Dog-friendly mountain retreat near skiing with lake view, hot tub, & balcony

Lakeview Chalet

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Beautifully located just outside downtown Sandpoint, this classic mountain chalet offers gorgeous, sweeping views of Lake Pend Orielle and Sandpoint and the surrounding treetops. You'll also be a quick and scenic drive from the shores of Lake Pend Oreille, the slopes of Schweitzer Mountain, Silverwood Theme Park, and the heart of Sandpoint itself.

Skier, hiker, or boating enthusiast, your focal point at this three-level home is the panoramic view, which you can take in from the wrap-around deck and the open great room with its two-story wall of windows. Spend your summers swimming in the lake, grilling on the deck, and basking in the comfort of central air conditioning, and your winters curled up by the crackling fire and watching movies on the flatscreen TV. There's a private laundry room to take care of your damp swimsuits or snowy ski clothes, a private hot tub to relax after a day on the slopes, a charming kitchen with every essential appliance (including a dishwasher), and a six-person dining room table with a grand view.

The house was a perfect weekend getaway for the family. Close to Schweitzer and Sandpoint. The house was cozy and warm. I most enjoyed sitting by the fire watching the snow fall. Would definitely rent again!

Pros: Kitchen is nice, well stocked with dishes & silverware Great deck with working Weber BBQ Beautiful view Deer & a Varied Thrush greeted us on the deck railing one morning Cons: All the stairs are difficult for seniors

10/10

The home is very comfortable with a nice wrap around deck & great view. Beds are comfortable. Garbage pickup is at the end of your stay…we stayed a month so had quite a bit of accumulated garbage, but they supplied heavy black garbage bags & we just left them in the garage. Nice the property is pet friendly.

Loved this private home with so much space and an awesome deck with a view of the Sandpoint valley. We had privacy from neighbors, a hot tub, and gas grill. So homey and very pleased with the accommodations. Every afternoon a doe and fawn would graze in back yard. Highly recommend booking Lakeview Chalet. Vacasa was quite helpful with prompt responses.

The lakeview chalet was a lovely home base for our trip to Sandpoint. The location honestly couldn’t be better! Close to downtown and grocery stores but still far enough away that it is quiet and private. You will not regret booking this place! The view and well appointed home will make you never want to leave! The third bedroom was a little farther away from the rest which I was not expecting and didn’t work for us because we had have got two little ones but I think older kids would think it was cool.

Handy location, nice view. Comfortable for 4 guests but not 5 or 6. 3rd bedroom is in the basement and you have to go through the garage to get upstairs to the bathroom. Not happy with the price. We had to pay $90 for hot tub use and we never used it. Also, an incredible number of extra fees, service fees etc. so the cost was way more than it should have been.

Beautiful home and location but we are not able to enjoy the view as hoped because they were painting the deck when we arrived!!! We couldn’t use the deck, hot tub, BBQ etc the entire 3 day stay. The primary reason we chose this place was for the deck and hot tub. And the local managers were not helpful- in fact we never even spoke with anyone except the Vacasa headquarters. They refunded a portion of our money but it didn’t change the fact that our plans were ruined because of their lack of planning.

The home is very cozy and very well appointed. My husband and I stayed for a week with our dog and skied at Schweitzer. The home has everything you need to feel completely comfortable. We really enjoyed the hot tub after skiing all day. The home was incredibly clean inside upon arrival which is important to us. The bed was very comfortable in the loft (did not use the one on the main floor). We would definitely recommend to anyone!

Had a perfect white Christmas at the cabin. Great location with beautiful views. The cabin had a very cozy feeling with the fire going. Also great location being close to town and Schweitzer. We would love to come back.

We loved the location in northern Idaho. Sandpoint is a quant town with everything you need. Close to states Washington, Montana and even Canada. We enjoyed the view from the deck and the hot tub. Fireplace was so great too. Thanks for the accommodations!

One of the best rentals we've done. The location is far enough away from town that you don't get the train noise, but close enough that you can be downtown in minutes. Very clean and well-cared for, well-stocked, comfortable all around. And a great view!

Beautiful property that has an amazing view of Lake Pend O'rielle and the city of Sandpoint. Central air conditioning made it comfortable in the warm August temperatures. We enjoyed the hot tub, the deck, cooking in the kitchen with views of the trees and lake. Bedroom in loft with bathroom upstairs (but note, no door, so not much privacy and if others are awake downstairs it might be disrupting). another bedroom downstairs with bathroom. The twin beds downstairs are in a small side room, not much light and no bathroom. You are car dependent. But it is a short ride down the hill to Sandpoint and the Lake; < 30" drive to mt. Schweitzer and pleasant walking on Janish Drive each morning. Be sure to check out Miller's country market down the road for bakery goods, delicious sandwiches, meat and pies! We really enjoyed this property and felt happy to come back each day after a full day of adventure in Northern Idaho,
