The lodging was very beautiful and the owners were very helpful, welcoming and friendly! Great scenic views, lots of peace and relaxation we really loved it.
We had such a lovely stay - thee most sweet and friendly hostess you’ll probably ever meet. Felt just like home! Definitely our new go to place when we go away
The accommodations were fantastic, the views were amazing. The owners were friendly and educated us on off grid living. Will definitely rebook for future needs.
Host was there to greet us when we arrived and to show us around. She was extremely thoughtful about our birthday and even put up a sign and got us dessert. The views were spectacular, the beds were comfy, the place was immaculately clean and the bird sounds (even a nighthawk!!!) and seeing wild turkeys was wonderful. I would also recommend not turning the additional space into a hunting lodge, as our wildlife are already in peril.
Lovely home with all the amenities you could want. Beautifully thought out decor, spotless, comfy beds, and a stunning view off the balcony. The home owners were so welcoming and responsive! It really is off the main road. We arrived after dark, but the directions provided by home owners and signage in place made it very easy to find the property in the dark.1 hour away from Kootenai Falls and Suspension Brisge that we highly recommend!
The place has every amenity you could think of. You can tell a lot of love and care goes into the place. Everything very clean. Beds comfortable we all slept very well. Fans and AC are great for sleeping too :) loved drinking coffee on the swing on the front balcony. The views are breathtaking. It’s a few miles up a dirt/gravel road off the 95 but I thought it was well worth the drive.
Stayed for a week long hunting trip had a great experience with family members would recommend it. loved the views from the balcony. Jaunita and her husband are friendly people and very welcoming great trip thanks
We enjoyed our stay!!! The view is incredible, and we loved the peacefulness of everything! The inside is so cozy, inviting, and beautifully decorated, I wish I didn't have to leave.
We were only around for a quick overnight stop on our way from Spokane to Glacier, but this was a pleasant stop that we would totally do again when we have more time.
The hosts thought of so many little details to make us feel welcome in this beautiful, off-grid property. Comfortable beds and cozy surroundings in this quaint spot made for a nice stopover.
The hosts are fantastic. The cabin is unbelievably clean, well decorated and grounds are peaceful. I’d highly recommend anyone to stay and enjoy an amazing cabin that has such meticulous detail.
Exactly what we were looking for. A quiet location to get away. The hosts were awesome, made sure we had everything we needed. The house was more than we expected. It had such a homey feel. The kitchen had everything you need and more. Great deck with a great view. If ever in the area again will definitely be back.
Our stay was great! This location was about 30 minutes from town, remote and very quiet. The lodge is absolutely beautiful and the host was more than accommodating. They had toys for our toddler, games and everything we needed to be comfortable during our stay.
A comfortable, quiet, unique place to relax and enjoy the view. The host greeted us and showed us all the details of the place she checked on us through out our stay to see if we needed anything. The place is fully stocked with everything including snacks.
Location had outstanding views, is off grid but all the amazing amenities that you would need. Owners have done a beautiful job, very clean and comfortable. Jim and Nita are very accommodating and really made our 30th anniversary extra special with all of the extras they did for us!
We loved our stay! Great host ,wonderful view, great getaway! The road in can be a challenge this time of year 4x4 or all wheel drive would be a plus! The pin for it is in bonnersferry but it is about 10 miles north witch makes the view all that much better! Jim is a fantastic host! Thanks again for a great place!

This is where you can experience true “off the grid” vacationing. You are truly in authentic, beautiful, northern Idaho where the scenery is unbeatable and there is no one nearby for miles. The property is self sufficient. This is the answer for a rustic, restful, scenic stay off the beaten path. We will return again.
This is one of the best Vrbo places we have ever stayed. Every thing was perfect. We would highly recommend it to anyone who passes through Bonner ferry ID. We will stay again when we pass through again for sure. Loved it. 😍
You won't find better hosts! Jim and Nita were incredibly thoughtful, sweet and practical. The cabin was a great space for my mother in law to have her own room, and my kiddos to have cozy sleeping spaces (hide-a-bed).
The road was well maintained gravel and a gorgeous drive!
This is a great spot for a getaway or if you’re just passing through. You won’t find a view of the mountains like this one in Bonner’s Ferry. The owners were accommodating and friendly. Make sure to bring a car that can handle dirt roads!
My family stayed here on the way to Canada. Jim and Juanita are the perfect hosts! Directions to the house were easy to follow, and Jim met us when we pulled in. He showed us around the space, and let us know there was some complimentary snacks and food. The beds were comfortable and everything is very clean. Definitely a more fun and enjoyable experience than staying at a hotel! Be sure to do the bear scavenger hunt game that Juanita put together and see if you can count all the bears!

What makes this property unique
What makes our property unique is it is not a motel or hotel but a home in the mountains of Northern Idaho. With rivers , mountains, valley, open sky and wildlife just outside your door. It is a chance to experience Gods creation up front and in person. You may want to BBQ your favorite dish in our spacious Pagoda then relax to natures sounds and quiet peace. Its not for everyone, it’s not ordinary. It is a special place for special people.
