Josh was a super host. We had some initial issues at check in and he drove 2 hours out of his way to come and fix everything. You couldn't ask for a better host. The location itself is awesome. We came with a small group and invited some family over to boat and hit the beach with us and everyone loved it. We are already being asked by everyone who came out for the day to get this place booked again before the summer is over. The kids loved the playground in the back yard. The beach is close and if you book a slip with the private marina next door you can get to your boat in no time. Awesome vacation spot overall. As a side note : Josh found out our grandma who can barely walk needed help down to the beach and marina and he went out of his way to make special accommodations for her. Josh is amazing and extremely caring. He made this visit for grandma an amazing one.

About the host

Hosted by Joshua Thompson

Host profile image
We live in Pocatello but my wife grew up just down the road in Paris where we have family and come back often.

Why they chose this property

We had a home on the other side of the lake and found spending so much time in the car and in lines took away from our fun time. Having a private beach that is walkable makes this our dream location that we wanted to be able to share with others.

What makes this property unique

Being able to walk to the beach, come back to have a little take a nap or grab something to eat or drink and walk back down makes this house a true lake house.
