The Main House:
This 2219 sqft 3BR/2Bath is a beautiful lake house that is custom built with high-quality craftsmanship. You feel the quality the moment you walk through the door. The living room with its non-stop views has a large fireplace to cozy up by on winter days. The upper floor includes the master suite which has a small private deck. The guest room has a queen bed and T. There is a shared bathroom with a jetted tub. On the main floor, there is a large kitchen, breakfast nook and bar area with access to the side BBQ deck . The large deck, with breathtaking panoramic lake and mountain view, is perfect for entertaining and relaxing.

The Boat House & Beach*:
A quick and easy walking path from the house transports you to a charming & magical custom built 2-story beach cabin - a perfect place for artists, musicians or additional guests to be inspired! The 120' of lake frontage, dock and fire pit make spending your time at this pristine lake complete. The Boathouse has quickly become a guest favorite. It has a small half bath.

The Loft (included in nightly charge):
Steps from the main house is a second-story apartment above the main garage. There is a large bedroom, full bathroom, full kitchen and a living room with a pull out sofa for two.

A beautiful week on Priest Lake

Our multi-generational family had a glorious week sharing the beautiful cabin, boathouse, and guest apartment at Priest Lake, We sipped coffee on the deck while watching the day dawn on the lake; the grandsons (our three scampering squirrels) spent glorious afternoons diving off the deck, snorkeling, swimming, and knee-boarding behind the boat. Our family enjoyed delicious meals, played music in the boathouse, and made happy memories together that will last forever. Thank you for the beautiful accommodations!

Spectacular lakeside retreat

Gorgeous, homey property. The house is beautiful, very well-appointed and as I said, it feels like a home, not just a house (family digital picture unit on the wall was so great to watch as it cycled through pictures of the owners experiencing their property and surrounding area). Sitting waterfront on Priest Lake, the view of course is stunning. Great to wake up to and great to watch as the day morphs into night. We used this as our home base while we made day trips to the Upper Priest for hiking. It was so nice to come back to at the end of the day for peaceful respite. We cannot recommend this property enough and feel fortunate to have been able to call it home for several nights.

Fabulous property

We had a wonderful stay at Pure Vida - the setting of the property is beautiful, and the home is comfortable, spacious and well equipped. There is a lovely small beach with a firepit that we enjoyed, and the deck has an amazing view of the lake and mountains to the north. We traveled with small children and the home was safe for them. We would love to return!

Unbelievable cabin

This property is even better than it looks in photos. This part of the lake is so quiet and peaceful and the neighbors were all so respectful and friendly. Jackie and Claudio obviously put a lot of thought into what guests would need, down to providing flashlights in each room. I would absolutely recommend.

About the host

Hosted by Tracie

Host profile image

We are an Argentine/Italian family that loves creating music, boondock camping, fishing, cooking, international travel and life on the lake! And we especially love sharing our special home to all our friends and family... and you, our new friends!

Why they chose this property

We discovered this property in 2020 while camping in the beautiful northern Idaho panhandle. Of all the place in the Northwest we visited, Priest Lake was by far the one that stopped us in our tracks. After that visit we made it our mission to make this our vacation home.

What makes this property unique

The home was custom built in 1994 by the late Donald Pratt with the highest quality materials and craftsmanship. You feel the quality the moment you walk through the door. The living room with its non-stop views has a large custom built fireplace to cozy up by on winter days. It's situated on Copper Bay which has stunning direct true-north views towards the Selkirk Mountains and Canada - and the Twin Islands.
