About this property

Cozy Lakeside Winter Cabin, Pet Friendly, Cedar Hot Tub with Moonrise Views

Tucked among the evergreens on the southwest shore of Priest Lake, the Treehouse is a spacious cedar retreat with beautiful filtered lake views. Built above our family’s garage, this two-bedroom home is private, light-filled, and surrounded by nature, designed for relaxation in every season.

Inside, you’ll find vaulted cedar ceilings, large windows, and an open floor plan connecting the kitchen, dining, and living areas. The space feels bright and airy in summer and warm and cozy in winter, thoughtfully equipped with everything you need to feel at home. Step out onto the large deck to grill, dine, or enjoy a quiet morning coffee while snow settles on the pines.

After a day exploring the lake, trails, or nearby winter recreation, unwind in the cedar hot tub. Soak beneath the trees, watch the light shift across the water, and let the stillness of Priest Lake settle in. It’s an especially peaceful way to end a winter day.

Guests have access to our 69 feet of shared sandy beach and private dock, just a short walk down the path from the Treehouse. In the warmer months, tie up your boat (up to 24 ft), enjoy the fire pit by the water, or wade in along the shallow shoreline. In winter, the lakeside setting offers quiet walks, open views, and a true sense of escape.

The Treehouse is located in Kalispell Bay, one of the most sought-after areas on Priest Lake. You’re close to the marina, resorts, hiking trails, and dining, yet tucked back in a quiet, tree-lined neighborhood.

Priest Lake Marina: less than 5 minutes away (boat rentals, fuel, supplies)
Hill’s Resort: a short drive or scenic walk for dining, drinks, and winter recreation
Elkin’s Resort: 10-minute drive with lakefront dining and seasonal events

In summer, spend your days swimming, boating, fishing, or exploring the lake’s many islands and trails. In winter, cozy up after snowshoeing or cross-country skiing along the shoreline, or take a scenic drive to Schweitzer Mountain, Idaho’s premier ski destination, about 1.5 hours away.

Amenities include:

Two spacious bedrooms, each with a queen bed

Fully equipped kitchen with oven, stove, refrigerator, and coffee maker

Washer and dryer in unit

BBQ grill on the deck

Fast WiFi and smart TV

Pet friendly with pre-approval

Shared dock, fire pit, and beach access

Please note: The Treehouse sits above our detached garage with approximately 20 stairs to the main entrance. The beach and dock are shared with our family’s main cabin and are located a short walk down a gentle path.

Winter stays currently reflect a seasonal holiday rate.

Whether you’re here for quiet mornings by the lake, evenings under the stars, or snow-filled winter weekends, the Treehouse offers a comfortable and welcoming home base to enjoy the best of Priest Lake.

The cabin is even more beautiful in person than the photos as others have said. It was very clean and very comfortable. All the details have been thought out. The hosts were very sweet and helpful during our stay. My son loved playing in the sand, taking our paddle board out and fishing from the dock (even though we didn’t catch anything) it was a really fun experience!

Absolutely beautiful “treehouse” cabin, beautifully decorated, clean, big spacious rooms, comfy beds, great walk in closets, awesome lake view from deck, clean beautiful beach with new dock, and all the details/amenities to make stay comfortable and convenient covered.

Relaxing retreat at the lake

Our family had a wonderful and relaxing stay at the treehouse at the lake. There are wonderful views of the lake and the hosts allowed us to use their lakefront which is only 200 yards from the front door. The accommodations were beautiful and masterfully crafted with all amenities needed.

Relaxing stay in Priest Lake!

We really enjoyed our stay here. The location was a perfect mid-point for us to be able to explore all the different groomed XC ski areas (they're amazing!). The host was responsive & quick to resolve a small issue at check-in; there is a caretaker on site in the main home which expedited the process. We were grateful for the host being willing to allow us a late check-out!

Priest lake tree house

We really loved this place. High above a really sweet garage and surrounded by tall pines, it felt like a tree house. Huge deck with a nice grill that we used a few times. Nice decor inside and well appointed. Really liked the kitchen and bath. Easy access to the lake. Recommended.

Absolutely wonderful

Instructions were super clear, had everything we needed, and more! The owners happened to be in the main cabin when we got back from kayaking (in the snow) and they came out and we’re the nicest people ever with cute little dogs. The extra blankets were soooo cozy and all the games and puzzles were super nice. Will be back again in warmer weather lol

Winter Wonderland

I had an amazing time at the cabin with my wife and our 3 children. We got to enjoy the fresh snow and the beautiful landscape. There are several cool sledding hills in walking distance. We even had the chance to wake up to a group of deers walking around in the snow on Christmas morning: truly magical! The cabin itself is gorgeous and well furnished, and the hosts are really nice and helpful. I heavily recommend this place for a family getaway! We're already thinking about coming back either for next Christmas or in the summer.

About the host

Hosted by Natalia Rogers

Host profile image
We are Nancy and Ray Rogers. We have a lovely family with 3 adult children and a dog. We have lived on Maui, Hawai'i for over 20 years. Back in 2009, we came to Priest Lake to visit Nancy's sister (whose cabin is just down the street). We originally planned to stay briefly, but ended up extending our trip for the full week. We fell in love with Priest Lake instantly.

Our daughter Natalia now helps manage the property and communicate with guests, ensuring that every stay is comfortable and welcoming. Whether you’re visiting for a family vacation, a quiet retreat, or time on the water, we hope you’ll feel the same sense of peace and belonging that first drew us here.

Why they chose this property

After several years of dreaming about owning a cabin on Priest Lake, we were lucky enough to find the perfect one! This cabin was originally home to the Triplett family for several decades. Stories have passed down through their children, grandchildren and our neighbors; Dunbar on his short wave radio with his own special code to invite neighbors over for cocktails, Esther raking up the pine needles and baking her famous homemade cookies while Dunbar carved tikis. And WOW, what a special connection when we heard Esther's favorite places in the world are Priest Lake and Maui.

What makes this property unique

When we purchased the cabin in 2014, we wanted to honor those before us who loved Priest Lake and allowed us the immense privilege to carry on into the next generation. The cabin has been completely rebuilt using virtually every piece of the old cabin - from cabinets, to walls and floors - and now spans 2500 square feet, with a detached 3-car garage. Over two summers, with a lot of help from friends and family, piece by piece, we disassembled the old cabin, de-nailing every board and stacking them to be ready to use on the new cabin. The garage now has a beautiful 2 BR apartment upstairs. We call it the Treehouse, as the shimmering lake views through the trees from the living room and balcony make you feel as if you are living in the canopy with the squirrels and birds.
