunk beds - it felt claustrophobic since one side was pushed up against the wall, and very limited head room - but the mattresses were very comfortable. Amazing outdoor spaces - decks and patio. Overall the property was one of the best we've ever stayed at - highly recommend.

The cabin was even nicer than the pictures and our hosts responded to us quickly. We are already planning another trip to this beautiful cabin!

We had a great stay... very comfortable retreat for us. Only wish the rain would have stayed away so we could have enjoyed the deck more.

Great little cabin that met all of our needs. Loved staying here for the week. Having Schweitzer to ski 25 miutes away, the town to hang out in, and being able to drive to Coeur d'Alene for one day.

House looks better than the pics show. Really well taken care of and stocked. Great view of lake and close to town but totally private at same time.

Our stay was very relaxing. As I noted with our survey above the hosts were exceptional at communicating and their property was perfect for our family.

We stayed here with our two dogs and it was the perfect spot! Conveniently located- just a short drive away from beaches, trails, good food and all the adventure Sandpoint has to offer. The place was spotless too! We loved the map of the lake that the owner put on the wall which describes all the locations to visit and where dogs are welcome. If we make it back this way, we will certainly stay here again. Thank you to the owners for working hard to make this such a wonderful place to stay with our “kids” (pups).

Beautiful setting. Plenty of amenities provide by hosts. Fabulous outside decks and fire pit. Not much of a view of lake but at least a peekaboo. Would definitely stay here again!

Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Murphy Retreat. The house was clean and we appreciated the special touches left by the owners such as the welcome cookies and farm fresh eggs. The owners were very thoughtful in regards to the needs of their guests, assuring that the house was filled with anything we may have needed during the duration of our stay. Beautiful setting, quiet neighborhood and centralized location. We would definitely stay here again.

Great property for laid back people. It was great in the winter without a lot of the cabin’s perks because of the weather. It would be even better in the summer.

A great retreat with a great view.
This is our second stay at Murphy's Retreat as we enjoyed it it so very much the first time. It is immaculate, well thought out/equipped and very convenient. What a treat for it to be dog friendly too!

The communication with the owners was perfect. The instructions for checking in and info about the house were overwhelming in an e mail. You could just send simple check in info and then have a notebook at the VRBO that people can use as needed. The kitchen and living room were somewhat remodeled and nice. There was an immense amount of food in the refrigerator which was kind of gross and left us very little room for our food. The bedrooms and bathroom were very old and beat up. The shower was great with a hand held shower that you could use to wash a dog of toddler if needed. The interior was ok clean but there were places of spilled drinks. They outdoor space was gorgeous. Unfortunately we were gone hiking during the day so we did not get to enjoy the outdoor space, but the BBQ worked great. The outside trash cans did not have lids and were overflowing with trash. I'm glad no critters got into them. Over all a great place to stay with you furry family.

The check in process was very easy and communication with the owners was great. Some parts of the house are dated (the bathroom), however it appears that the owners are renovating over time because the kitchen was very modern. There is no lake access and very little view. The pictures make it appear that it's tucked away in woods. It's right off of the road and among many other homes. That being said, there is still plenty of privacy and patio space because of the trees/bushes. It's also very quick drive into Sandpoint.

Our overall stay was good, but I feel like I should bring a few things up to the owners because I would want to know! There is a major ant problem inside and outside of the home. Our youngest son had ants falling on him from the top bunk in the 2nd bedroom and ended up sleeping on the couch because it was so bad. All 3 boys had bites by the time we left on Wednesday. There is also a lot of bees, which made it hard to be outside. I realize this is out of your control but based on how many bees there were there may be some nests that need to be removed. The garbage can outside was stuffed full when we got there, we did take it up to the end of the driveway Tuesday night but there was no room for the one bag of garbage we created during our stay. Also, it’s amazing that you provide kayaks and paddle boards for renters to use and we were really looking forward to getting the kids out, but we didn’t realize when booking that there wasn’t lake access within walking distance. Had that been clear in the listing we would have brought our truck. As it turned out we we were not able to get on the water. To be fair it was in the information we received when we got the door code. Again, not trying to be rude in any way just thought I would share these things for the future.
Thank you!

Wish we had booked this house for longer. Perfect outdoor area for dining and roasting s’mores. You can tell the owners are awesome by the detailed map with all the need to know info provided on the wall. Love that it was dog friendly.

Comfortable 2 bedroom with lake views and great deck and patio. There is a little noise from traffic going on a road above and behind the house, but you only hear it when you are on the deck or patio and it is minor. The cabin is older but they have remodeled the great room/kitchen area.

House was clean and had everything we needed. Location was great and we enjoyed the big deck and fire pit. Kayaks were a nice bonus we don’t usually see. Would definitely stay here again.
