This tranquil ski chalet nestled into the base of Schweitzer Mountain, featuring breathtaking views and lavish amenities, is destined to make your next Northern Idaho escape unforgettable.

Ideally located near private forested land and just minutes from town, you’ll discover local attractions such as Baldfoot Disc Golf, Action Water Sports, and Lakeview Park all within a five-mile radius. Spend a day playing a round of disc golf in a scenic setting, kayaking, paddleboarding, or simply lounging on the picturesque shores of Lake Pend Oreille. In the colder months, nearby Schweitzer Mountain Resort offers top-tier skiing and snowboarding, as well as hiking and mountain biking in the summer.

Step into your peaceful getaway and be welcomed by a sun-soaked, open-concept living area bursting with charming rustic decor that beautifully blends the surrounding natural elements. Snuggle up on the plush sofa to stream your favorite movies on the smart TV, or sip some cocoa by the wood-burning stove. A well-appointed kitchen boasts modern appliances and ample counter space for effortless food preparation. Gather at the adjacent table for delicious home-cooked meals and then break out the board games. Should weather permit, utilize the outdoor grill for a barbecue and relax on the spacious deck, reveling in the crisp air and flowing creek song. The well-furnished bedrooms feel extra inviting with cozy linens and vintage artwork. After a fun day on the slopes, unwind with a glass of wine on the balcony to watch the sunset or indulge in a rejuvenating soak in the private hot tub to soothe those aching muscles. Even better, sit around the firepit for s’mores under the stars, and reminisce on another wonderful day in this alpine paradise.

Ski enthusiasts will delight in additional amenities such as a ski boot dryer, a ski tuning bench, and a well-stocked library of classic ski literature for those warm and peaceful nights in.

We loved this place! Great spot, we saw lots of wildlife. It was a short drive away from Schweitzer and Silverwood and away from the busy resort areas. The hot tub was a great bonus that our kids loved and said they never wanted to leave. It was also the cleanest place I think I’ve ever stayed in, including most hotels. Most the large appliances seemed to be brand new as well as blankets, sheets and even mattresses. It was perfect and we will definitely be back! Thank you to our host/hosts!
