We were able to house our large family from all over the US comfortably in one place that had more than enough room for our reception which was attended by over 30 people. The house was near the lake and walking distance to downtown. The property manager Mellisa was the best property manager I’ve ever dealt with. She was available 24 hours a day. The house was perfect for family pictures also. I can’t wait to visit again in the summer to use the pool.

Brian & Melissa were the perfect hosts, always available upon request. They greeted us & showed us through the house upon arrival. The weather was at a 30 year low which caused a few challenges as to proper heating in some of the rooms. An outside pipe burst two days before departure so hot water was an issue. However, we had a wonderful time occupying ourselves in the game room, watching sports & movies on the many tvs as well as family game time.

Our group of 9 along with our two local friends had enough room to gather, and enough room to do remote work. We much appreciated that we did not have to buy dish soap, dishwasher detergent, laundry soap, a sponge, etc. Loved the gas range, 2 dishwashers, 2 sinks, 2 washers and 2 dryers, 2 refrigerators, etc. One of the reasons we chose this property was the location. Even though we had multiple rental cars, we often enjoyed walking to restaurants and shops. Oh! And the hot water was always nice and hot! Never ran out even while everyone was showering, laundry was washing, etc. We would defintely stay here again! Thank you Melissa and Brian!

We had such a wonderful time here! We all loved the house, and it was an ideal location for our family vacation. The cousins especially enjoyed time together in the pool! Brian and Melissa are attentive and responsive hosts, but also very respectful of privacy. Would love to come back!

Incredible property in downtown Sandpoint. Our large group of adults included a mix of adventurous skiers & non-skiers. The estate offered a perfect combination of high end amenities + central location with easy access to Schweitzer resort and bars/restaurants in town that everyone was happy with. Owners and property manager were great and very easy to coordinate with. Highly recommend this home for large groups!

Loved it this place was amazing you will not be disappointed

We had four generations of family gathered together to celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary. It was a blast. The accommodations were wonderful and provided space for all of us to gather together as well as find some quiet spots to escape. The pool and hot tub were a huge success and provided a source of many hours of enjoyment. The pool room and parlor were great for some evening hours of music and billiards. Everyone had a wonderful time and we may have to consider a return visit in the future

Very large house with plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms. Great pool and great hot tub. Smoke was heavy but we made the best of it. We did a lot of activities around Sandpoint. Cooked several meals together. We were there 10 days. Jackie, the property manager, helped us out a few times when we needed something and very responsive . I gave her a list of some maintenance items that needed attention. The property is not new. But most everything is functioning, just a little dated.

We had an immediate family wedding and a party the next day for friends. The house was lovely and accommodated us perfectly. The yard was made to look great for the wedding and any problems we had were resolved immediately. Our guests brought children and they thoroughly enjoyed the pool as did we all the rest of the week. The game room was a big hit too. We closed everything down at 10pm per instructions which was nice for us too since family members spent days jet skiing, paddle boarding and kayaking. Thank you to all who helped us to enjoy our stay, our wedding a nd our family reunion.

Beautiful...just as the photos portray. Everything was so easy.

Our stay at Newport Plum Estates was so amazing! We had such an awesome stay with our sweet family & than had our very magical, romantic wedding reception by the pool! Jackie the house manager totally rocked & was the coolest, most down to earth estate manager we have ever worked with & we have stayed at many vrbo's over the years! She would immediately get back to us every time we had a question or needed to talk! Brian & Melissa the owners were very awesome too! The estate is absolutely beautiful & great for an awesome stay with family & an incredible wedding venue! There is a pool so children need to be watched very carefully for safety! The beautiful memories we made here we will cherish forever & we are so blessed & thankful!

Great weekend with our family, weather was perfect, house and pool were gorgeous!

The house well accommodated our large group of kids and adults. It was very nice having downtown within easy walking distance to enjoy everything Sandpoint has to offer. The weather was great making the large pool and spacious outdoor area key for entertainment.

What a great house for spending time with family! We had a great time with plenty of space for everyone!

Clean and comfortable Jackie was amazing she explained everything and made our stay easy and accessible Thank you so much

Thank you for the wonderful experience in Sandpoint. We enjoyed all the space and proximity to downtown Sandpoint. We will be back!

It’s a gorgeous, large house with tons of sleeping areas and large places to congregate. The host was very communicative and very helpful.

Was a great place for family gathering.

great home for a family getaway

Owners and property manager were wonderful! The house is clean and big and in a great location! The highlight for us was the pool and game room; we really enjoyed the space!

The property has amazing location that allows you to access the lake for swimming but still walk to get a coffee or a meal and just a short drive to hike the ski mountain. The house itself is fantastic and literally perfect for a two family retreat or get away. The pool and hot tub are fantastic, the property meticulous and Jackie, the property manager, took incredible care of us-even helping to stock the fridge before we got there. I have to say this property is obviously not cheap but it was a case where we felt like it was 100% worth the investment and we can't wait to come back.

The place was awesome! Lots of space and amenities! The game and theatre room were a hit, and easy to use. Can’t beat the heated pool with cover and vacuum. Plenty of comfortable & clean poolside furniture. Hot tub worked great. Overall the place was quality with plenty of space and very clean! Loved the location and being able to walk/bike to downtown. The owners & manager were very nice, responsive and easy to work with. I’d highly recommend, and would stay again!

We had the most amazing weekend at this property. The house was perfect for a group to get together and play games, eat, and celebrate. The hot tub was a huge bonus after a day on the slopes! The house had everything you needed, I would recommend this property to anyone.

Wonderful Very nice, thank you

Our extended family of 13, ages 6 - 60(ish) stayed here in July 2019. We had a great time in Sandpoint and really enjoyed our stay at Newport Estates. The house was a perfect size for us and having the heated pool, hot tub, games room and theatre room definitely added to our stay. Everyone had something to enjoy that suited their tastes. The location was fantastic! Close to the lake and in walking distance of downtown Sandpoint where we shopped, took in the fireworks (Wow! What a show Sandpoint puts on July 4th!), parade and City Beach. The grounds out front of the estate are also beautiful. We did family photos there and the setting was gorgeous. The large kitchen area with dual dishwashers, fridges plus drink cooler and ice maker made it so easy for us to manage our large group's needs without feeling crowded or like we had to limit the amount food or drinks that we brought in. Having 2 laundry areas also came in very handy. This was our first visit to Sandpoint and absolutely loved this gem of a place. There is so much to do and our only regret was not having more time to take it all in. We golfed the Idaho Club (so serene!), took in Silverwood/Boulder Creek Adventure Park (amazing time and barely any line ups), Schwitzer Mountain (could have spent a whole day here had we known how much there was to do before we went), shopping, shopping, shopping in downtown Sandpoint, pool days when it was a little cooler and City Beach when it was hot. There was so much we didn't get to do, nature touring - hiking/biking near Sandpoint, shopping in Coure d'alene, horse adventures, and more time taking in the water sports on the lake. The weather didn't co-operate or we would have taken in the lake more. Fortunately, there is so much to do in and around Sandpoint that we never ran out of things to do, even on the cooler days. If you've never been to Sandpoint it is definitely worth the trip and we would recommend staying at Newport Estates.

The house is amazing. Heather the house manager was great with communicating with us and grabbed us anything that we needed. We will be back. :-)

The home is beautiful and incredibly spacious for all your guests. I loved the open kitchen and the game room with a pool table. We went skiing at Schweitzer and this location was perfect. I’m sure it would also be wonderful to stay in the summer as well.
