About this cabin rental

Beautiful views of Lake Coeur d'Alene, and a 10 minute walk to Carlin Bay Resort & Marina. Our 3-bed, 3-bath, 3-level home sits on a hill 70 feet above the lake, looking out the floor to ceiling windows at Carlin Bay, the lake, and the surrounding hills. The newly renovated wrap-around deck provides spectacular views of the lake and beautiful sunsets.

Seasonal note - Last winter there were a record number of bald eagles that visited our area from Thansgiving to early January. For more info, check out the BLM's Lake Coeur d'Alene Eagle Watch page.

The Loft En Suite has a king bed and jetted tub. Main floor bedroom has full/ twin bunk-bed with additional twin-size pull-out trundle and adjoining full bath. Ground level bedroom has a queen bed and adjoining full bath. There is also a queen-size sofa-sleeper in the living area on the main floor that has a comfy memory foam mattress. And a twin-size day bed nestled in the corner of the main floor living area.

The king and queen beds have plush foam-over-spring mattresses. The bunk beds have memory foam mattresses.

The fully complemented kitchen has plenty of storage space for food and supplies, and a large granite-topped island providing plenty of room for food preparation and serving. Dining table seats 8 and there is additional seating at the high-top table and the kitchen island. An outdoor gas grill is also provided just outside the kitchen door on the newly renovated deck.

On the lake side of the house is a secluded sitting area with a propane fire table where you can enjoy the view and perhaps a glass of wine after a day on the lake or exploring local backroads and trails.

We recently installed StarLink satellite internet service (June 2024). Back-up service is provided by a Verizon mobile hot-spot. Verizon signal is excellent. All cell providers' signals are boosted with a We-Boost unit.

There is a public beach and boat launch next to the Carlin Bay Marina, providing easy access to the lake within a 3-minute drive (about a 10-minute walk). Free public parking is available directly across the street from the beach park.

Overall, it's a great place to get away and relax, or use as a base to do some boating, fishing, hiking, bird watching, and exploring. Don't be surprised to see a bald eagle or two soaring overhead or perched on a nearby tree limb...

Beautiful house. Kitchen more than fully stocked. Quiet neighborhood.
6.0 / 10.0Average·Aug 2025
It was ok. The neighbor is way too close, the driveway is small. The house is under construction. There was large amounts of mouse crap all over our motorcycles and atv that were left on the trailer in driveway and all over the deck and end tables. A faulty flapper in the toilet tank caused a lot of water damage which resulted in us not being able to use the power and having someone come over for 3 days to check on the damage. I planned this vacation to honor my son who passed in 2020, we made the best of it, but it was a little disappointing. There was definitely no turn around for a trailer like the website says. The owner also stated that it was possible that someone put too much toilet paper in the toilet, if that were to be true, the toilet would only flood until tank ran out of water. On a positive note the view is great!
