Little piece of paradise

We had an absolute amazing time at Shep and Joy's place. The water slide, garden, and kitty cat made being on the lake extra special. Shep and Joy were especially kind to our children. We will stay again!

Couldn’t ask for more

We had the pleasure of staying 3 nights at this beautiful location. Our trip took an unexpected turn with a storm and a nearly sunk boat. The property owner Shep and Joy went so far above and beyond to help us. We cannot thank them enough. Please do not hesitate to book your stay. Fishing, swimming, and paddle boarding from their dock will be fond memories for years to come.

Charming property with great views

A lovely base camp to spend a few days in the Sandpoint area. A 10-12 minute drive to downtown made for the perfect mix of seclusion while still having access to all that sandpoint offers. The hosts (Shep and Joy) are very friendly and welcoming.

A Serene Retreat

Shep and Joy have a beautiful home, it had everything we needed for a relaxing weekend away. Shep drew us a map and listed out the various xc skiing options for our weekend in Sagle, so helpful! And we loved soaking in the hot tub afterwards with that amazing view!

Gorgeous spot on the lake with the most gracious hosts

My husband, daughter, and I stayed here for three nights and had a wonderful time. The property is clean, beds are comfy, and you have access to the lakefront from their dock. We rented kayaks from our hosts, and they were helpful getting us out on the water. Shep and Joy are two of the nicest people you'll ever meet. Highly recommend staying here.
